Travel Insurance

Whenever going on cruises we do it. It's usually less than $50 and well worth the peace of mind god forbid something happens and we can't make it or the cruise gets canceled. When spending a couple grand on a trip the extra $100 or so is a small expense in the grand scheme of things.

Good to know. I'll inquire about it.

Make sure you read ALL THE FINE PRINT.
Make sure you are well informed as to what it covers and how much.
Don't accept what anyone tells you is covered.
Read it first.

I would first ask your insurer where you stand as it is, and what do you want to be insured for moving forward. What are your concerns? Bringing a suitcase of Patek's?

He seeks it to cover the trip expense if interrupted/cancelled as he is going to travel at a very bad time of the year in the Caribbean (that dreaded "H" word that I don't want to mention as June is around the corner).

Most travel insurance policies I've reviewed have been extremely limited...its not covering you oversleeping and missing your flight, etc. I can't get into specifics without seeing what you'd actually be getting, but make sure you read it carefully and understand what you are buying. I'd bet it isn't a whole lot of coverage.
