Doing our own travel insurance, any suggestions?

[cumickey]

We did'nt take Disney's travel insurance at booking time so I am about to look for one before our final payment next week. I would love to know what other people did, and any things to look out for, what the prices were and sites or phone #'s. Any advice appreciated :confused:

TIA

If you belong to AAA or AARP, they both offer good travel insurance that we've used in the past. FYI -- most of the prices have gone up since 9/11 so the Disney insurance might not be as expensive as it seems.

Good luck!

We booked ours through csatravel.com. It came recommended through these boards. We paid around $75 for a family of 4 on the 4 nt. cruise and it also included our 2 nights at WDW, but no air, since we drove. Luckily, we didn't need it, but it gave us peace of mind.

Try the site www.insuremytrip.com They will give you quotes from many different companies, and you can then make your choice. We booked through CSA last year and had no problems..they were great, but I would steer away from them now personally, as when I talked to them last week directly over the phone, they said they "are not really booking cruise insurance now"..I said I had gotten a quote from them over the internet, so how could that be, and they said "they did not really understand that themselves"...made me a bit weary of them, and there are some others around you could pick from...
