The DCL insurance only covers what you book through DCL. So since you bought your air separately, you need to buy extra insurance to cover that (and if you're traveling to your destination early or leaving late, that cost is also not covered unless you booked your pre/post-days through Disney).We bought the insurance through DCL for our Baltic cruise this summer. We bought our air separate form the cruise. Does our insurance cover our flights also or do I need to get a separate policy for them? I thought I read somewhere that it did, but can't find it in the policy info online.
and if you cancel your cruise for an uncovered reason, you get a credit with DCL for your cruise cost.
Sayhello
I have the insurance & flying in on free tickets using ff miles. I arrive 24 hours before the cruise. If for some unforseen reason we have major travel issues that prevent us from arriving in time for the cruise, can we cancel at the last minute & at least get to keep the credit for a future cruise?
That was the policy stated on DCL's web site a month ago....can't say if it's changed since then. It said that any amount not covered by insurance would be credited toward a future cruise.
I'm going to suggest you call DCL and get a copy of the insurance policy. That's the only way you're going to know for sure.that is what I thought I had read. I couldn't find a time frame in which you had to cancel by. I am assuming this means I can cancel 1 hour before the cruise leaves if I get stuck elsewhere.
Again, I sure don't plan on this happening, but know that on rare occassions people get delayed over 24 hours on a flight. I want to make sure before I spend the money on the insurance, that I would at least keep the value of my cruise for a future cruise.

I have a copy of it & just reread it & it isn't clear. I will call them & see if I can get an explanation.
You're right, I found it online, and it's not clear.I have a copy of it & just reread it & it isn't clear. I will call them & see if I can get an explanation.
If you purchase the Vacation Protection Plan and cancel your vacation for any reason not covered by the insurance plan, Disney Cruise Line will credit 100% of the non-refundable cancellation fee toward a future Disney Cruise Line vacation.
