But...but...but...he didn't miss the boat, you took your cruise and if you had bought the insurance, it would have been money wasted. OTOH, maybe you'd not of stressed as much knowing that had he not made the boat, you'd of been compensated.
It's my experience that most of the things people worry about never come to pass anyway.

Can I say that whilst you are making points against the purchase of insurance, the last point actually *makes* the case. You say ''that most of the things people worry about never come to pass anyway'', -Most things do not happen, BUT....that leaves the unlucky opportunity that 'some' do.
You cannot say 'everything we worry about will never come to pass'.
That's insurance you cover the possible risk however small. We insure our homes, our cars, often because we are told to, but we all think nothing will happen to us.
I post this as, I have seen too many times bad fate fall on nice people, Cruises have so many potential risks and possibilities, I posted some before.
Not recommending any insurance in particular, but against the cruise fare the small cost, is nothing, gives peace of mind, and I hope, no one ever uses it!
