Travel insurance/DVC Alaska

[Minybear]

Going on our Alaska cruise in August and this cruise is through our DVC points. I need insurance to cover airline, cruise, and my points. I can get regular trip insurance but it seems they don't cover our points. Need sugestions please.

I think the insurance through DVC only covers you based on a dollar amount. I know that for DVC stays, it's a value of about $5 pp. I'd suspect less in this situation. I doubt you'll be able to get any insurance company to cover the points themselves. They should however cover an appropriate dollar amount based on the applicable discounted cash price.

Thanks Dean. I called DVC today and looks like we will be doing trip insurance to cover our points for this trip through their carrier.
