Deadly Cruise Ship Virus? What Families Should Check Before They Sail.. #alaskacruise #disneycruise
3 passengers have died after a suspected hantavirus outbreak on the MV Hondius, an expedition cruise ship. This is not to scare families away from cruising, but it is a serious reminder to check your travel insurance before you sail. For cruise travel, families should understand medical evacuation cover, overseas medical limits, cruise disruption, cancellation terms, pre-existing condition rules and what happens if illness occurs far from home. General information only — not personal insurance advice. Always read the PDS and TMD and decide what cover suits your own trip.
