I Lost Thousands… And Nobody Did Anything Wrong
I just lost $3,500 on a cruise I never got to take - and the wild part is, nobody did anything wrong. No refund battle. No villain. Just a hard lesson about how travel insurance actually works when it comes to pre-existing conditions. I was booked on the media/trade preview sailing of Royal Caribbean's brand new Legend of the Seas - flights, a Rome hotel, a Barcelona-Malaga train transfer, tours, the works. A family illness meant we had to cancel, and because it was pre-existing in nature, travel insurance didn't cover a cent of it. In this video I break down exactly what we lost, why none of it was covered, and the three things most travellers don't realise about how pre-existing condition exclusions actually work - before you find out the hard way like I did. This isn't a rant. It's not a "travel insurance is a scam" video. It's the honest, accountability-first breakdown I wish more creators put out there. If you're planning a cruise or any major trip, understanding this before you book could save you thousands.
