Cruises.com.au strongly recommends our passengers take out comprehensive travel insurance when making a booking.

Doctors on board cruise ships are all international and the cost is not covered by Medicare.

If medical assistance is required on board it can end up being quite expensive. We recommend you purchase travel insurance as early as possible as it may cover your cancellation fees in the event of cancellation due unforeseen circumstances.

Please Note: If you are travelling to New Caledonia, please be advised that guests who do not hold international travel insurance that covers medical costs, repatriation and other expenses may be refused entry into New Caledonia.
