Cruise West Peace of Mind
Travel Protection Plan

With Cruise West's Peace of Mind Plan, you are covered from the time you purchase the plan right up to the day you depart, and right to the end of your trip. When you travel with Cruise West, you travel with complete confidence. With the Cruise West Peace of Mind Plan you are protected with one of the best travel protection plans available anywhere and you also receive the Cruise West "Cancel for Any Reason" Waiver Benefit!

Under the Travel Protection Plan provisions, you're covered even if you must cancel or interrupt your trip due to a Pre-Existing Condition if you purchase the plan within seven (7) days of your initial deposit/payment for your cruise and you are not disabled from travel at the time you make your plan payment.

When you purchase the Cruise West Peace of Mind Plan and must cancel your cruise before your scheduled departure for any reason not covered by the Travel Protection Plan provisions, you will receive a Cruise West Travel Certificate* for the penalty amount with the balance of the refund, if due, made by either check or credit card credit.

Please note: The Cruise West Peace of Mind Plan does not cover penalties associated with air arrangements or other travel services not provided by Cruise West. Certain exclusions and limitations apply to the insurance benefits.

*Cruise West Travel Certificates are non-transferable, not redeemable for cash and may be applied to any Cruise West departure within one year of the date the issuance of the certificate.
