Creator's Key Takeaways

if the scenario is that they did test positive again they get a refund but they are denied boarding okay

if you have flights booked to that destination or lauderdale or or miami right and all of a sudden god forbid you're denied boarding your travel insurance can kick in

clients really should include the cost of insurance into their vacation package so that it gives them that added peace of mind

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓If you test positive at the pier, ask to be re-tested after an hour to ensure it wasn't a false positive.
✓Always include the cost of travel insurance in your vacation package for peace of mind.
✓Check if your airline has change fees, as many have removed them due to the current environment.

Testing positive for Covid at the port — Ask to be re-tested after an hour; if still positive, you should receive a refund for the cruise.
Loss of non-cruise expenses (flights/hotels) — Purchase travel insurance to cover expenses like getting back home or hotel stays if flights need to be changed.
