Creator's Key Takeaways
none of the policies covered all of the expenses or unused Cruise fare none of them came even close but one policy did Cover a lot more than the rest
Air Canada and by extension Pearson was allowed to give the hundreds of passengers who missed their cruise ship a big fat zero because of a big fat loophole in Canada's Airline friendly passenger rights regulations
the cheapest one that's included with the premium credit card covered the most expenses which was very surprising
all in all it would be an understatement to say that we're disappointed with close to every aspect of how our experience was handled

After an epic flight delay on Air Canada caused 4 fellow passengers and I to miss our cruise ship, we learned 13 expensive lessons about travel insurance and Canadian flight delay compensation. The hardest lesson was that most of our travel insurance policies didn't cover most of the costs to meet the ship - including the insurance products sold by the cruise line (Princess Cruises). Only one policy came close to covering most of the expenses in the end - and it was the option we least expected. The travel insurance products in our group were: Princess Vacation Protection, Princess EZAir, RBC WestJet World Elite MasterCard and RBC Deluxe Single Trip. #cruisetips #travelinsurance 📽️ RELATED VIDEO I missed my cruise ship!
