Re: Cancelling a cruise and trip insurance Posted on: Fri, 13 Jan 2006 23:01:21 GMT

Dick... it might be an interesting exercise for you to add up all you have
spent on travel insurance over the years and compare that to what you got
from TravelGuard now.

Each of us has to decide on our own risk factors and our willingness to be
exposed to however much potential loss.

I NEVER had insurance until right after 9/11. Since then I've had it for
some trips and not for others, but never because I thought I might have to
cancel.
