Try Insurancewith, we cruise and always use them. It's best to phone them rather than doing it online.

Try medicaltravelcompared.co.uk - they are a comparison site for a large number of insurers and their online form is very easy to fill out (unless, of course, you have a lot of conditions!)

Good Luck!

Try Avanti , we are insured with them, we pay for an annual cover including cruise.

My husband has 7 stents and a difib and pacemaker fitted, after a heart attack

ring them, they are very good to talk to and any questions you are not sure if they will help you with very nice team to speak to.

Hi, I have just got insurance for my mum and mother inlaw both with serious heart conditions with "Insurance Choice". we are taking them on a cruise and found it very difficult to insure as condition and length of cruise was challlenging. Company were just amazing and seem to cover just about everything. Give them a call as they really put both mums at ease and now they are both looking forward to our Cruise. They were recommended by quite a few friends with heart conditions...Good Luck with Insurance Choice
