Hi Boaterjohn, a cruise to Scandinavia sounds a lovely idea.
Some years ago when I was going round in circles trying to find insurance, one of the companies who'd turned me down suggested I phone the British Insurance Brokers Association. BIBA took all my details and then found me an insurance company who would take me on. The company they found was WorldWide Insurance and I've insured with WW Ins. again since so haven't needed to use BIBA again, but I'd recommend them as a starting point as they saved me a lot of phoning and stress at the time. Their website is biba.org.uk, telephone 0370 950 1790 or email enquiries@biba.org.uk
As I said, that was many years ago now, but I hope you find they are still as helpful.
Hi. Just bought reasonable annual travel insurance from Free Spirit. Very easy to apply too. Honestly thought l would be refused as l am 75 years old, have bronchiectasis, Rheumatoid Arthritis and a heart problem. Bought online. Regards Maureen.
Hope you both enjoy a lovely cruise to Scandinavia.
Last year we had two river cruises booked (Danube and Elbe) and had to cancel both as I wasn’t well enough. The company were marvellous (Viking) as they refunded our deposit both times, minus a small admin fee. We thought our future plans would have to stay in the UK as my cancer is terminal. Don’t know if it makes a difference..... Joan
Many thanks for your input and of course so sorry to learn of your diagnosis- life really is a bit of a b.t.h at times so one has to do what one can whilst one can. Good Luck
