Carnival to require unvaccinated guests sailing from Florida to have travel insurance

Carnival Cruise line will require passengers who are not vaccinated and sailing from Florida to get travel insurance. Carnival Cruise says they have been sailing with 95% of guests and crew vaccinated since the Fourth of July Weekend. The cruise line says unvaccinated guests will need to have travel insurance for sailings departing on July 31. This will not currently be required for children under the age of 12, as they are ineligible for vaccines. Guests who are unvaccinated must provide proof of a valid travel insurance policy when they check in that has a minimum of $10,000 per person in medical coverage and $30,000 for emergency medical evacuation and without COVID-19 exclusions. Carnival will require the policy to name the unvaccinated guest as policy holder or beneficiary. Unvaccinated passengers who don’t have travel insurance will not be let on the ship and will not get a refund. Royal Caribbean previously announced a similar requirement.
