Passenger & Baggage Protection - Travel
Care Free
Sometimes even the best made plans can go wrong. An emergency
can force you to cancel your cruise, your baggage could be
delayed or lost, or you could have a medical emergency during
your cruise. That's why Norwegian Cruise Line offers Travel
Care Free, a travel protection program designed especially
for NCL guests. From trip cancellation to baggage protection,
Travel Care Free offers a wide range of travel protection
and assistance services so that you can plan and enjoy your
vacation with total peace of mind.
Travel Care Free Coverage
