Cruise Insurance Missed Ports

On our recent Baltic cruise we mised two ports due to bad weather.  Our insurance have paid us the £100x2 each as was in our policy.   I am shortly going to search for our next annual cruise policy and want one which offers more compensation for missed ports.   I cant see any easy comparison sites which detail the level of cover per port.

    Comparison sites cater for the 90%, the other 10% have to do leg work themselves or speak to a broker.  There are arguably plenty more frequently used sections that aren't filters/exposed by aggregators that would be higher up the list than missed port compensation levels if any company was wanting to expand the options displayed

    Depends how much more.  LV is 50% more at £150.

    Aviva is also £150 per person, per port cancelled.
    #2 Saving for Christmas 2024 - £1 a day challenge. £325 of £366

    I know its a first world problem but £100 for missing a port didnt feel enough when we then missed a second port.  It meant 5 days in a row at sea.   Hardship I know but getting off is often the best bits

    I assume the cruise operator doesn't offer any form of compensation for missing/changing ports.

    Thee's a very active cruise board on Tripadvisor.

    Maybe worth asking on there.
