Domestic cruise travel insurance is available but not all companies seem to cover cruises. Many domestic (Australian) travel insurance policies do not cover medical and this is what is needed on a domestic cruise. Best advice is to shop around and check inclusions carefully.

Or find yourself a full annual policy that covers international and domestic and you'll be right! But it always pays to check the pds.

Every day I see more and more reason to "fire and forget" on my annual policy.

Agree with the annual international/domestic policy - much easier!
