Buy within 21 days of your deposit

Polar expeditions book 12-18 months in advance. Travel insurance with pre-existing condition waivers must be purchased within 14-21 days of your initial trip deposit to qualify. Delays risk denial of coverage for unstable medical conditions during high-risk activities like Zodiac operations and polar landings.
