Antarctica expeditions require insurance purchased within 14-21 days of initial deposit to qualify for pre-existing condition waivers. Scenic's high cancellation penalties (up to 100% within 90 days) combined with extreme medical evacuation costs averaging $100K+ make immediate coverage essential. Policies must name Scenic as provider with proof submitted pre-departure.
