Yes, if you have the right travel insurance policy, it could be well worth making a claim.
Medical treatment abroad can be eye-wateringly expensive, which makes a good travel insurance policy well worth claiming on. However, for other claim types, you need to factor in the policy excess. This is the amount you must contribute towards a claim.
For example, if you’re only claiming for a £50 bag but your policy excess is £100, it wouldn’t be worth making a claim. Make sure you read your policy wording carefully, as different claim types may have a different excess amount.
