However, as thousands of people every year find out, it pays to be prepared for the possibility of things like lost baggage, travel delays, cancellations and above all medical emergencies. The most expensive claims that a travel insurer faces are almost always for medical expenses and every year there are claims settled in excess of €100,000. No-one wants to think about the possibility of getting injured or falling ill whilst on holiday but with eye watering figures like that it pays to take out good cover.
