Excess — this is the amount you are responsible for in the event of a claim. In other words, if you make a claim on your Travel Insurance Policy, the excess is the sum that will be deducted from your claim settlement. For example, if you make a successful claim for £500 and your excess is £75, you will receive £425, because you must fund the first £75 - your excess.
The excess level may vary depending on the Section of cover. For example the Cancellation and Curtailment Section may have a different excess to the Baggage Section, so check the excess levels in each Section.
