In this video, John McCarthy answers the frequently asked question, “How do holiday accident claims work?”
Quick overview
First option is to seek compensation in the relevant country. You can pursue a case against the travel agent here in Ireland, but you must have booked the entire holiday as a package through them. Or you can pursue a claim against the insurance company for the driver once the insurance company has a representative here in Ireland. If you have an accident in a country that is outside the EU, then you will have to pursue a claim within that country.
