What about additional insurance?
1) Personal Accident Insurance.
This insurance can be taken out directly, with an excess, from the local rental company. Prices can be obtained from the local rental company.
- PAI (Personal Accident Insurance): this additional insurance coverage can be bought at most rental offices throughout our network. This insurance increases the liability limit in the case of disability or death where the insured party is at fault.
- SUPER PAI: Extended personal accident insurance.
2) Loss, Theft or Damage to Possessions and/or Property.
In certain countries insurance coverage can be extended by means of an additional policy.
This policy covers the loss of or damage to your luggage and/or personal property. (PEC = Personal Effects Coverage)
Please note the terms and conditions offered by the local rental company, e.g. the costs of and cover provided under the insurance package.
3) Super LDW (Super Loss damage Waiver)
This additional insurance, which can be taken out with the local rental company, has 2 main functions:
Generally it covers the damage that would not otherwise be covered by the fully comprehensive insurance e.g.
- Damage due to failure to observe the general terms and conditions of rental, especially damage caused by driving on unmaintained roads.
- Breach of the provisions of clause 22 of the general terms and conditions.
- In cases of wilful misconduct or gross negligence, particularly where capability is impaired due to alcohol, illegal drugs or medication.
- Loss of or damage to the car keys.
- Damage to the tIres, glass, roof, chassis or oil sump.
- In all cases where the local insurance company refuses to meet the claim
-The excess payable under a package with excess will not be refunded in the case of damage.
- Loss resulting from the theft of personal belongings left in the rented car and other costs, e.g. vehicle recovery, hotel etc., and the loss of personal belongings.
It eliminates the need for an excess.
Fee for young drivers:
Certain countries require an extra fee for young drivers (e.g. under the ages of 21, 25) to be paid. Please take note of the Terms of Lease to see if this pertains to your rental.
Additional Driver
All potential drivers of the rental car must be included in the rental agreement. This is to ensure the insurance cover and liability are valid. Depending on the country of rental, there may be a charge for the inclusion of an additional driver.
