A Guide to Insurance and Damage Packages in Car Rental

One of the most frequently asked questions when renting a car is about insurance and damage packages. Choosing the right package determines how much you would pay out of pocket in the event of damage.

Standard Comprehensive Cover and Excess

Standard comprehensive cover is included in every rental. However, most comprehensive policies carry an "excess" amount; that is, for minor damage a certain sum is the customer's responsibility. Damage packages reduce this excess or remove it entirely.

Mini Damage Package

This is an economical option covering common types of damage such as tyres, glass and headlights. It is ideal for short city journeys.

Full Damage Package

It offers broad protection by significantly lowering the excess. It is preferred for long journeys and long-term rentals.

Premium Damage Package

This is the package with no excess, providing the widest coverage. It is the best choice for those who want a completely worry-free drive.

You can easily compare and add these packages on the booking screen. Choose your car and decide on the protection that suits you best.
