We have a “Full to Full” policy regarding the fuel use of our cars. We deliver the vehicle with a full tank, it is the customer responsible for refueling the used fuel before returning the vehicle. If the vehicle is returned with less fuel, we will charge 2€/liter to cover the missing fuel. This amount will be deducted from the cash Security deposit.
Please note that you can only cancel your booking up to 48 hours before the pick-up date. No refunds are available for cancelations made within 48 hours of the pick-up date. Bookings made less than 48 hours before the pick-up date cannot be canceled.

A maximum grace period of 30 minutes will be granted (excepted from this ruling are any late pick-ups that result from a delayed flight arrival if a flight number is mentioned in the booking).

The Excess is the amount that you are liable to pay if your rental car is damaged or stolen.
If you have a Collision Damage Waiver, Theft Waiver and Third Party Liability included in your booking, there will most likely still be an excess. In these cases, the excess is the amount you are liable for if there is damage or theft to the rental car during your rental.
When you go to pick up your car, the car rental company will place a hold of funds for the excess amount on the main driver’s credit card as a deposit in case of damage. This hold will be removed when the car is returned with no new damage, but the amount could take a few days to be available in your account.
In the event your rental car is damaged or stolen during your rental period, the amount needed to cover this will be taken from your held excess funds. This amount will not be refunded if you have only chosen Limited insurance cover.
To check the excess amount for the car you are interested in renting, please read the Terms and Conditions for the specific rental.
If you already have a booking, your excess is outlined in your rental conditions and on your voucher, both of which can be accessed through the Manage Booking section of our website.
To explain what Excess Cover is, it’s important to understand what an ‘excess’ is. Please see our ‘What is an Excess’ FAQ for more information.
The excess amount will be determined by the rental company and can vary according to where you live, your destination, your age and the type of vehicle you’re renting. If your rental vehicle is damaged during your rental period, you’re liable to pay the excess amount to cover the cost of damage and repairs. However, if you purchase an Excess Reimbursement policy, this will reimburse the excess you paid in the event of damage occurring, as well as including a wide range of additional benefits*.
