Conversely, in countries like Australia, the minimum age is usually 21, and additional fees may apply for younger drivers.

Question 4

What information is included in the car hire contract?

Accepted Answer

The hire contract normally includes comprehensive details such as the terms and conditions of the hire, insurance coverage options, hire duration, and payment details. It also outlines any additional services requested, such as GPS or child seats, and specifies policies on fuel, mileage limits, and fees for additional drivers. Additionally, the contract normally includes information about responsibilities for property damage, procedures for returning the vehicle, age requirements, and accepted forms of identification, like a valid driver's license and credit card.

Question 5

Do I need to return the vehicle with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

The fuel policy you select will determine your fueling responsibilities. With a full-to-full or same-to-same option, you need to return the car with the same amount of fuel it had at pickup. If not, you'll be charged for the missing fuel at a rate higher than the local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank. This means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, the cost will be higher overall since you'll be charged the local gas price minus a per-gallon discount, leading to an increased total cost.

What does car hire insurance cost at Birmingham Airport, BHM?

Accepted Answer

The cost of car hire insurance depends on the deal you choose and can vary significantly between booking sites. Different providers offer varying levels of coverage, including Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), Theft Protection, and Third-Party Liability. Additionally, the amount of excess (the amount you're responsible for in case of damage or theft) you select will also affect the insurance price. Some options may offer zero-excess insurance for added peace of mind, though these may come at a higher cost. Start your car hire search today to explore and compare the different coverage options available to find the best fit for your needs.
