Question 2

Should I purchase extra insurance when renting a car at Caen Airport, CFR?

Accepted Answer

All hire companies require valid insurance for financial protection; without it, your hire request may be denied. You might not need additional insurance if you already have coverage that applies to international hires for your chosen car type or class, or if your credit card provides insurance for hires abroad. If these conditions do not apply, purchasing extra protection is essential. You can secure your deposit by buying Excess Fee Insurance during booking on our website or opting for Full Coverage Insurance or Excess Reduction at the hire counter.

Question 3

Is it a good idea to hire a car at Caen Airport, CFR

Accepted Answer

Renting a car at Caen Airport, CFR can be a good idea depending on your travel needs and preferences. If you plan to explore areas outside the city or need the flexibility of having your own vehicle, then renting a car might be beneficial. However, consider the cost, traffic conditions, and availability of public transportation, as in some cities it may be more convenient and cost-effective to use public transit or ride-sharing services. Always check the local driving laws and ensure you're comfortable with the driving conditions before deciding to hire a car.

Question 4

Can someone else drive my hire car?

Accepted Answer

For insurance coverage to remain valid, any additional drivers must be included in your hire agreement. If someone who is not listed drives the car, it could void the hire contract, and the insurance provider may refuse to cover any damage to the vehicle.

Question 5

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 6

Question 7

Do I need a valid passport to hire a car at Caen Airport?

Accepted Answer

A valid passport is typically required for international customers renting a vehicle. For domestic renters, a valid driver’s license is usually sufficient. In the United States and Canada, U.S. and Canadian residents generally only need a valid driver’s license. In Europe, residents of EU countries can often hire with just a driver’s license from their home country. Always verify the specific identification requirements with the hire company, as they can vary based on the country and region.

Question 8

What are the age requirements for renting a car from Caen Airport

Accepted Answer

The minimum age to hire a car at Caen Airportis typically is 21, but this can vary by region and hire company. In some countries, like the United States and Canada, drivers under 25 may incur a young driver surcharge. In Europe, the minimum age is often 18, though surcharges may still apply for drivers under 25. Conversely, in countries like Australia, the minimum age is usually 21, and additional fees may apply for younger drivers. Always check the specific hire company's policy for detailed information, as requirements and surcharges can differ significantly between providers and locations.

Question 9

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.
