Question 1

Is it a good idea to hire a car at Richards Bay Airport, RCB

Accepted Answer

Renting a car at Richards Bay Airport, RCB 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 2

What happens if I damage a hire car at Richards Bay Airport, RCB?

Accepted Answer

If you damage a hire car, the Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) generally covers the cost of repairs. To avoid out-of-pocket expenses, ensure your insurance policy includes zero excess. If your CDW has an excess limit, you will be responsible for paying a portion of the repair costs. Usually, this amount is deducted from the deposit you provided when renting the car at Richards Bay Airport, RCB.

Question 3

Can I hire a car from at Richards Bay Airport, RCB and drop off at another location?

Accepted Answer

Yes, some car hire companies allow you to pick up your car from Richards Bay Airport, RCB and drop it off at a different location. Simply unselect 'Return to same location' when you search your deals with VoyageCopilot.

Question 4

What is the cost to hire an Mini at Richards Bay Airport, RCB for a week?

Accepted Answer

The price for renting an Mini at Richards Bay Airport, RCB is approximately MYR 161 for a week (MYR 135 per day), based on our data from the past 72 hours. However, prices can fluctuate frequently due to varying demand. To find the exact current price, start a search with us at VoyageCopilot.

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.

Question 6

Why do I need a credit card to hire a car at Richards Bay Airport?

Accepted Answer

A credit card is typically required to secure the hire and cover any additional charges, such as tolls, damages, or fuel, that may occur during the hire period. The card must be in the primary driver's name to ensure that the renter is financially responsible for the vehicle. In some locations, debit cards may be accepted, but they often require additional documentation or a credit check.

Question 7

What does car hire insurance cost at Richards Bay Airport, RCB?

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.

Question 8

What is the process for returning vehicles at Richards Bay Airport?

Accepted Answer

When returning the vehicle, make sure it is in the same condition as when it was rented and that the fuel tank is full. Follow the signs to the designated return area at the hire location.

Question 9

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 10
