Tips To Get A Discounted Rental Car
Car hire is a popular means of transport in Spain, not only for frequent travellers or people who have their own vehicle in the garage, but especially for people on holiday in Spain. At many airports in Spain you will find a desk of multinational companies like Avis, Hertz, National or Europcar in the terminal building. But at popular tourist destinations like Malaga, Alicante, Almeria, Valencia, Gerona, airports on the Balearic Islands (Mallorca or Ibiza) and also on the Canaries (Tenerife, Gran Canaria etc.) you will also find a choice of local car hire companies with a similar philosophy as the low-cost airlines offering cheap all inclusive car rental prices. Amongst these car hire companies in Spain you will find names like Auriga Crown Car Hire, Sol Mar Rent a Car, Centauro Rent a Car, Record and several other companies, depending on your travel destination in Spain.
An important consideration, aside from the type of car you would like to rent, is the optional insurance coverage, also called CDW (Collision Damage Waiver). This service, which is relatively inexpensive, will cover any damages to the vehicle. Generally, if insurance is not purchased, the customer may be held financially responsible for any damages that occur with the car during the rental period stated on the rental agreement. Unlike the multinationals most local car hire company offer a fully inclusive insurance (CDW) without excess, which means that you do not have financial liability in case of an accident or damage to the rental vehicle. If the insurance does include an excess consider that, while on the road, anything can happen. Insurance coverage is often the only link between a holiday with complete peace of mind or considerable additional expenses in case of damages to the car or an accident.
