Super CDW, Super TP and LDW Insurances
Super CDW Coverage
This insurance completely eliminates the excess amount you would typically pay if the rental car is damaged (except for administration fees, which are directly charged by the car supplier). Be aware that similar coverage may occasionally be offered by insurance companies or third-party providers. Therefore, if your voucher states that it includes Super CDW insurance, ensure you do not purchase a duplicate coverage. You will not receive a refund for overlapping insurance policies.
Super TP Insurance
This insurance fully waives the excess in the event of a theft of the rental vehicle (excluding administrative fees collected directly by the car supplier). Keep in mind that a similar coverage might sometimes be presented to you by insurance companies or third parties. Thus, if your voucher indicates that it includes Super TP insurance, make sure to refrain from acquiring similar coverage. You will not be compensated for duplicate insurance policies.
Loss Damage Waiver
This type of insurance is commonly utilized in the USA and combines both the aforementioned insurances.
It is stressed that none of the insurance policies listed in the car voucher cover damages to: the lower chassis (as defined by the car supplier), clutch, upholstery, window glass, tire damage or repairs for flat tires, and any related indirect or incidental costs, towing of the vehicle, key replacement, or damage to the contents of the vehicle or the passengers.
These policies also exclude coverage for damages resulting from driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, reckless driving (according to the definition provided by the car supplier), driving on unpaved roads, force majeure events, leaving the car keys unattended, and car cleaning fees if the vehicle is returned excessively dirty as outlined above. Please note that, per European regulations, carrying a spare tire in the vehicle is not required; instead, a temporary repair kit is permitted until a tire swap occurs.
When you sign the Car Rental Agreement, the Car Supplier may propose additional insurance options, some of which may already be part of the Voucher. It is your duty to verify whether such insurance options are included in the Voucher. Be informed that if you decide to acquire additional insurance options under the Car Rental Agreement, you will be fully responsible for the expenses incurred for such options and will not be eligible for any reimbursement from Car Hire Brokers regarding the purchase of these additional options, even if they offer similar or overlapping coverage to that in the Voucher.
The car rental agreement does not provide medical insurance and/or coverage for bodily injury or property damage for the driver, any extra driver, and/or passengers in the rental car, including injuries resulting from road accidents that may occur while operating the leased vehicle. Consequently, you should independently secure such insurance coverage (typically referred to as PAI) in accordance with the appropriate insurance coverage conditions.
