If you have an American Express Card sign up for their premium protection plan. Charge the car to your card and you have full coverage. I had a car broken into last fall in Southern France and all charges were covered by the plan (lots of e-mails, but basically omni royal hotel new orleans I was a bystander). They do a good job managing the coverage omni royal hotel new orleans and the rental company
What don't you understand? That gives you coverage for damage to the car and the misc. small fees you get when renting a car in France. There are some things excluded from their insurance coverage on the car but there isn't anything you can do about it (damage to the undercarriage).
That extra "super insurance" Serenity Pack will then also cover some or all of the deductible for the collision insurance and some things regular collision doesn't cover (the tires and windows). It's up to you as to whether the risk of those fees is worth whatever it costs (I believe their website omni royal hotel new orleans says 10 euro a day). It also says it only halves the deductible owed (the "excess") rather than paying omni royal hotel new orleans all of it, and only for certain car categories (compact, omni royal hotel new orleans economy and a few others). I can't actually find what the amount of the excess or deductible is on their website, I suppose it varies by country and type of car, but it would be hard to make a decision without knowing omni royal hotel new orleans how much insurance that is giving you for that extra 10 euro a day.
From what I've heard, some people don't understand the gas charge situation from Europcar, and there are some options or fees dependent on what you choose when renting and if you return it full (or something, don't know the full details as I have never had a problem and I've gotten a Europcar rental several times using AUtoeurope or Kemwel). I just always returned the car with a full tank and that was that.
I've had some incidents; blown tire (covered omni royal hotel new orleans by CC), dings and dents, usually from a parking lot, where I've paid as much as 200 Euros. Given it was a 2 week rental, cheaper than the premium insurance.
7. Secondary insurance coverage such as what is offered by credit cards. This means you pay initially for any and all damage and are then reimbursed by the credit card company for what, in their estimation, it the covered amounts.
Thanks a lot. Each one of you have give me valuable information. I will carefully read all these and check with my credit card company. These policies omni royal hotel new orleans may not exist in Indian credit cards. Anyways let me check with them. i will contact omni royal hotel new orleans Kemwel and autoeurope too.
What i am thinking omni royal hotel new orleans now is, i will be there in paris on 7th april. So i will visit a car rental omni royal hotel new orleans office and rent a car there itself.I also need to park the car that day. SO not sure of the parking space too.
exactly, Autoeurope will give you an option to buy insurance or not, you can get two quotes. You can buy it separately, of course, I bought it once as part of my travel insurance rather than through Kemwel as it was a better deal. But I don't know what travel insurance policies are available to INdians, of course.
I'm actually surprised omni royal hotel new orleans credit cards in India don't offer auto rental insurance as that is a part of Visa/Mastercard's policies, not a particular bank or card issuer. But I suppose they could not include that in India if it's a big problem there (which I can see it could be).
basically i need to start from paris early in the morning. Say around 7:30. These rental agencies open only by 9am.Anyways while returning back i can return only after 12pm. So ther will be extra day added . it doesn't make a difference.
No, you can't just walk into AutoEurope in Paris and rent one. AutoEurope isn't even a car rental agency - it's a broker; it's not like they have an office and cars in Paris. You call them or go online and arrange for a rental, and then they will tell you which company you'll get the car from - Europcar, Hertz, Cit , whatever. You'd better omni royal hotel new orleans call them now if you're looking to get a car on April 7.
To deal with the parking issue, what I would do is go to whatever rental outfit is giving you the car the night before and fill out the paperwork and get the keys. Ask them if you can leave the car in their lot for the night; I'm guessing they will say yes (if not, you have another major issue of finding parking in Paris); then go back and get it early the next morning. Unless the lot is locked, that might work.
The car will be turned over to you with a full tank of gas. You will be expected to return it with a full tank, too. I have no idea where you're driving to, so can't help with particular fuel stations.
Also, hint for all (told to me by the police after a break in). When you park leave the glove box open as well as any center console box and the back cover for a hatchback...show the thieves you have nothing in the car to steal.
