Diamond Dog Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 There's some great deals with Hotwire, for car rental in Las Vegas in July. However, I'm travelling from the UK. I like to pre purchase my LDW (and normally a 'free' tank of fuel & another named driver) at the same time as my car hire.Can this be done with Hotwire and, if so, how?
thereuare Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 No, your rental does not cover insurance, but the rental company will be more than happy to have you purchase it at the counter (it's a very high margin item for them)I don't know anything about them, but a while back a board member mentioned this site which may help you if you rent frequently or intend to on an upcoming trip: www.insurance4carhire.com Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
Diamond Dog Posted January 31, 2008 Author Report Posted January 31, 2008 Ok. What I'm wondering is if there is anyway to know that insurance cost prior to hiring the vehicle (without the insurance)? One could then ascertain the total cost, in comparison to pre-paying in the UK.
thereuare Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 No, you won't know the insurance cost until after the purchase is made. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
