Cars are booked by group (View our car grouping

It is important that you choose your car group according to your
individual needs (e.g. number of persons, luggage etc). Changing the car at the
time of delivery IS NOT ALWAYS POSSIBLE. If the vehicle supplied is unaccepted we will try to replace it. If this is impossible (especially in the peak
periods) then you will be allowed to cancel the booking by paying 3 days
rental plus delivery expenses.

22. If my flight is late arriving at the airport will your rep. wait ?
It is important that you enter your arrival flight number and
estimate arrival time
when booking your car. If you have given us a valid flight number and your
flight is confirmed to still be arriving on the given date, our
representative will normally wait for you even if there is a delay. He/She
would not wait if after landing you do not show up after 60 minutes. In any
case please use the emergency telephone number which will be supplied in our
confirmation email.

23. What happens if the booked car does not fit in my luggage?
It is your responsibility to you choose the car group according to your individual
needs (e.g. number of persons, luggage etc) before booking. Changing the car at
the time of delivery is not always possible. In the event that your luggage will not fit in
then you will need to hire a taxi on the spot, at your expense. In such case
our representative will be off assistance.
