Car rental insurance and fees: what to look out for in Crete

Couple checks rental car before pickup in Crete - JK Tours

The most common anxiety when renting a car isn't about the car itself. It's the fear of hidden fees and what exactly the insurance covers if something goes wrong. The truth is simple: if you know what to ask before you book, you can avoid almost all unpleasant surprises. Let's take a look at them one by one.

What does the price actually include?

A price per day doesn’t always tell the whole story. Before you book, check whether the price includes insurance, VAT, unlimited mileage and car delivery. When all of these are included, the comparison with other companies becomes fair. When they are missing, the cheap price on the homepage usually goes up at the end of the booking.

Safety: what CDW, waiver and warranty mean

Basic damage coverage is called CDW and is available almost everywhere. The key is the deductible, which is the amount you are responsible for in the event of damage. The lower the deductible, the less risk for you. Also ask if a deposit is required on the card and how much, because this binds an amount for the duration of the rental.

The fees you should look for

Most hidden charges are well-known and recurring:

  • Airport fee, often added at the counter.
  • Fee for a young driver under a certain age.
  • Additional guide.
  • Delivery or return to a different city.

None of these are illegal. You just want to know them from the beginning, not discover them at the end. All the relevant details about us are on frequently asked questions.

Fuel: full-to-full is the fairest

The most transparent fuel policy is full-to-full. You pick up the car with a full tank and return it full, so you only pay for the fuel you use. Avoid schemes where you pay for a full tank up front and return the car empty, as this is rarely a good deal.
