Child Seats

| Child seats are paid for locally but must be pre-booked. There are 3
types:- |
- Baby Seat - up to 12 months
- Child Seat - 1 to 3 years
- Booster Seat - over 3 years
|
| By law,
children under three years must
travel in baby or child seats.
Depending on their size,
children up to the age of five
may be required to use booster
seats. The cost of all
seats is 5.95 Euro
per day (42 Euro per week). We
recommend you bring your own
seats. Most airlines do not
charge excess baggage on them. |
|
Deposits
|
| A local deposit for petrol and insurance excess
(see below) is required. It is returned when you return the car undamaged
and with the same amount of petrol. Most clients complete a credit card
voucher, which is returned to you to destroy and not processed under normal
circumstances. |
Accommodation Delivery
|
| Cars can be delivered and collected
at all locations in Algarve and Lisbon area at
no extra cost. |
Additional Insurance
|
| If you opt for additional insurance to limit the
risk of paying the excess, this is arranged and paid for when you collect the
car. |
|
|
Your Maximum Liability
|
| Excess is dependent on the car; please see the table below. Excess
is paid if:- |
- the car (tyres, windows, keys
etc.) is damaged or lost, except
if as of a result of an accident
caused solely by another driver
- the driver causes damage to
other cars resulting in a claim.
|
| If the terms and
conditions of the car hire contract
are violated, the insurance cover is
invalidated. It is a term of the
contract to report accidents to the
police. |
|
Reduce Your Liability
|
| It is possible to take out an additional insurance to reduce the
possibility of paying the excess; please see the table below. The
additional insurance excludes:- |
- damage to cars while under the influence of drugs or alcohol
- damage to tyres, wheels, roofs, windows, car interior, undercarriage
- wilful damages
- lost keys.
