How can I make a reservation ?

Luxury-Car-Rental
  • There are several ways for you to access the agents and make a reservation. You can make a reservation online (via websites or emails), over phone or by fax. You will then receive a verification email confirming your reservation.

How soon or late can I make a reservation ?

  • You can make a reservation as soon as you know the date (preferably) and you can also rent a car at the last minute (however, you should make a reservation at least several days in advance for insurance verification and get the car available at the best condition).

Drivers with a disability ?

  • Can a driver with a disability rent a car?
    • Yes, at no extra cost. As long as the driver has a valid driver’s license and meet all driver qualification for example in age, insurance coverage…
    • Most of the agents offer hand controls and wheel-chairs for renters with a disability.

Cancellation

Can I make an hour rental ?

  • Even you only want to rent the car for an hour, you will be charged for a full day. Because the car will be out for a full day hence the agent can’t rent it to other customers.
