Hire car insurance

[trashcanman]

Hi All

The wording on my hire voucher states:
"Rental includes LDW, unlimited mileage, SLI $1Million, Airport fees, handling fees, UMP Insurance".

Is this what I need? I get confused with the acronyms so want to make sure I have it all covered.

Also, when I get to the hire desk do I answer yes or no if they ask if I want to buy the gas?

Cheers for any advice

Yes, that insurance seems to cover all the bases.

I normally do buy a tank of gas. The hire companies seem to charge a small premium for this compared to the cost of local gas stations. However, it does save a bit of hassle on the final day where you would otherwise be looking to fill up the car before you returned to the airport. Whatever you do, don't decline the offer of the tank of gas AND take the car back less than full. Under those circumstances the hire company will cyharge you a significant premium for not returning the car with a full tank.

Regards
