Car Hire Terms of Service

Rental Terms

All car rentals at Manchester Airport are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement presented at the time of booking confirmation or vehicle pickup. This document outlines important terms, conditions, insurance coverage, fees, and your obligations related to the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.

Eligibility Criteria

Renting a vehicle at Manchester Airport:

• To hire a vehicle from Manchester Airport, you must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may differ based on the vehicle type, with possible extra charges for drivers under 25. A valid, full driving licence relevant to the vehicle category is required, held for the minimum duration outlined in the Rental Agreement. You must present valid identification and proof of your current address. Additionally, valid payment details and a security deposit are necessary, along with any further requirements specified in the Rental Agreement.

Booking and Payments

• Reservations for car hire at Manchester Airport can be completed via our website, by telephone, or directly at our airport kiosk. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. The remaining balance and a security deposit are usually collected upon vehicle pick-up. All prices are presented in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept all major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment platforms.

Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off

• At Manchester Airport, it is your responsibility to conduct a thorough inspection of the vehicle upon collection and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be prepared and signed at that time. Please return the vehicle in the same state as it was collected, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged appropriately. Ensure that the fuel level matches that at the time of collection, as refueling fees will be applied if it is returned with less fuel. Late returns may incur extra charges, so please inform us as soon as possible if you anticipate a delay. You will be accountable for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges that occur during your rental period, along with an administrative fee.

Insurance and Liability Terms

• All car rentals from Manchester Airport include basic third-party insurance. Specific coverage details and excess amounts can be found in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be offered to lower your financial liability. It is advisable to review these options thoroughly. You remain liable for any damage or loss up to the excess amount unless further insurance is purchased. Damage resulting from negligence or misuse is your responsibility, regardless of existing coverage.

Cancellation and Modifications

Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice provided. For precise information, consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or no-shows may incur additional charges, affecting your overall rental cost at Manchester Airport.

7. Restricted Activities

Prohibited Uses of Your Vehicle

• Use of the vehicle for illegal activities is strictly prohibited. Engaging in racing, rallying, off-roading, or any hazardous driving is not allowed. Transporting dangerous materials is forbidden. Sub-letting the vehicle or permitting unauthorized drivers is not permitted. The vehicle must not be operated under the influence of alcohol or drugs, and it should only be used for its intended purposes. Adhering to passenger and weight limits is essential, as is staying within the agreed geographical boundaries.

Breach of these terms may lead to rental termination and extra fees.

To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire at Manchester Airport will not be responsible for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, resulting from your use of our services.
