Cancellations

Travel Insurance
We strongly recommend that clients ensure they take out the highest level of Travel Insurance.
Protection Packages
Personal Injury The Vehicle has third party insurance cover. It is likely that any other
vehicle involved in an accident also has third party insurance cover. Depending on the
circumstances of the accident, you may be entitled to claim for your personal injury against
the third party insurance of the party responsible for the accident. The extent of such
third party insurance varies and Apollo strongly recommends that you take out your own
Personal Injury Travel Insurance. If you are responsible for the accident the Vehicle's third
party insurance should cover you for your liability except where you have committed a breach
of the Vehicle's third party insurance eg: drink driving.
Property Damage The Vehicle is insured for damage to it or damage to the property of a third party. However you are responsible up to the amount of the applicable Liability for the cost of such damage to third party property, or to the rented Vehicle. You are also responsible for the cost of demurrage for the period the Vehicle is unavailable due to repairs. The Liability applies in respect of each claim, not per rental. The Liability is applicable regardless of who is at fault and must be paid at the time the accident is reported to Apollo, not at the completion of the rental Period. The Liability will be refunded if Apollo is successful in recovering the cost of the damage from the third party. Standard Liability Apollo's rental charge includes a Standard Liability of NZ$ 2000.00 A Bond of NZ$ 2000.00 will be collected from you at the time of entering into this Agreement. Reduction Options
The Standard Liability can be reduced by purchasing one of the following Reduction Options:
Reduction Option A Liability of NZ$ 250.00 applies. You can purchase this Option by paying to Apollo NZ$ 18.00 per day. The maximum amount payable by you for this Option is NZ$ 720.00 With this Option a Bond of NZ$ 250.00 will be collected. Bond
On pick up of the vehicle the Bond is payable by you to Apollo by cash, traveller's cheques or by
an open signed credit card (Bankcard, Visa or MasterCard) imprint with an authorization obtained
for the amount of the Bond. Personal or company cheques are not accepted.
Note: If the Bond is given in cash or traveller's cheques then your passport must be presented on pick up and the refund will be by Apollo's cheque. The Bond is fully refundable when the Vehicle is returned to the Nominated Location on time, is full of fuel and all other terms of the Agreement have been complied with by you. If there is damage to the Vehicle on its return, the Bond will be used to cover the cost of such damage up to the amount of your relevant Liability. However if you breach the terms of the Rental Contract and the Bond is insufficient to cover the damage you will be charged for any extra cost and you shall pay that cost to Apollo upon demand. Note: If the Bond is given in cash or traveller's cheques then your passport must be presented on pick up. Due to security reasons the refund will be by Apollo's company cheque, which is sent to the renter's home address from the Apollo Head Office. Your Full Responsibility
