Car Hire with Virgin Holidays- extra costs?

clarkyswc · 14 Jun 16, 06:40 PM

Hello All,
I've booked my holiday for next year with Virgin Holidays, which includes car hire.
Can anyone let me know what extra costs there will be when I pick the car up (I'm trying to work out what other costs there will be associated with my holiday that cant be avoided!)
Thanks

With a Holiday you have options to add on an upgrade in car size/quality and the Insurance.

if you dont do that you will end up with a 2 door car fit for a Hobbit and be uninsured. These are the costs you need to factor in.

If you do a dummy booking with VH for what you have booked you will see the various options ref cars and Insurance.
Once you have those 2 things done there is nothing extra to pay.

Thanks Tom,
As the holiday id booked with Virgin, do I have to take out the extra insurance I need for the car with them, or can I get it with any insurance company?
Thanks

Mmm. Do you mean a UK Broker? If so I wouldnt touch them with a bargepole!

Bear in mind if things go wrong you can wave goodbye to your house and be welcomed into the bancruptcy court!
