Virgin Car Hire

Hi, having seen recommendations on here for virgin car hire I had a look and they come up about half the price of other searches (I have had a price from Andy). Went to book today and they’re asking another £96 for insurance- I was under the impression everything was included in the original price?

Sorry but when I open it up to see the finer detail on the iPad it goes all blurry.

Can you post your dates and car size and I will look.

Tampa airport, 3/09/22 - 17/09/22, Chevy Tahoe
Thanks Tom!

To be honest, it’s still the cheapest price even if I add on the £96!

OK. Via Virgin Atlantic as a stand alone car hire £1160.86. That is full Insured and up to $1 Million SLI. 1 additional driver, bring back full.

Edit. You can add GPS for £96.61

So I don’t need to add anything else, they are saying limited 3rd party cover,no insurance cover for damage to your hire car and mandatory taxes between $70-150 are payable when picking up your hire car so have to pay extra £96?

On the PC I'm not seeing what you are ref limited cover. Are you using the phone or iPad?

Both of us are getting the same price so I think you are fine. That extra cost is for extra drivers and bring back empty.
