Multiple
Rentals:
Consecutive
Motorhome/Campervan rentals can
be combined to qualify for a
long-term discount rate. Rentals
in the United States of America,
Australia and New Zealand can
be combined to obtain a long-term
discount rate, providing travel
is within a 3 month period. If
drop off of a vehicle and pick
up of a new vehicle occurs on
the same day then a day each
will be charged per respective
vehicle. Multiple rentals are
treated as separate rentals under
the one way fee and minimum rental
period conditions.
Rental

if
the customer wishes to extend the rental
whilst on hire, they must irst obtain
authorisation from Apollo Reservations
who will advise of the additional costs.
Rental extension is subject to leet
availability. The extra cost (Gross
Rate) of an extended rental must be
paid by credit card over the telephone
or at an Apollo Branch immediately
on conirmation of the rental extension.
Whilst
on hire if you decide to extend your
rental duration (changing the drop-off
date) by 2 nights the same lex rate
is used that applied on the day when
you made your original booking. if
you extend by 3 nights or more, the
booking change rule applies as outlined
above.
Failure
to obtain authorisation will result
in the renter being charged double
the nightly gross rental rate.

drop off destination after the

must obtain authorisation from
the Apollo Head Office. Subject
to the change being approved, a

happen that small repairs are required.

without authorisation and will be reimbursed
unless the damage is caused by the
