Warsaw is the largest city and capital of Poland. Modlin Airport is a relatively new international passenger airport. Opened in August 2012, the airport used to be a military airfield which was disused for a long time. The airport is located about 40 km from the Warsaw city center from the northern side. The main airline operating at the airport is Ryanair which offers flights to many destinations such as Barcelona, Bristol, Dublin, Rome, East Midlands and others. Many car rental companies have established their operations at the airport and convenient transportation is thus guaranteed to the city center and other near and far destinations.

The process of renting a car at Modlin Airport is more or less similar like in other airports. As usual, it is always important that you read and understand the car rental agreement before you become a signatory. One of the things involved with hiring a car at the airport are insurance surcharges which can at times inflate the cost of hiring the car. In case the hired car is stolen or damage or kills or injures someone, you might end up incurring more liabilities to the rental agency than the rental fees.

Besides the car hire agency charging you for the cost of repairing the car, you will also be charged for any lost revenue during the time the car is at the repair shop. Keeping in mind all these factors, it is of paramount importance to ensure that you are adequately insured before you leave the airport to wherever else that you intend to go.

Usually, when you express your interest to rent a car at any company operating at the airport, you will be presented with a number of insurance options where you need to choose a cover. Some of these options include collision damage waiver, theft liability waiver, windscreen breakage insurance, excess reductions, third party insurance and personal effects insurance. It is crucial that you time your time and consider all the insurance options being offered particularly when it comes to their cost and how they will impact your liability. Actually, these insurance surcharges are compulsory at Warsaw Airport just like the airport fees. It is important that you shop widely and compare what different companies are offering in order to choose the best deal.
