Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Otane car reservation?
We get that having the freedom to change your plans is important. That's why many rentals give a complete refund if you let us know a minimum of six hours before the scheduled collection time. It's still good to read the cancellation policy though because there are some exceptions. If there's nothing specified there, head to our Customer Service Portal.

Cost-effective, a breeze to handle and great on mileage, it's no coincidence that compact cars are the most in-demand rental type in Otane.
