Insurance Details to Consider When Renting a Car at Izmir Adnan Menderes Airport

Mandatory Traffic Insurance (MTI): This insurance is compulsory when driving in Turkey and covers potential financial damages to third parties in case of an accident. Ensure that your car rental package includes this insurance.


Collision Damage Waiver (CDW): Covering damages to the rental vehicle in the event of an accident, this insurance often comes with a high rental fee. However, having this insurance is essential to safeguard your vehicle and minimize potential costs.


Theft Protection (TP): Rental companies usually offer this insurance to protect you in case the rented vehicle is stolen. Evaluating this insurance is crucial to prevent financial losses in the event of theft.


Third-Party Liability (TPL): Going beyond mandatory traffic insurance, this insurance covers liability situations involving third parties. It often provides additional protection.


Personal Accident Insurance (PAI): Covering potential injuries to passengers and the driver in case of an accident, this insurance is optional. Check your travel insurance coverage to determine if you need this additional insurance.


Before finalizing any agreement with the car rental company, carefully read the contract to understand which insurances are included and which ones come at an additional cost. Also, thoroughly inspect the vehicle for existing damages before taking possession.


Wishing you a delightful and safe journey in Izmir!
