I think we were alright with the auto collision damage waiver we got from our credit card. Last time I think that saved us €126. (Scott, we talked about this once in the forum.) We obtained a letter from the credit card company stating we are covered for that, which seemed to work at the counter. We now also have an umbrella policy with our home & auto carrier, which they say will cover us for renting internationally. But, you’re right – you have to know it will work!

Good point Scott. Check your own insurance and if possible get an upgrade as (in Europe) this is typically cheaper than the Car Rental companies. You don’t have to take their insurance if you are already covered

If you’re planning Car-hire (Car Rental), ask about the insurance cost as it is way more than you expect in the U.S. Also make very sure if you plan to use your insurance or insurance through your credit card. It might not work as you expect.
