Travelocity doesn't offer car liability insurance. Customers can check their insurance policies to find out if they cover the rental vehicle. These policies often cover rental cars. Your agent can help you determine if your policy covers rental cars.
Insurance coverage is lacking
While travel insurance is required when renting a vehicle, it does not cover all costs. Some rental companies will charge you an additional fee for collision damage waiver (supplemental insurance coverage). You can also decline coverage to avoid this fee. This is not recommended if you plan to rent a car with no credit card. This coverage does not cover your expenses if you get into an accident or are intoxicated.
Sabre acquires Travelocity
Sabre's acquisition, Travelocity, will expand the company's reach. The privately owned company also owns four other business units including Sabre Hospitality Solutions and Sabre Travel Network. With more than 5,000 locations, Travelocity is one the largest names in the rental car industry.
Travelocity is a pioneer in travel web sites. The company launched in 1996 as a way for travelers to book trips without using a travel agent. The companies now share a strategic marketing partnership.
