Britz Usa will hold the customer fully responsible for accidents or mechanical breakdowns occurring in a travel restricted area. Insurance coverage will be void in case of violation.
The price is based on availability and operational aspects and normally every Sunday morning the new prices are loaded in the system. Therefore a quote received on one day can differ from a quote receive on another day. Therefore the price at your booking determines the price for your rental. In the rare circumstance that the price fluctuates below the price of your booking we are not adjusting your booking. You would need to cancel your booking and rebook according to the corresponding terms (see below).
Every reservation change needs to be made in writing and will be confirmed in writing.
No name change is accepted when a surcharge, e.g. Holiday Surcharge, or an extended minimal nightly rent rule applies. Such name change will be handled according to the cancellation terms in the next paragraph and result in a new booking.
