之前看過前輩分享從西歐租車開到東歐的經驗,大概就是只要跟租車公司說要開到東歐,租車公司就會給適當的車輛。這兩天自己在訂車時,才發現事情不單純啊...
預定好 AVIS MB C class 等級的自排車之後,為求安心,電話 + Email 詢問了美國 AVIS,德國 AVIS 以及台灣 AVIS 確認是否可以把這車開到捷克,結果竟然得到不同版本的答案:
AVIS:
●美國 AVIS - 沒問題,也不用加錢。(但是,用租車確認單據到 www.avis.com 查詢訂單時,確認單上面有提到只有 Opel, Renault, Volvo 等款式的車輛可以進東歐,而且每天得多加 8 € 的費用。)
●德國 AVIS - 沒問題,也不用加錢。
●台灣 AVIS - 第一時間的回答是: 「不行」,「可是我問過美國 AVIS 和德國 AVIS 都說可以啊 」我說。隔天台灣 AVIS 再來電,說他們詢問到的資訊也是不太一致,並提到之前有客人發生過人到了德國,結果當地的 AVIS 拒絕出租車輛開到東歐的狀況,建議我即使美國、德國 AVIS 都說 OK,一切還是得依照現場狀況而定,還建議我最好也預訂別家公司的車輛作為備案。連 AVIS 都不太願意做這筆生意,實在令人擔心... 萬一沒拿到車子,後面的行程沒有全毀也會半毀...
SixT:
搜尋之後,SixT 似乎也是不錯的替代選擇。但是在 www.sixt.de 或是 www.sixt.com 上搜尋後,最便宜的自排車輛是 BMW 5 等級以上的車子,租金超過預算甚多 (也不符合我們低調的性格),繼續搜尋後,發現若從 www.expedia.com 上面訂車的話,車種選擇較多(至少也有 MB B class 或是 BMW 3 等級的自排車輛),而且和 AVIS 一樣,不用付訂金也無需押信用卡。AVIS 的取車時間是 9AM,就暫時訂了 SixT BMW3 在 10AM 取車作為備案。
訂車之前,其實有先 Email 詢問過 SixT 的客服,對方說只要不是德國品牌的車子(1A2B, VW, Porsche ...)的話,可以開到東歐,也不需加價。訂車後,為求安心,把訂車單再次轉給 SixT 客服請對方確認是否可以進東歐,結果第一時間得到的答案是「不行」,「可是另一位客服 Paul J. 前天跟我說可以啊 」我說。過了幾小時,又收到另一封回覆說,OK, 確實可以開到東歐,但是 BMW 3 (26 天租金約 1,100 €) 屬於 full-size 的車輛,全車系禁止進入東歐,建議我改訂 Standard-Size 的車輛(如 MB B class),相同等級可以進入東歐的車輛大概是 Opel Insignia OPC (€725.89),但是至少看起來應該有找到備案,而且價錢便宜的嚇人,其他的可能得隨機應變了... Good luck to me!
註一: 以今天 (2012/2/12) 在 www.avis.tw 預定 7 月份 MB C-Klasse Navigati... or similar (Car group G) 自排車輛 26 天為例,在法蘭克福市區租還的費用是 978 .00 EUR。相同的車輛、天數,若在布拉格市區租還的話,租金是 2,966 .33 EUR,租金是德國的三倍之多。
註二: 去年德國租車預定了 Audi,也希望拿到 Audi (結果拿到 CR-V);今年租車預定 MB C-class,但是考量東歐治安不好,卻變得不希望真的拿到雙 B,雖然有買保險,但是萬一車子真的被偷,也是會大大影響行程及心情。

我再來參考一下這家租車公司。
Gary大哥您好
回覆刪除下周將啟程德奧捷匈四國之旅
與您相同的是從德國租車開往東歐
租車公司表示我租的車型可開往這幾國
想請問
除了須購買奧捷匈的高速公路通行證
是否需準備"cross border card"?
謝謝!
奧地利、捷克都有自己的高速公路貼紙可以購買。匈牙利的話我就不確定了。我也沒聽過 Cross Boarder Card 呢,是用來做道路救援的嗎?
刪除您好,不知出發了嗎??
刪除6月剛從東歐回來,匈牙利也要買高速公路通行證~HU-GO,依停留的天數去購買
我們是跟租車公司付跨境費~Cross Border Fee(在當地車行支付)
