Type the numbers from your voucher. We do the maths, not the guessing: no prices are invented here.

What is free on the driver's card today.
Blocked on your card

Held, not spent. Released after return, on the supplier's timetable.

Left on the card after the block

Fuel, food and parking still have to fit.

Cover for the whole rental

Per-day price times rental days.

Cover as a share of the excess

Under 100% the cover costs less than the excess it removes.

Separate excess reimbursement cover usually does not lower the deposit: you pay the supplier first and claim later. Tyres, glass, keys, underside and interior are often excluded. Read both documents.

3b

Fuel policy, in one gauge each

The policy fixes the level you collect at and the level you must return at. Photograph the gauge both times.

Full to full

You collect full and return full. Keep the refuelling receipt from a station near the airport. The fairest policy if you drive a lot.

Pre-paid full tank

You pay for a tank at the desk and return at any level. Check the price per litre and whether unused fuel is refunded. A short stay rarely empties a tank.

Returned below the line

Return under the agreed level and the supplier may charge the fuel plus a refuelling service fee. The service fee is in the rental conditions.

The road out

The ME-1 crosses the island from Mahón to Ciutadella, with Es Mercadal halfway. Beach roads branch off it and are narrower; car parks at the popular coves fill early in summer.
