Car Rental Cancellation Policy: What to Know Before You Book
At Relax Rent a Car Skopje Airport, we understand that travel plans can change unexpectedly. That’s why we strive to offer a transparent and flexible cancellation policy, allowing you to adjust your booking without unnecessary stress. This guide outlines everything you need to know about our policies, ensuring you’re well-informed before you book your car rental with us.
Understanding Relax Rent a Car's Cancellation Policy at Skopje Airport
Our cancellation policy is designed to balance flexibility for our customers with the operational realities of running a car rental business at Skopje Alexander the Great Airport (SKP). We offer different cancellation options depending on the type of rate you choose – standard or discounted – and how far in advance you cancel. Relax Rent a Car has been serving customers since 2001, and our commitment to fair and transparent practices remains unwavering.
Standard Rates vs. Discounted Rates
- Standard Rates: These rates offer maximum flexibility. You can cancel your reservation up to 24 hours before the scheduled pickup time without incurring any cancellation fees. We encourage customers to familiarize themselves with local driving regulations, including speed limits (50 km/h in cities, 130 km/h on motorways).
- Discounted Rates: These rates offer lower prices but come with more restrictive cancellation policies. Cancellation fees may apply depending on how close you are to the pickup date. Specific details regarding discounted rates are displayed during the booking process.
Key Cancellation Timeframes & Fees
| Timeframe Before Pickup | Standard Rate Cancellation Fee | Discounted Rate Cancellation Fee |
|---|---|---|
| More than 24 hours | None | May apply (see booking details) |
| Less than 24 hours | None | Typically 50% of the total rental cost |
| No-Show | 100% of the total rental cost | 100% of the total rental cost |
Note: Exact discounted rate cancellation fees are outlined during the booking process and are subject to change. Always review the specific terms and conditions associated with your chosen rate.
How to Cancel Your Car Rental Reservation
Cancelling your Relax Rent a Car Skopje Airport reservation is a straightforward process. You have several convenient options to complete your cancellation:
- Online Cancellation: Visit our website, https://relaxrentacar.com/, and navigate to the “Manage Booking” section. Enter your booking reference number and last name to access your reservation details and cancellation options.

Important Considerations and Exceptions
- Third-Party Booking Platforms: If you booked your car rental through a third-party platform (e.g., Expedia, Booking.com), you must cancel your reservation through their website or app, following their specific cancellation policies. We are not responsible for cancellations made through these platforms.
- Insurance: Cancelling your car rental does not automatically cancel any optional insurance products you may have purchased (e.g., CDW, full coverage). Contact us directly to discuss the cancellation of insurance policies.
- Peak Season: During peak travel seasons (summer, holidays), our cancellation policies may be slightly stricter. This is to minimize potential losses due to last-minute cancellations.
