A hire car for up to 24 hours, or
The cost of alternative travel to return home or continue your journey

If necessary, we will also pay for a single standard class rail ticket for you or another driver to collect the vehicle.

For protection when driving on the continent, EuroPlus offers extensive cover designed to put your mind at rest. The level of cover offers all the benefits of Recovery Plus as well as European roadside help, the cost of travel home if necessary, and the cost of getting your vehicle back too, plus free legal cover and more.
