Yes, rescheduling may be possible instead of cancelling a rental booking, but it generally depends on the vehicle owner's availability and the terms agreed for the booking. If your travel plans change, it is better to contact the owner as early as possible and request a new rental date or time. Rescheduling can be more convenient than cancelling if the vehicle is available and both parties agree to the change.
When rescheduling may be possible:
- The vehicle is available on the new date.
- The owner agrees to the requested change.
- The revised rental period fits the booking terms.
- Any difference in rental price can be agreed upon.
- The change is requested before the original rental begins.
Things to check before rescheduling:
- New rental date and time
- Vehicle availability
- Updated rental price
- Changes to pickup and return arrangements
- Cancellation or rescheduling conditions
- Any additional charges
Steps to request a reschedule:
- Contact the vehicle owner as early as possible.
- Explain why you need to change the booking.
- Suggest your preferred new date and time.
- Confirm the vehicle is available.
- Get confirmation of the revised booking details.
Tips for a smooth rescheduling process:
- Avoid waiting until the last moment.
- Keep the original booking confirmation.
- Confirm all revised terms in writing.
- Check whether the rental duration changes.
- Do not assume the booking has been rescheduled until the owner confirms it.
Key Takeaway: Rescheduling a MotoShare rental may be a practical alternative to cancellation when your plans change. Since availability and rental terms can vary by vehicle and owner, contact the owner early and confirm all revised booking details before making any changes.
