What to do do if items are missing or broken?

If you feel that items are missing from your campervan, please contact the friendly Spaceships Crew via email, phone or chat. We're always here to help and to answer your questions.
 
Where can I find the insurance policy? Which insurance company is used?
Getting insurance when hiring a Spaceships campervan is different from getting insurance for your vehicle at home. There is no insurance policy sheet to be found in the campervan. It's all digital. See all details of the insurance options or check out the Terms & Conditions for the fine-print about the insurance options offered.
 
There is no insurance company to select or lots of options or insurance add-ons to compare, just the three insurance options we offer. We like to keep things as easy as possible, so we have created three insurance options for you.
 
What do I need to do before returning the campervan?
You will receive detailed drop-off instructions via email a few days before the scheduled day of drop-off. But here's the short version of the drop-off process.... Please return your vehicle on the correct day at the correct location and at the time listed on your booking - see your confirmation email or rental agreement.
 
We have a key drop box / tube at all our depots. Please make sure you vehicle is washed on the outside and vacuumed inside, clean fridge & utensils. No need to wash the bedding. Cleaning fees apply if the campervan is dirty, with a minimum of $100. The fuel level must be the same as on pick up, as per our terms and conditions.
 
Once we have checked your vehicle after you have dropped off your campervan, we will send you an email.
 
How can I book my free night at Habitat Noosa?
That's super easy. Here's how this amazing - and super limited - deal works.
 
Book your Spaceships campervan online at the official Spaceships website. Best price is guaranteed and if you happen to find a lower-priced Spaceships quote elsewhere we'll match it. You'll see the Free Night Stay at Habitat Noosa automatically be added to your booking, as long as your travel dates match the deal.
 
Send in a booking request for your stay at Habitat Noosa. Our crew will book the free night for you.
 
More info about the Free Night at Habitat Noosa Deal
Habitat Noosa Everglades Eco Camp is just 25 minutes from Noosa, this incredible spot is nestled in 65 acres of National Park, right on the shores of stunning Lake Cootharaba. Even cooler? It’s one of only two everglades in the entire world!
 
As Space Traveller you can now stay at the amazing Habitat Noosa Everglades Eco Camp for FREE:
1 free night is included with all new Spaceships bookings.
 
Do your campervans have curtains? Can people look inside?
All Spaceships Campervans come with light-blocking curtains around the sleeping area. So no need to worry about campervan privacy. The outside world cannot look into the campervan when the curtains are closed. And luggage will be stored in the storage area under the bed so no one can see that either.
 
See for example, the photo below of the famous Beta Campervan. You can see the curtains all around. However, we've left them open when the photo was taken otherwise it would have been too dark.
 
Not being able to log into the Online Check-in Portal? Here's why and how to fix it
Are you having trouble to log into the Online Check-in Portal to manage your Spaceships New Zealand booking? No worries, there is nothing wrong with your booking or the system. These are the most common reasons why and how to fix it.
 
The Online Check-in Portal opens once your booking is confirmed and closes on the scheduled day of pick-up. If you try to log in outside that time frame you won't be able to log in.
 
You must use your 5-digit Spaceships booking number to log in. If you have booked through a travel agent ask your agent for the Spaceships booking reference as the agent's booking reference won't work.
 
You must use the surname (last name) of the person that is listed on the booking as main driver / hirer. This is usually the person that made the booking. If you have visited the Online Check-in Portal before or you have asked the Spaceships Crew to swap the additional driver and the main driver, then the new main driver's name must be used to log in. They are now the main driver aka hirer on the contract.
 
You must enter the name of the main driver / hirer exactly the same as it was entered on your booking. If the name has special characters in it, please use these as well when entering the Online Check-in Portal. The system checks your booking so the name you enter must match exactly.
 
Have you checked all this and still having trouble accessing your booking, please contact the friendly Spaceships Australia Crew. We're always happy to help.
 
Can you help me select a Whitsunday Tour and find a deal?
When you're on a road trip along the east coast of Australia, one of your must-see places has to be the Whitsunday Islands. This incredible group of 74 islands located just over 50 kilometres from Airlie Beach on the Queensland coast is at the southern end of the Great Barrier Reef, one of the 7 natural wonders of the world.
 
There are lots of different ways to experience the unique beauty of the Whitsundays: by boat, by plane and by kayak. To name a few of the options. And yes, there are lots of amazing tours to choose from.
 
To make the decision easier, we have created an article highlighting the advantages of the different tours and showing some of our favourite ways to explore the Whitsundays. Finding the best tour for you also depends on factors like time, budget and your personal preferences. There are some amazing multi-day tours but if you only have a day or half a day to spend then there are some quick tours that show you the highlights in a shorter amount of time. One thing is for sure: there is a Whitsundays Tour for every traveller, no matter the time you have and the budget. And it’ll be a good day, for sure.

How can I stay connected on my road trip in Australia?
With an eSIM you'll get data to connect to the internet, so you can use your smartphone throughout Australia. Most smartphones nowadays are compatible with eSIMs, but make sure to check just in case.
 
Get your eSIM data bundle for Australia (discount included) and you'll have mobile data from the moment you land. These eSIMs are from famous security company Nord, making your life on the road easier and more secure. In Australia you'll connect to the Vodafone Hutchison's network, which has excellent coverage.
 
Black Friday & Cyber Monday eSIM Deal: get up to 5GB data free on select plans
 
If you prefer an oldskool SIM that also includes mobile minutes, we recommend going to a shop when you arrive in Australia and get a SIM from Optus or Telstra.
 
Can I make changes to my booking? How to modify the booking: change pick-up time, change the date or add a day?
To make changes to your booking like adding or removing accessories or updating the insurance level, you can log into the Online Check-in Portal to manage your booking. The check-in portal opens when your booking is confirmed and closes on the day of pick-up. In between, you can log in as often as needed to update your booking.
 
You can change the pick-up & drop-off time via the Online Check-in Portal as well. The pick-up time can only be changed to a later time within business hours on the same day, while the drop-off time can only be changed to an earlier time within business hours.
 
If you like to change your travel dates - like adding a day or moving your booking to a different time of the year - contact us to request it. This also includes changing your pick-up date or time and/or return date or time.
 
If you have booked your Spaceships via a travel agent or third party, you will have fewer options available on the Online Check-in Portal. For example, you cannot change the insurance level yourself. This must be requested via your travel agent.
 
Is there a fridge in Spaceships campervans?
Yes, all Spaceships in the Australian fleet come with a fridge/freezer.
 
Where can I pick up and drop off my Spaceship?
You can pick up and drop off your Spaceships campervan at one of the official Spaceships depots in New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria or Tasmania. And there's no fee for one-way trips at Spaceships.
Airlie Beach

Hobart

Is there a Spaceships depot located in....?
Spaceships campervans can only be picked up and dropped off at official Spaceships depots. We do understand that travellers are also looking at campervan hire in other locations. Occasionally we receive questions like:
 
can I hire a Spaceships campervan in Perth?
do you have a depot in Adelaide?
is there a pick-up location in Darwin?
 
Unfortunately not, we don't operate out of these cities. The official Spaceships depot locations are listed above. We don't charge a one-way fee so you can easily pick up a campervan at Spaceships depot #1 and return it at Spaceships depot #2. As long as you have booked it as a one-way trip.
 
Can I return the campervan early? Can I drop it off X days earlier than on the booking?
Yes you can return your campervan early. However, keep in mind that there are no refunds for unused days or unused insurance.
 
What to do do if items are missing or broken?
If you feel that items are missing from your campervan, please contact the friendly Spaceships Crew via email, phone or chat. We're always here to help and to answer your questions.
