No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your booking in Fort Wayne are clearly shown at the time of reservation and in your confirmation email, so you know exactly what you are paying before you arrive at the counter.

On top of that, every Hola Car Rentals booking includes the No Extra Charges© guarantee. This is a pricing guarantee (not insurance) that protects you if the counter in Fort Wayne charges you for something that was not listed on your confirmation and was not an optional add-on you accepted. If that happens, Hola Car Rentals will work with the hire partner to remove or reimburse the charge after verification.

The only costs outside this guarantee are:

• Optional add-ons you choose at the counter (GPS, child seats, prepaid fuel)
• Usage-based charges (tolls, fuel shortfall, traffic fines)

Rental car counters at Fort Wayne International Airport (FWA) are located inside or directly adjacent to the terminal building, near the baggage reclaim area. Once you collect your bags, follow the car hire signs to the counter for your brand. No extended shuttle is needed, as the hire lots are on Ferguson Road, just steps from the terminal.

Specific counter addresses for your minivan pickup in Fort Wayne include:

• Budget: 4100 Ferguson Rd, Fort Wayne, IN 46809
• Enterprise: 3833 W Ferguson Rd, Fort Wayne, IN 46809
• National: 3829 W Ferguson Rd, Fort Wayne, IN 46809

Present your driving licence, booking confirmation, and credit card at the counter. From baggage reclaim to driving away in your minivan, allow roughly 20 to 45 minutes depending on counter wait times. If you booked at a city location such as Enterprise Downtown (522 E State Blvd) or Enterprise Lima Rd (5006 Lima Rd), you will need a taxi or rideshare from FWA, as no rental shuttle connects the airport to those branches.

Counter hours for minivan hires at Fort Wayne International Airport (FWA) vary by brand. Based on available information:

• Budget (4100 Ferguson Rd): open daily from 9:00 AM to 11:45 PM
• Enterprise and National on Ferguson Rd follow similar airport schedules, though hours can vary by season and day

City-centre branches in Fort Wayne have shorter hours. For example, Enterprise Lima Rd (5006 Lima Rd) closes as early as 6:00 PM on weekdays and 2:00 PM on weekends, which matters if you plan to return your minivan outside airport hours.

After-hours minivan returns at the Fort Wayne airport are available at select locations via key drop. National and Avis both offer key drop boxes at some Fort Wayne sites, though you remain liable for the vehicle until the next business day check-in. Always confirm after-hours procedures with your specific brand before your trip, and keep a timestamped photo of the returned minivan as documentation.

Yes, Indiana has toll roads that can affect your minivan journey from Fort Wayne. The main route to be aware of is the Indiana Toll Road (I-90), a 157-mile east-west highway across northern Indiana connecting the Chicago area to the Ohio border. If you drive your Fort Wayne minivan west towards Chicago or east towards Ohio, you will encounter this toll road.

Payment options on the Indiana Toll Road include:

• E-ZPass or I-Pass (Indiana's electronic transponder system) at discounted rates
• Cash at staffed booths
• Cashless video tolling via licence plate capture if no transponder is present

Your hire minivan comes pre-equipped with an electronic toll device. At the Fort Wayne pickup counter, you can enrol in the hire company's toll programme (typically US$3.95 to US$4.95 per day, charged only on days you use tolls, plus the actual toll amounts). If you decline, the hire company will bill tolls at the higher video or cash rate plus an administrative fee, often weeks after your hire ends.

There are no congestion charges or emissions zones in Indiana. Tolls are distance-based or bridge-based only.

Yes, all Hola Car Rentals bookings include Tolls Cashback, which lets you recover up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your Fort Wayne minivan hire.

This is especially useful if your minivan journey takes you onto the Indiana Toll Road (I-90) or across any of the river bridges in northern Indiana, where tolls can add up over a multi-day hire.

To claim your cashback after returning your Fort Wayne minivan:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of vehicle return
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - Reservation [Your Confirmation Number]
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals confirmation, the signed hire agreement, and a toll receipt or statement showing charges paid

The refund is calculated as the lesser of your actual toll spend or 5% of your booking total. For example, if your booking total is US$500, the cap is US$25. If you paid US$18 in tolls, you receive US$18 back. Refunds are issued to your original payment method within 7 to 10 working days after approval. Late submissions received after 30 days are not accepted.

To collect a minivan in Fort Wayne, you must bring the following physical documents to the counter:

• Your original, unexpired driving licence in the main driver's name
• A major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card (debit and prepaid cards are not accepted for the security deposit)
• A valid passport if you hold a non-US licence
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets if you are visiting from abroad

If your driving licence uses a non-Latin alphabet (for example, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic), an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory alongside your original licence. For licences in other non-English scripts, an IDP is strongly recommended. The IDP is a translation only and cannot be used without the original licence.

At Fort Wayne airport locations such as Avis, a passport or Canadian enhanced licence is required as secondary ID for non-US licences. All documents must be physical originals. Digital copies shown on a phone are not accepted at any Fort Wayne minivan hire counter.

Yes, a major credit card in the main driver's name with the driver's name physically printed on the card is required to hire a minivan in Fort Wayne. The card is used to place a temporary authorisation hold at pickup, which is not a charge but reduces your available credit until the hire ends.

For a standard minivan hire in the United States, the typical authorisation hold is around US$300 to US$400, though the exact amount is set by the hire company at the Fort Wayne counter and may be higher for premium vehicles or longer hires.

Important points to bear in mind:

• Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual or single-use card numbers are not accepted for the deposit
• The card must be physically present at the Fort Wayne counter, not shown via a digital wallet
• Even if you prepaid your minivan booking online, you must still present a physical credit card at pickup
• Notify your bank of your travel plans to prevent the authorisation from being flagged as fraud

After you return the minivan, the hold is released, but your bank may take up to 15 working days to reflect the release on your statement.

To hire a minivan in Fort Wayne, you must be at least 25 years old. Minivans fall into a restricted vehicle category, meaning drivers aged 21 to 24 are generally not permitted to hire them, even if a young-renter surcharge would otherwise apply.

This is an important distinction from smaller vehicle classes. In Indiana, outside of New York and Michigan, hire companies set their own minimum age policies, and most brands restrict minivans, vans, full-size SUVs, and premium vehicles to drivers 25 and older.

If you are between 21 and 24 and need a vehicle in Fort Wayne, you would need to select an eligible class such as Economy, Compact, or Compact SUV instead. Drivers under 21 cannot hire at all in Indiana under standard partner policies.

Indiana also has a graduated licensing curfew for drivers under 21: those under 18 may not drive between 11:00 PM and 5:00 AM, and new drivers under 21 are restricted from driving between 10:00 PM and 5:00 AM during the first 180 days of licensure. These rules apply to all drivers of a Fort Wayne minivan hire, including additional drivers listed on the agreement.

Indiana has several driving rules that can catch visitors unawares when driving a minivan in Fort Wayne.

Left lane rule: Indiana law requires drivers in the left lane to yield to faster-approaching vehicles. Failing to do so is a Class C infraction with fines up to US$500. This is stricter than the informal keep-right norms in many other states.

Median U-turn intersections: Some Indiana roads use J-turn or median U-turn layouts where you cannot turn left directly. Instead, you pass through the intersection and make a U-turn at a designated median opening. Signs guide you, but the layout is unfamiliar to many visitors driving a minivan in Fort Wayne for the first time.

Multi-lane roundabouts: Indiana roundabouts require drivers in the right lane to yield to large vehicles such as trucks and buses already inside the circle. Traffic flow direction and stop sign placement can differ from roundabouts in other countries.

Move Over law: If you pull over or encounter a disabled vehicle with hazard lights on and cannot change lanes, you must slow to at least 10 mph below the posted speed limit. Interior lights must be on if you are pulled over at night.

Speed limits to note for your Fort Wayne minivan journey: county roads cap at 55 mph, urban residential streets at 30 mph, alleys at 15 mph, and work zones require at least 10 mph below the posted limit.

Yes, most Hola Car Rentals bookings include travel assistance provided by Terrawind Global Protection, and this applies to your Fort Wayne minivan hire as well. However, this benefit is available only to travellers who are not residents of the United States or Canada.

If you are visiting Fort Wayne from outside North America and something goes wrong during your minivan hire, such as a medical emergency on the Indiana Toll Road or a serious accident far from the city, the travel assistance coverage can help with:

• Medical cover for up to 5 passengers
• Legal assistance in the event of an accident
• Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
• Flight cancellation insurance

To reach assistance 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, call +1 888 980 9992 (toll-free) or contact WhatsApp at +1 208 910 1001. Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call.

This cover does not include damage to the hire minivan itself (that is handled by CDW/LDW) or liability to third parties (covered by LIS/ALI/SLI). Always review your booking confirmation for the exact terms and limits that apply to your Fort Wayne reservation.

Minivan hires in Fort Wayne follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy. You receive the minivan with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.

Steps to follow for a smooth fuel return in Fort Wayne:

• At pickup, check the fuel gauge with the agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on the hire agreement
• Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and fuel gauge
• Refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location on Ferguson Rd (for airport returns) or Lima Rd (for city returns) so the gauge does not drop before you arrive
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address

If you return the Fort Wayne minivan below the recorded starting level, the hire company will charge you for the fuel shortfall at their own refuelling rate, which is typically higher than pump prices, plus a service fee. For after-hours returns at Fort Wayne airport locations, leave the receipt in the key drop envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge on your phone.

If the minivan was not full at pickup, ask the agent to note the exact level on the agreement and match that level at return.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your minivan hire in Fort Wayne, either at no cost if your rate includes it or for a daily fee paid at the counter if it does not.

Daily fees for additional drivers in Fort Wayne vary by brand:

• Avis, Budget, Payless: US$13 per day plus taxes, capped at US$65 plus taxes
• Hertz, Thrifty, Dollar: US$13.50 per day plus taxes, capped at US$189 plus taxes
• Alamo, National, Enterprise: US$15 per day plus taxes

The additional driver must be present at the Fort Wayne counter at pickup with their own valid driving licence. If their licence uses a non-Latin alphabet, they will also need an International Driving Permit. Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the hire agreement before leaving with the minivan.

For Avis, Budget, and Payless hires in Fort Wayne, additional drivers must be at least 25 years old. Anyone who drives the minivan without being listed on the agreement is not covered by CDW/LDW or liability protections, so it is important to add all drivers before leaving the counter.

Yes, one-way minivan hires from Fort Wayne to another city are possible, but a drop-off fee may apply depending on your route, the hire brand, and the vehicle class.

One-way fees are route-specific and are not a fixed amount. For a Fort Wayne minivan hire, the fee is typically higher for long-distance routes (for example, Fort Wayne to Chicago or Fort Wayne to Indianapolis) and for larger vehicle classes like minivans compared to economy cars.

How to check whether a drop-off fee applies to your Fort Wayne minivan booking:

• During the search and checkout process, select your different return location
• If a drop-off fee applies, it will appear under the "To pay at destination" section on the rate details page
• Your booking confirmation will also list the fee if one was applied

Cross-border one-way hires (for example, returning a Fort Wayne minivan in Canada) are often restricted or carry significantly higher fees. Always confirm cross-border permissions with the hire partner before booking.

If the counter charges a drop-off fee that was not disclosed on your confirmation, keep all paperwork and contact support. The No Extra Charges© guarantee covers undisclosed fees after verification.

Yes, Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) cover can be included with your Fort Wayne minivan hire depending on the rate plan you selected. Check your booking confirmation to confirm whether CDW/LDW is listed and whether a deductible applies.

CDW/LDW for your Fort Wayne minivan covers:

• Damage to the hire minivan from a collision or covered incident
• Theft or vandalism of the vehicle
• Repairs up to the vehicle's value, minus any applicable deductible

CDW/LDW does not cover:

• Damage or injury caused to other people or their property (you need LIS/ALI/SLI for that)
• Tires, wheels, undercarriage, or roof damage unless specifically included
• Drivers not listed on the Fort Wayne hire agreement

In Indiana, some US states require hire companies to include state-minimum third-party liability, but this is not universal. It is strongly recommended to add Liability Insurance Supplementary (LIS) to your Fort Wayne minivan hire to ensure you are protected if you cause damage or injury to others while driving.

Always report any incident immediately using the number on your hire agreement, as late reporting can invalidate your cover.
