No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your booking in Kansas 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 Kansas 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)

The Avis counter at Kansas City International Airport (MCI) is located at 1 Nassau Circle, Kansas City, MO 64153, inside the consolidated hire car facility at the airport. After collecting your bags, follow the signs towards the hire car centre to reach the Avis desk.

Counter hours at MCI are generally Monday to Friday and Sunday from 7:30 AM to 1:00 AM, and Saturday from 7:30 AM to 11:00 PM. Hours may vary on public holidays, so please confirm the schedule on your booking confirmation before travelling.

Avis Preferred members at Kansas City International Airport can skip the main queue: preprinted documents and keys are ready at a dedicated area, so you can proceed directly to your vehicle. A 24-hour drop-off service is available at MCI, allowing you to return your Kansas hire outside staffed hours by leaving the vehicle in the designated return lot.

The Avis counter at Wichita Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport (ICT) is located at 2280 Eisenhower Parkway, Wichita, KS 67209, inside the baggage reclaim area of the terminal. After collecting your luggage, look for the Avis desk directly in baggage reclaim. Hire vehicles are parked outside the baggage reclaim building, so you can walk to your car once the paperwork is complete.

Avis Preferred members renting in Wichita, Kansas receive preprinted documents and keys at the counter, enabling a quicker collection process. If you arrive outside staffed hours, please check your booking confirmation for specific instructions, as after-hours arrangements vary by location.

Bring your physical driving licence, a major credit card in the main driver’s name with the name printed on the card, your passport or government-issued photo ID, and your booking confirmation to ensure a smooth pickup at the Avis Wichita Kansas counter.

Yes, Avis has an off-airport location in Kansas at 8345 State Ave, Kansas City, KS 66112, in addition to its airport counters at Kansas City International Airport (MCI) and Wichita Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport (ICT).

The State Ave location in Kansas City, Kansas operates on the following schedule:

• Monday to Friday: 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM
• Saturday: 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM
• Sunday: 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM

This Avis Kansas off-airport location offers a free pick-up service and may provide more competitive rates compared to airport counters, as airport locations often include concession fees and facility charges that are passed on to the renter. One-way hires from the State Ave location to MCI airport are also available, offering flexibility for your Kansas trip.

If arriving by plane, the Avis counters at MCI or ICT are usually the most convenient options. The off-airport Kansas City location is suitable for renters already in the area or wishing to avoid airport surcharges.

The Kansas Turnpike, also known as the Ike, is the main toll road in Kansas, running from the Oklahoma border in the south to the Nebraska border in the north, passing through Wichita, Topeka, and Lawrence. If you are driving an Avis hire vehicle in Kansas, here is what you need to know.

Payment options at most Kansas Turnpike plazas include:

• Cash (US dollars)
• Major credit cards at self-pay lanes
• K-Tag, Kansas’s electronic transponder system

Note that E-ZPass is not accepted on the Kansas Turnpike. One exit in Wichita (Exit 53A) is fully cashless and requires either a K-Tag or online payment by licence plate within 10 days of travel.

Your Avis hire vehicle in Kansas will typically be equipped with an electronic toll device. At the counter, you can choose an unlimited toll package (generally US$11 to US$25 per day, depending on the programme) or pay per use, where Avis bills the actual toll amount plus a daily administrative fee. Toll charges may appear on your credit card days or even weeks after you return the vehicle.

If you prefer to pay cash or by card at the toll plaza, inform the Avis counter agent at pickup so the vehicle’s toll device can be managed accordingly to avoid duplicate charges.

To pick up an Avis hire car in Kansas, you must bring the following physical documents to the counter:

• A valid, original driving licence (not a digital copy)
• A major credit card in the main driver’s name with the name printed on the card, for the security deposit authorisation
• A passport or valid government-issued photo ID
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets if visiting from abroad

If your driving licence is not in English and does not use a Latin (Roman) alphabet, such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory at the Avis Kansas counter. For licences in other non-English scripts, an IDP is strongly recommended even if not strictly required.

The IDP is a translation document only and must be carried alongside your original licence. It is not accepted on its own. Obtain your IDP in your home country before travelling, as it cannot be issued abroad.

All documents presented at the Avis counter in Kansas must be physical originals. Digital versions shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted.

When you pick up your Avis hire car in Kansas, the counter agent will place a temporary authorisation hold on your credit card. This is not a charge; it is a hold that reduces your available credit until it is released after you return the vehicle.

For Avis hires in the United States, including Kansas, the typical hold is approximately US$300 to US$400 for standard vehicle classes. Premium or speciality vehicles may require a higher hold amount. The exact figure is set by the Avis desk at the time of collection and can vary by location, season, and vehicle class.

Important requirements for the deposit at the Avis Kansas counter:

• The card must be a major credit card (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, etc.) with the main driver’s name printed on it
• Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted for the authorisation hold
• The card must have sufficient available credit to cover the hold plus any expected charges

After returning the Avis vehicle in Kansas, the hold is released. Your bank or card issuer controls how quickly it clears, which can take up to 15 business days. Please bring a backup credit card in case your primary card is declined.

Yes, all bookings made through Hola Car Rentals, including Avis hires in Kansas, include Tolls Cashback of up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your hire period.

This benefit is especially useful if you plan to drive the Kansas Turnpike, which connects Wichita, Topeka, and Lawrence and charges distance-based tolls. The cashback also applies to any other toll roads used during your Kansas hire.

To claim your Tolls Cashback after returning your Avis vehicle in Kansas:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of returning the vehicle
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - followed by your reservation confirmation number
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation, the Avis hire agreement signed at collection, and a receipt or statement showing the toll charges paid

The refund is processed to the same payment method used for your original booking and typically takes 7 to 10 business days after approval. Claims submitted after 30 days are not accepted. This benefit reimburses the lesser of your actual toll costs or 5% of your booking total.

Yes, Avis supports one-way hires in Kansas, allowing you to pick up at one location and return at a different one. For example, you can pick up at the Avis State Ave location in Kansas City, Kansas and return at Kansas City International Airport (MCI), or travel between Wichita and Kansas City.

A drop-off fee may apply depending on the route. This fee is route-specific and varies by distance, vehicle class, and season. When booking through Hola Car Rentals, any applicable drop-off fee will be shown on the rate details page under the section labelled as charges due at destination, so you can see the cost before confirming your Avis Kansas booking.

Key points to remember for one-way Avis hires in Kansas:

• The drop-off fee is payable at the counter and cannot be pre-paid
• Changing your return location after booking may reprice the hire and recalculate the fee
• Cross-border one-way hires (for example, Kansas to another country) are subject to separate partner rules and may not be permitted

Always review your booking confirmation to confirm the drop-off fee amount before collection.

The minimum age to hire an Avis vehicle in Kansas without a young-driver surcharge is 25. Drivers aged 21 to 24 can hire from Avis in Kansas but will be charged a daily underage fee on top of the base hire rate.

Drivers under 25 hiring from Avis in Kansas should also be aware of vehicle class restrictions. Categories such as full-size SUVs, premium, luxury, convertibles, minivans, and vans are typically reserved for drivers aged 25 and over. The vehicle classes generally available to drivers aged 21 to 24 include economy, compact, medium saloon, standard saloon, compact SUV, and medium SUV.

One important exception for Avis Kansas hires: if you are aged 21 to 24 and are a citizen or resident of Latin America or the Caribbean, certain Hola Car Rentals rates with Avis waive the underage fee for the main driver. To benefit from this exception:

• The waiver must be explicitly shown on your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation
• You must present a passport or government ID proving Latin American or Caribbean nationality or residency at the Avis Kansas counter
• The vehicle must belong to an eligible category (economy through medium SUV)

This exception applies to the main driver only. Additional drivers aged 21 to 24 remain subject to standard Avis underage fee rules.

Avis hires in Kansas follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy by default. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.

Steps to ensure a smooth fuel return on your Avis Kansas hire:

• At collection, check the fuel gauge with the Avis 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 (MCI, ICT, or whichever Avis Kansas location you are returning to) so the gauge does not drop before you arrive
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address
• For after-hours returns at MCI, leave the receipt in the return envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge

If you return the Avis vehicle in Kansas with less than a full tank, you may be charged for the fuel shortfall at the partner’s refuelling rate, which is typically higher than the pump price, plus a refuelling service fee. Using the correct fuel type (petrol versus diesel) is also important, as wrong-fuel incidents are not covered by the fuel policy.

Avis hires in Kansas do not automatically include full insurance cover in the base rate. The protections available depend on the rate plan you select when booking.

The two main types of cover relevant to an Avis Kansas hire are:

• Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW): reduces your financial liability for damage to the Avis hire vehicle from a collision, theft, or vandalism. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation explicitly states zero deductible. CDW and LDW do not cover damage you cause to other vehicles or persons.
• Third-Party Liability (LIS/ALI/SLI): covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to others while driving the Avis hire in Kansas. Some US states require a minimum level of liability cover, but not all. Adding supplementary liability cover is strongly recommended.

CDW and LDW do not cover tyres, undercarriage, roof damage, or personal belongings. Only drivers listed on the Avis hire agreement in Kansas are covered by these protections.

Review your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation to see exactly which coverages are included in your chosen rate before collecting your Avis vehicle in Kansas.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Avis hire in Kansas, but the additional driver must be present at the Avis counter at collection with a valid driving licence to sign the hire agreement. Drivers not listed on the agreement are not covered by CDW, LDW, or liability protections.

Whether the additional driver fee is included or charged at the counter depends on your rate:

• If your Hola Car Rentals confirmation shows additional driver included or free of charge, the first extra driver is covered at no extra cost
• If not included, Avis charges US$13 per hire day plus taxes for an additional driver in Kansas, with a maximum charge of US$65 plus taxes per hire

For Avis hires in Kansas, additional drivers are generally at least 25 years old. Drivers aged 21 to 24 may be subject to an underage surcharge or may not be accepted as additional drivers depending on location rules.

To add an additional driver to your Avis Kansas hire:

• Bring the additional driver to the Avis counter at collection (MCI, ICT, or the State Ave Kansas City location)
• The additional driver must present a valid driving licence and any required IDP
• Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the hire agreement

Yes, most bookings made through Hola Car Rentals, including Avis hires in Kansas, include travel assistance cover provided by Terrawind Global Protection. This benefit is designed for situations that can arise whilst travelling, such as a medical emergency on a Kansas highway or a flight cancellation affecting your hire pickup.

Cover typically includes:

• Travel insurance with medical cover for up to 5 passengers
• Legal assistance in the event of a road accident during your Kansas hire
• Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
• Flight cancellation insurance

This cover does not apply to damage to the Avis hire vehicle itself (that is handled by CDW or LDW) or to third-party liability (handled by LIS or SLI). Pre-existing medical conditions are also excluded.

Important: this travel assistance benefit does not apply to residents of the United States or Canada. If you are a US or Canadian resident hiring an Avis vehicle in Kansas, this benefit is not available to you.
