No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your booking in Doral 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 Doral 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 Budget car hire location in Doral is at 1455 NW 107th Ave, at the East Mall Entrance kiosk of Miami International Mall, Doral, FL 33172. This is a corporate kiosk location rather than a full standalone hire facility.

Because Doral sits within 10 to 15 minutes of Miami International Airport (MIA), many renters also choose to pick up their Budget vehicle directly at the MIA Rental Car Centre if that is more convenient for their arrival. When picking up at a city location like the Doral kiosk, bring your booking confirmation, a physical major credit card in the main driver's name, your driver's licence, and your passport or government-issued photo ID. All documents must be physical originals, as digital copies are not accepted at the counter.

To collect your Budget hire car in Doral, you must present the following physical documents at the counter:

• A valid, original driver's licence in the main driver's name
• A physical major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, for the authorisation hold
• A passport or valid government-issued photo ID
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets (required for international visitors)

If your driver's 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. For all other non-English licences, an IDP is strongly recommended. The IDP is a translation only and must be carried alongside your original licence.

Budget and all hire partners in Doral require physical documents. Digital versions shown on a phone or tablet will not be accepted at the counter.

Yes, Budget in Doral requires a physical major credit card in the main driver's name, with the driver's name printed on the card, to place an authorisation hold at pickup.

The hold is a temporary authorisation, not a charge, and reduces your available credit until it is released after you return the vehicle. For standard vehicles in the United Kingdom, typical holds range from approximately US$300 to US$400, though the exact amount is set by the Budget counter and may vary by vehicle class or hire length.

• Debit cards are not accepted for the authorisation hold
• Prepaid or virtual cards are not accepted
• The card must belong to the main driver, not a third party

It is advisable to bring a backup credit card in your name in case your primary card is declined. Also notify your bank before travelling to Doral to prevent fraud blocks on an in-person authorisation.

Doral is bordered by three major expressways, the Palmetto Expressway (SR-826), the Dolphin Expressway (SR-836), and the Ronald Reagan Turnpike (SR-821), all of which are cashless toll roads. When you hire a Budget vehicle in Doral, your vehicle will already include an electronic toll device or a plate-based billing system, since virtually no cash toll booths remain in the Miami area.

At the Budget counter in Doral, you will typically be offered two options:

• An unlimited toll package, costing approximately US$11 to US$15 per hire day, which covers all tolls during your hire period
• Pay-per-use billing, where Budget charges you the actual toll amount plus daily or administrative processing fees after the hire ends

If you prefer to use your own visitor toll pass, inform the Budget agent at pickup in Doral so they can deactivate the vehicle's default device and prevent duplicate charges. Toll charges can appear on your card days or even weeks after you return the car, as toll agencies process invoices in batches.

Florida has no congestion charges or emissions zones, so tolls are the only road fee to plan for in the Doral area.

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

Given that Doral is surrounded by cashless expressways such as the Palmetto (SR-826), Dolphin (SR-836), and the Florida Turnpike, toll costs can add up quickly, making this benefit especially useful for renters in the area.

To claim your cashback after returning your Budget vehicle in Doral:

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

Refunds are issued to the original payment method used for your booking and typically process within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Submissions received after 30 days are not accepted.

Yes, Budget in Doral applies a young-driver surcharge for drivers aged 21 to 24. In the United Kingdom, the standard minimum age to hire without additional fees is 25.

At Budget in Doral, the underage fee is US$13 per hire day, with a maximum charge of US$65 plus applicable taxes. This fee is paid at the counter and is not included in your prepaid rate.

Drivers under 25 are also restricted from hiring certain vehicle classes. Categories such as full-size, SUV, convertible, luxury, premium, minivan, and van are typically reserved for renters aged 25 and older. Economy, compact, medium saloon, standard saloon, compact SUV, and medium SUV are generally available to younger renters.

One important exception applies at Budget in Doral: if you are a citizen or resident of Latin America or the Caribbean, aged 21 to 24, and your Hola Car Rentals confirmation explicitly shows the underage fee is waived, you may qualify for the Avis and Budget underage fee exception. You must present a passport or ID proving your nationality at the Doral counter.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Budget hire in Doral, either as part of your rate or by paying a fee at the counter.

At Budget in Doral, the additional driver fee is US$13 per hire day, with a maximum charge of US$65 plus applicable taxes, when not included in your rate. Check your booking confirmation to see if an additional driver is already included at no extra cost.

Requirements for adding a driver at the Doral counter:

• The additional driver must be present at pickup and show a valid driver's licence
• They must meet the same document requirements as the main driver, including an IDP if their licence uses a non-Latin alphabet
• For Budget in Doral, additional drivers must generally be at least 25 years old
• Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the hire agreement

Only drivers listed on the hire agreement are covered by protections such as CDW and liability cover. Never allow an unlisted person to drive the Budget vehicle in Doral, as this can void your cover entirely.

Doral presents some driving conditions that can surprise first-time visitors, even those experienced with UK roads. When driving your Budget hire car in Doral, be aware of the following:

• Three major expressways form the city's borders: the Palmetto Expressway (SR-826) to the east, the Dolphin Expressway (SR-836) to the south, and the Ronald Reagan Turnpike (SR-821) to the west. All are cashless toll roads.
• The Dolphin-Palmetto interchange near Miami International Airport is complex, with tight merges and exits. It can be disorienting for drivers unfamiliar with the area.
• Traffic volumes on the Palmetto Expressway exceed 250,000 vehicles per day, and aggressive lane changes and tailgating are common in the Miami-Dade driving culture.
• Some arterial roads in Doral use reversible lanes with overhead green arrow or red X signals, a setup uncommon in most UK suburbs. Pay close attention to these signals.
• Ongoing road construction and grid expansions on NW 107th, 97th, and 87th Avenues may create temporary detours and unfamiliar lane configurations.

Planning your route in advance and allowing extra time when navigating around the Budget pickup location in Doral will help you avoid unnecessary stress.

Most bookings made through Hola Car Rentals, including Budget hires in Doral, include travel assistance provided by Terrawind Global Protection. This benefit is especially relevant if you experience an incident on Doral's busy expressways or during your travels in the Miami-Dade area.

Coverage typically includes:

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

If you need assistance while driving your Budget hire in or around Doral, contact Terrawind 24 hours a day, 7 days a week:

• Phone: +1 888 980 9992 (toll-free)
• WhatsApp: +1 208 910 1001
• Email: [email protected]

Have your full name and Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call. Please note that this benefit does not apply to residents of the United Kingdom or Canada. It also does not cover damage to the Budget hire vehicle itself, which is handled separately by CDW or LDW cover.

Budget hires in Doral follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid fuel charges.

At pickup, check the fuel gauge with the Budget agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on your hire agreement. Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and fuel gauge before leaving the Doral location.

When returning your Budget car in Doral:

• Refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location so the gauge does not drop before you arrive
• Keep your fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address
• Take a photo of the full gauge at the pump as evidence

If you return the vehicle below the recorded starting level, Budget may charge you for the fuel shortfall at their own refuelling rate, which is typically higher than retail pump prices, plus an administrative service fee. The Full-to-Full policy applies to petrol and diesel vehicles. If you are hiring an electric or plug-in hybrid vehicle in Doral, a separate charging policy applies, so confirm the details with the Budget agent at pickup.

Yes, it is possible to pick up your Budget in Doral and return it at a different location, but a one-way drop-off fee may apply depending on your route.

The drop-off fee is route-specific and varies by destination, vehicle class, and season. For example, returning a Budget vehicle from Doral to Miami International Airport (MIA) may involve little or no drop-off fee given the short distance, while returning to a city in another state would typically carry a higher fee.

How to check if a drop-off fee applies to your Doral Budget hire:

• During booking, select your different return location and review the rate details page
• Any applicable drop-off fee will appear under the section labelled as charges due at destination
• Your booking confirmation will also list this fee if it applies

The one-way fee cannot be prepaid and is settled directly with Budget at the Doral counter or return location. If the counter charges a fee that was not disclosed in your confirmation, keep all paperwork and contact support, as Hola Car Rentals' No Extra Charges© Coverage may apply.

The insurance cover included with your Budget hire in Doral depends on the rate plan you selected at booking. Review your Hola Car Rentals confirmation to confirm exactly what is covered.

Common cover types available for Budget hires in Doral include:

• Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW): reduces your financial liability for damage to the Budget vehicle from a collision or covered event. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation states zero deductible.
• Third-Party Liability (LIS/SLI/ALI): covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to other people or vehicles while driving in Doral. Some UK states require a minimum level of liability, but not all do, so adding supplemental liability is strongly recommended.

CDW and LDW do not cover third-party liability, your personal injuries, or your belongings. These require separate cover. Common exclusions include damage from prohibited use, driving off-road, or operating the Budget vehicle in restricted areas around Doral.

All drivers must be listed on the hire agreement for cover to apply. If someone not named on the contract drives the Budget car in Doral, cover may be void.

If you return your Budget hire car in Doral after the agreed return time, additional charges may apply. Budget typically allows a grace period of up to 30 minutes, though this is not guaranteed and can vary by location.

If you exceed the grace period at the Doral location:

• You may be charged for an additional hour or a full extra day, depending on how late the return is
• A late return fee may also apply on top of the time extension charge

If you know in advance that you will need more time with your Budget hire in Doral, contact the hire company as soon as possible to request an extension. Returning the car without notifying Budget can result in higher fees than if you had arranged the extension proactively.

Also keep in mind that the Budget kiosk at the Doral Miami International Mall location has specific operating hours. Returning outside those hours without prior arrangement may create complications. Confirm after-hours return procedures directly with the Budget agent at pickup in Doral, and always keep a copy of your hire agreement with the return instructions noted.
