No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your Hertz booking in Gulfport 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 Hertz 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 Hertz counter in Gulfport 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 Hertz 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 Hertz counter at Gulfport-Biloxi Regional Airport is located at 14035 Airport Road, Suite D, Gulfport, MS 39503. Because Gulfport-Biloxi Regional Airport is a compact facility, the Hertz rental area is accessible on-site without a long transit, and no consolidated rental center or train connection is involved.

After collecting your bags, follow the car rental signs toward the Hertz desk. Once paperwork is complete, you will proceed to the adjacent lot to pick up your vehicle. Allow roughly 20 to 45 minutes from arrival to driving away, depending on queue length and how quickly the Hertz agent processes your documents.

If you are not flying in and prefer an off-airport option, Hertz also operates a separate city location at 10495 B Highway 49, Gulfport. That location requires you to arrange your own transport (taxi, rideshare, etc.) since it is a standalone office on US-49 with no airport shuttle connection.

To collect your Hertz vehicle in Gulfport, you must bring the following physical documents to the counter:

• A valid, original driver's license 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 hold)
• A passport or valid government-issued photo ID
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets if you are visiting from abroad

If your driver's license is not in English and does not use a Latin (Roman) alphabet, for example Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory. For licenses in other non-English scripts, an IDP is strongly recommended. The IDP is a translation only and must be carried alongside your original license at the Hertz counter in Gulfport.

All documents must be physical originals. Digital copies shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted by Hertz or any other rental partner.

Yes, Hertz in Gulfport requires a physical major credit card in the main driver's name to place a security hold at pickup. Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual or single-use card numbers are not accepted for the deposit.

For a standard vehicle in the United States, Hertz and similar partners typically place a hold of around US$300 to US$400 on your card. The exact amount can vary based on vehicle class, rental duration, and location-specific rules at the Gulfport counter.

The hold is a temporary authorization, not a charge. It reduces your available credit until Hertz releases it after you return the vehicle. Your bank controls how quickly the hold disappears from your statement, which can take up to 15 business days after the rental closes.

Tips to avoid issues at the Gulfport Hertz counter:

• Confirm your card is enabled for in-person transactions and set a travel notice with your bank
• Bring a backup credit card in your own name in case your primary card is declined
• Make sure available credit covers the hold amount plus any expected charges

No, Mississippi has no toll roads, so you will not encounter any toll charges while driving your Hertz rental in or around Gulfport. There are no cashless toll systems, transponder requirements, or congestion charges anywhere in the state.

Because no tolls apply locally, you do not need to enroll in any toll program at the Hertz counter in Gulfport, and there is no risk of toll-related administrative fees or plate-billing charges during a trip that stays within Mississippi.

However, if your travel plans take you beyond Gulfport into neighboring states such as Louisiana or Florida, toll roads may apply in those areas. In that case, your Hertz vehicle will typically have an electronic toll device installed, and you can choose between an unlimited daily toll package (generally US$11 to US$25 per day, depending on the partner and location) or a pay-per-use arrangement where actual tolls plus processing fees are billed to your card after the rental ends.

Hola Car Rentals includes Tolls Cashback on all bookings, so any tolls you pay during your trip, whether in a neighboring state or elsewhere, may be partially reimbursed. See the next FAQ for details on how to claim.

All Hola Car Rentals bookings, including Hertz rentals starting in Gulfport, include Tolls Cashback. This benefit reimburses up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls you pay during the rental period.

Since Mississippi has no toll roads, you will only accumulate toll charges if your Hertz trip from Gulfport takes you into a state with tolls, such as Louisiana or Florida. Any tolls paid in those areas are eligible for the cashback claim.

To claim your reimbursement after returning your Hertz vehicle:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of the return date
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - followed by your reservation confirmation number
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation, the Hertz rental agreement, and a receipt or statement showing the toll charges paid
• Include your full name, travel dates, and the last 4 digits of the card used for the booking

Refunds are processed to the original payment method and typically arrive within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Claims submitted after 30 days are not accepted, so keep your toll receipts and submit promptly after your Gulfport Hertz rental ends.

The minimum age to rent a Hertz vehicle in Gulfport without a young-renter surcharge is 25. Drivers aged 21 to 24 can rent but will be charged an additional daily underage fee at the Hertz counter in Gulfport.

For Hertz, the young-renter surcharge is US$13.50 per rental day plus applicable taxes, with a maximum cap of US$189 plus taxes for the rental period. This fee is paid directly at the Gulfport counter and cannot be prepaid online.

Additional restrictions for under-25 renters at Hertz in Gulfport include:

• Most premium, full-size, luxury, SUV, van, and convertible vehicle classes are restricted to drivers 25 and older
• Economy, compact, and intermediate categories are generally available to younger renters
• A valid driver's license and a major credit card in the renter's name are still required regardless of age

Drivers under 21 are not eligible to rent with Hertz in Gulfport or elsewhere in Mississippi. If you are unsure whether your chosen vehicle class is available for your age group, contact customer service before booking.

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

For Hertz, the additional driver fee is US$13.50 per rental day plus taxes, with a maximum charge of US$189 plus taxes for the full rental period. This fee is paid at the Gulfport Hertz counter and is not prepaid online unless your booking confirmation explicitly states that an additional driver is included at no charge.

Requirements for adding a driver at the Gulfport Hertz counter:

• The additional driver must be present at pickup with a valid driver's license
• If their license uses a non-Latin alphabet (Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Cyrillic), an International Driving Permit is also required
• The additional driver must meet the minimum age requirement; drivers under 25 may face a young-renter surcharge or be declined depending on their age
• Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement

Only drivers listed on the Hertz rental agreement in Gulfport are covered by the vehicle's protections such as CDW/LDW. Anyone not named on the contract who drives the car may void coverage entirely.

Hertz rentals in Gulfport follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid fuel charges.

Steps to follow for a smooth fuel return near the Gulfport Hertz locations:

• At pickup, confirm the fuel gauge reads full and that the starting level is recorded on the Hertz rental agreement
• Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and fuel gauge
• Refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location before dropping off the car
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address
• Show the full gauge to the Hertz agent at the Gulfport return lot, or leave the receipt in the key envelope for after-hours drops

If you return the Hertz vehicle in Gulfport with less than a full tank, you may be charged for the fuel shortfall at the partner's refueling rate, which is typically higher than the pump price, plus an administrative service fee.

Note that fuel prices in the Gulfport-Biloxi area have historically been slightly below the National average, so refueling locally before returning to the Hertz lot at 14035 Airport Road or 10495 B Highway 49 is a cost-effective choice.

Yes, one-way rentals with Hertz from Gulfport to another city are possible, but a drop-off fee may apply depending on the route, vehicle class, and season.

When booking a one-way Hertz rental that starts in Gulfport, the drop-off fee, if applicable, will appear on the booking details page under the section labeled "To pay at destination." This fee is set by Hertz, is route-specific, and cannot be prepaid through the booking platform.

General patterns to expect:

• Short regional routes within Mississippi may carry a lower or no drop-off fee
• Long-distance routes, for example Gulfport to Dallas or Gulfport to Atlanta, typically include a one-way fee
• Premium, large SUV, and specialty vehicle classes often carry higher repositioning fees
• Cross-border one-ways, such as Gulfport to a location in Mexico or Canada, are generally restricted or require special authorization from Hertz

If you need to change your drop-off location after booking, the rental will be repriced and the drop-off fee may increase. Always review your confirmation to verify the fee shown matches what you agreed to at the Gulfport Hertz counter.

The insurance and protection options included in your Hertz rental in Gulfport depend on the rate plan selected at booking. It is important to review your confirmation carefully before arriving at the Gulfport Hertz counter.

Common coverages and what they protect:

• Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW): reduces your financial liability for damage to the Hertz vehicle from a collision, theft, or vandalism. A deductible may still apply unless your plan states zero excess.
• Third-Party Liability (LIS/ALI/SLI): covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to other people or vehicles. Some U.S. states require a minimum liability level; Mississippi does not mandate a specific minimum for rental companies, so confirming this coverage is included in your Hertz Gulfport booking is strongly recommended.

What these coverages do not include:

• Damage to tires, undercarriage, roof, or keys unless specifically added
• Personal injuries to you or your passengers (that requires PAI)
• Your personal belongings (that requires PEC)
• Any incident involving an unauthorized driver not listed on the Hertz agreement

Always confirm which protections appear on the Hertz rental agreement at the Gulfport counter before signing.

If your flight into Gulfport-Biloxi Regional Airport is delayed, Hertz will generally hold your reservation for up to 24 hours from the original scheduled pickup time. As long as you arrive within that window and the Hertz counter is still open, your booking should be honored.

Key points to keep in mind:

• If the delay is less than 24 hours, proceed to the Hertz counter at 14035 Airport Road, Suite D, Gulfport as soon as you land
• If the delay will push your arrival beyond 24 hours from the original pickup time, contact support as soon as possible via WhatsApp at +1 (786) 999-8312 or by email at [email protected]
• Arriving after counter hours may mean the Hertz desk is closed; confirm operating hours for the Gulfport location in advance and check whether after-hours pickup arrangements are available
• If the booking is forfeited due to a delay beyond 24 hours, no automatic refund applies, so early communication is essential

Because Gulfport-Biloxi Regional Airport is a smaller facility, counter staffing hours may be more limited than at major hubs. Checking the Hertz Gulfport counter hours before your travel date is a practical precaution.

Yes, most Hola Car Rentals bookings, including Hertz rentals in Gulfport, include travel assistance provided by Terrawind Global Protection. However, this benefit applies only to travelers who are not residents or citizens of the United States or Canada. US and Canadian residents do not qualify for this coverage.

For eligible renters, the travel assistance covers scenarios that could arise during a Hertz rental in Gulfport or on a road trip along the Mississippi Gulf Coast, such as:

• Medical emergencies for up to 5 passengers
• Legal assistance in the event of a road accident
• Compensation for baggage lost by the airline on your way to Gulfport
• Flight cancellation insurance

This coverage does not include damage to the Hertz vehicle (that is CDW/LDW) or liability to third parties (that is LIS/ALI/SLI).

To reach the assistance line 24 hours a day, 7 days a week:

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

Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call, along with your location and a description of the situation.

Yes, you can return your Hertz rental to a different location than the one where you picked it up in Gulfport, but a one-way drop-off fee may apply and must be reviewed before confirming your booking.

Hertz operates two locations in Gulfport: the airport counter at 14035 Airport Road and the off-airport office at 10495 B Highway 49. Returning between these two Gulfport locations may or may not carry a fee depending on Hertz's current routing rules.

If you plan to return the vehicle outside Gulfport entirely, for example to New Orleans, Memphis, or another city, the drop-off fee will be shown on the booking details page under "To pay at destination" during checkout. This fee is paid directly to Hertz at the end of the rental and cannot be prepaid.

Things to keep in mind:

• Changing your drop-off location after booking will reprice the rental and may increase the fee
• Cross-border returns, such as returning a Gulfport Hertz vehicle in Mexico or Canada, are generally not permitted without prior authorization
• If the Hertz counter charges a drop-off fee that was not disclosed on your confirmation, keep all paperwork and contact support, as Hola Car Rentals' No Extra Charges© Coverage may apply after verification
