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

Your minivan hire counter in Regina is located inside Regina International Airport (YQR) at 5201 Regina Ave, Regina, SK. The hire car counters for all major brands are in the Baggage Claim area, so after collecting your luggage you can walk directly to the counter without taking a shuttle.

The hire car parking lot is northwest of the long-term parking area, within easy walking distance of the terminal. Brands operating at this location include National, Avis, Enterprise, Hertz, and Budget.

Counter hours vary by brand. As a general guide:

• Enterprise: 8:00 AM to 11:59 PM daily
• Avis: 9:00 AM to 1:00 AM (next day), with 24-hour drop-off available
• Budget: Sunday and Saturday 9:00 AM to 1:30 AM, Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 1:30 AM
• National: after-hours return available

If you are returning your minivan, follow signs to 5201 Regina Avenue and look for the hire car area northwest of long-term parking. Budget also offers a Fastbreak Return box so you can drop off without visiting the counter.

No, there are no toll roads anywhere in Saskatchewan, so driving your minivan in Regina and throughout the province is completely toll-free. There are no electronic transponders, cashless toll lanes, congestion charges, or emissions zones to worry about, unlike destinations such as Toronto or Vancouver.

No toll programmes such as PlatePass or TollPass apply to Regina minivan hires, and you will not be billed any toll-related administrative fees for driving within Saskatchewan.

If your trip takes you outside Saskatchewan into provinces or regions that do have tolls, the Tolls Cashback benefit included with your booking can reimburse you up to 5% of your total booking value for any tolls paid during the hire period. Keep your toll receipts and submit a claim to [email protected] within 30 days of returning your minivan.

To collect your minivan hire in Regina, you must bring the following physical documents to the counter:

• A valid, original driver’s 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 excess)
• A passport or valid government photo ID
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight or travel tickets if you are visiting from abroad

If your driver’s licence is not in English and does not use a Latin alphabet (for example, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script), 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 your original licence.

All documents must be physical originals. Digital copies shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted at the Regina minivan hire counter. If you think you may need an IDP, obtain it in your home country before travelling, as it cannot be issued abroad.

When you pick up your minivan hire in Regina, the hire company will place a temporary authorisation hold on your credit card. For Canadian locations, this hold is typically in the range of CAD 300 to CAD 500, though some Regina locations may require a minimum authorisation of approximately CAD 750 for larger vehicles such as a minivan.

A few important points to keep in mind:

• The hold is not a charge. It temporarily reduces your available credit and is released after you return the minivan, provided all hire terms are met.
• Your bank controls how quickly the hold disappears after release. It can take up to 15 working days to reflect on your statement.
• Only a physical, major credit card in the main driver’s name with the driver’s name printed on the card is accepted. Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted for the deposit.
• Bring a backup credit card in case your primary card is declined.

The exact hold amount for your Regina minivan hire is set by the hire company at the counter and may vary by brand, vehicle class, and season. Notify your bank of your travel plans to avoid fraud blocks on the authorisation.

Regina has several driving rules that can catch visitors off guard, especially when driving a larger vehicle like a minivan.

• Speed zones: The default city speed is 50 km/h. School zones enforce 30 km/h from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM daily year-round. Community Safety Zones (such as the Cathedral Neighbourhood since 2024) enforce 40 km/h. Playground zones also drop to 30 km/h.
• Red light cameras: Photo-enforced cameras issue fines of approximately CAD 230 to the registered vehicle owner for running red lights, plus a CAD 60 late fee. Rolling right-on-red turns can also trigger a warning. As the renter, you are responsible for any tickets issued to the vehicle during your hire period.
• Pedestrian signals: Many intersections in Regina require pedestrians to press a button to activate the walk signal. Traffic flow is prioritised, so do not assume a walk phase will appear automatically.
• Construction zones: Temporary reduced speed limits apply even when workers are not visibly present, due to gravel hazards. Signage may be less frequent than in larger cities.
• Specialised turning signals: Some Regina intersections use dedicated green turning arrows during peak hours that give turning traffic priority over straight-through traffic.

Driving a minivan in Regina also means being aware of alley speed limits of 30 km/h and traffic diverters that restrict shortcutting through residential streets.

Yes, Regina enforces specific street parking restrictions that can directly affect minivan hires, particularly for larger models.

Vehicles over 6 metres in length or over 2,725 kg are classified as oversized and are subject to a 2-hour maximum street parking limit, which applies every day including weekends and holidays. Standard vehicles under that length are permitted up to 24 hours. Many minivan models fall below 6 metres, but loaded or extended configurations can approach or exceed that threshold, so confirm the dimensions of your specific minivan hire.

Additional parking rules that apply to all vehicles in Regina include:

• No parking within 10 metres of an intersection or T-intersection (except on the continuous side)
• No parking within 2 metres of a driveway or fire hydrant
• No parking within 3 metres of an alley
• No alley parking unless actively loading or unloading

During Mosaic Stadium events, a residential permit zone restricts non-resident parking in surrounding streets. If your minivan hire in Regina coincides with an event, plan for off-street parking options in advance. Paid parking meters in commercial areas typically enforce 2-hour limits on weekdays.

When you hire a minivan in Regina, your booking may include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW), which reduces your financial liability if the minivan is damaged or stolen during the hire period. A deductible may still apply unless your confirmation explicitly states zero deductible.

CDW/LDW does not cover everything. Common exclusions include:

• Damage to tyres, wheels, undercarriage, or the roof
• Damage caused by prohibited use such as off-road driving or driving under the influence
• Third-party liability (injuries or property damage you cause to others)

For third-party liability, Canadian provincial law requires every hire vehicle to carry a minimum level of statutory liability cover, which is included by default when you hire a minivan in Regina through Hola Car Rentals. You can also purchase supplementary liability (LIS/ALI/SLI) for higher limits if you prefer additional protection.

Always review your booking confirmation before picking up your minivan in Regina to confirm exactly which coverages are included and what deductible applies. At the counter, verify the hire agreement matches your confirmation before signing.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your minivan hire in Regina, either as an included benefit or for a daily fee depending on your rate.

If your booking confirmation states "Additional driver free of charge," the first extra driver is covered at no cost. If it is not included, fees vary by brand:

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

To add a driver to your Regina minivan hire, the additional driver must be present at the counter at pickup with a valid driver’s licence (and an IDP if required). Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the hire agreement. Anyone who drives the minivan without being listed on the agreement is not covered by CDW/LDW or liability protections.

For Avis, Budget, and Payless hires in Regina, the additional driver must be at least 25 years old at the time of pickup.

Travel assistance provided by Terrawind Global Protection is included with most bookings, but this benefit does not apply to Canadian or US residents. If you are visiting Regina from outside North America and hiring a minivan, you are likely eligible for this cover.

The travel assistance benefit typically includes:

• Medical cover for up to 5 passengers for accidents and non-pre-existing illnesses
• Legal assistance in the event of an accident during your minivan hire
• Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
• Flight cancellation insurance

If you experience a medical emergency or accident while driving your minivan in Regina or on Saskatchewan highways, contact the assistance line immediately before incurring expenses, as some reimbursements require prior authorisation:

• Phone (24/7, 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. Check your booking confirmation for the exact cover limits and terms that apply to your Regina minivan hire.

The standard fuel policy for a minivan hire in Regina is Full-to-Full. You receive the minivan with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.

Here is what to do at each stage of your hire:

• 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 gauge.
• During the hire: use the correct fuel type as shown in the minivan. Keep fuel receipts in case of any dispute.
• Before return: refuel within approximately 15 km of the Regina return location so the gauge does not drop below full before you arrive. Take a photo of the full gauge and keep the final receipt showing the station address and time.

If you return the minivan in Regina with less than a full tank, the hire company may 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 Regina Airport, leave your fuel receipt in the return envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge for your records.

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

How the fee works:

• The drop-off fee is route-specific and is set by the hire partner, not by Hola Car Rentals.
• It will be shown during the booking process under the "To pay at destination" section if it applies to your route.
• The fee is paid at the counter and cannot be pre-paid.
• Cross-border one-way hires (for example, from Regina to a US city) may be restricted or carry higher fees depending on the partner's rules.

When booking your one-way minivan hire from Regina, always review the details page for your selected rate to confirm whether a drop-off fee appears. If the fee is not listed, no one-way charge applies to that route. If the counter charges a different amount than what your confirmation shows, keep all paperwork and contact support, as the No Extra Charges© guarantee may apply to undisclosed fees.

When picking up a minivan hire at Regina International Airport (YQR), your total cost will include provincial and airport-related taxes and fees in addition to the base hire rate.

Typical charges for a minivan hire at Regina Airport include:

• GST (Goods and Services Tax): 5%
• Saskatchewan PST (Provincial Sales Tax): 6%
• Airport Improvement Fee: a standard Canadian airport surcharge, typically in the range of CAD 10 to CAD 15, though the exact amount is set by the airport authority

Whether these fees are included in your prepaid rate or due at the counter depends on your specific booking. Check your confirmation for the breakdown between "Taxes and Fees: Included" and "Total to pay at destination." If your confirmation shows taxes as included and the counter still attempts to charge them separately, the No Extra Charges© guarantee covers that situation.

Regina Airport minivan hires do not carry the higher airport concession surcharges seen at larger Canadian airports such as Vancouver, making the overall tax burden comparatively moderate. Always review the itemised pre-contract at the counter before signing to confirm all charges match your booking confirmation.

Yes, the Tolls Cashback benefit is included with all bookings, including your minivan hire in Regina. Saskatchewan has no toll roads, so you will not pay any tolls while driving within the province.

However, if your minivan hire takes you beyond Saskatchewan into regions that do have tolls, such as parts of Ontario or other provinces, the Tolls Cashback benefit reimburses you up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during the hire period.

To claim your cashback after returning your minivan in Regina:

• 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 booking confirmation, the signed hire 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 your booking

Refunds are processed to the original payment method used for your minivan hire and typically take 7 to 10 working days after approval. Claims submitted after 30 days are not accepted.
