Will I face unexpected charges at the National counter in Oklahoma when I book through Hola Car Rentals?
No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your booking in Oklahoma 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 Oklahoma 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)
Where is the National car hire counter at Oklahoma City Will Rogers World Airport?
National car hire operates from the consolidated rental car facility at Oklahoma City Will Rogers World Airport (OKC), located at 5201 S Meridian Ave, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73119.
After landing, follow the Ground Transportation signs inside the terminal to reach the shuttle bus stop. A consolidated shuttle runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, connecting the terminal to the hire car facility where the National counter is located. The Emerald Aisle programme is available at this Oklahoma location, allowing eligible members to skip the counter and choose their vehicle directly from the aisle.
National counter hours at OKC are 08:00 to 23:59 daily. After-hours vehicle returns are available using the Drop and Go option, and the shuttle continues operating around the clock even when the counter is closed.
Which Oklahoma airports have a National car hire location?
National car hire has three airport locations in Oklahoma. All are at airports; there are no confirmed downtown or off-airport National locations in the state.
- Oklahoma City Will Rogers World Airport (OKC), 5201 S Meridian Ave, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73119, the busiest National location in the state, with Emerald Aisle and after-hours return available
- Tulsa International Airport (TUL), Tulsa, Oklahoma, standard airport pickup process applies
- Lawton Airport, Lawton, Oklahoma
If you are flying into Oklahoma City or Tulsa, your National hire will be at the airport facility. Because all Oklahoma locations are airport-based, renters arriving by other means should confirm availability directly before booking.
What documents do I need to pick up a National hire car in Oklahoma?
To collect your National hire car in Oklahoma, you must present the following physical documents at the counter:
- Your original, unexpired driver’s licence in the main driver’s name
- A major credit card with the driver’s name printed on the physical card, used for the authorisation hold
- A valid passport or government-issued photo ID
- Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
- Round-trip flight or cruise tickets (required for visitors from outside the United States)
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 alongside your original licence. For licences in English or a Latin alphabet, an IDP is recommended but not strictly required at most Oklahoma National locations.
All documents must be physical originals. Digital copies shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted at the National counter in Oklahoma.
Does National car hire in Oklahoma include Tolls Cashback for Oklahoma turnpikes?
Yes, all Hola Car Rentals bookings, including National car hire reservations in Oklahoma, include Tolls Cashback of up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your hire.
Oklahoma has an extensive turnpike network managed by the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority. Key routes you may encounter include the Turner Turnpike (I-44, connecting Tulsa and Oklahoma City, approximately 88 miles), the Will Rogers Turnpike (I-44, from Tulsa to the Missouri state line), and the H.E. Bailey Turnpike (I-44, from Oklahoma City towards Lawton). Tolls on these roads are charged based on vehicle class and distance.
To claim your Tolls Cashback after returning your National hire in Oklahoma:
- Email [email protected] within 30 days of vehicle return
- Include your Hola Car Rentals reservation confirmation, the signed hire agreement, and a receipt or statement showing the toll charges paid
- Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback, followed by your reservation number
Refunds are issued to your original payment method and typically process within 7 to 10 business days after approval. The cashback cap is 5% of your total booking value.
How do tolls work on Oklahoma turnpikes with a National hire car?
Oklahoma operates several toll roads through the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority, including the Turner Turnpike, the Will Rogers Turnpike, the H.E. Bailey Turnpike, the Creek Turnpike, and others. Oklahoma's electronic toll system is called PIKEPASS, which is interoperable with K-Tag and NTTA transponders. E-ZPass is not accepted on Oklahoma turnpikes.
When driving a National hire car in Oklahoma, your options for paying tolls are:
- Use the toll programme offered by National at the counter, which typically charges a daily convenience fee (around US$4.95 to US$5.35 per usage day, capped per hire) plus the actual toll amounts, billed via licence plate if no transponder is active
- Opt out of the hire toll programme and pay cash at booths where available, or purchase your own PIKEPASS visitor transponder for discounted rates
- Do nothing and risk being billed automatically through licence plate tolling, often with added administrative fees
If you plan to use your own transponder, inform the National counter representative at pickup in Oklahoma and ask them to deactivate the vehicle's default toll device to avoid duplicate charges. Toll charges may appear on your credit card days or weeks after the hire ends.
What is the security deposit for a National hire car in Oklahoma?
When picking up a National hire car in Oklahoma, the counter will place a temporary authorisation hold on your credit card. This is not a charge; it reduces your available credit until released after the hire ends.
For standard vehicles at United Kingdom locations, typical holds range from approximately US$300 to US$400. The exact amount at Oklahoma National locations may vary depending on the vehicle class, hire duration, and the specific airport location. Premium or larger vehicles may carry a higher hold.
Important requirements for the deposit at any National counter in Oklahoma:
- The card must be a major credit card (not a debit card, prepaid card, or virtual card)
- The card must be in the main driver’s name with the driver’s name physically printed on the card
- You must have sufficient available credit to cover the hold plus any expected charges
After you return the vehicle, the hold is released. Your bank or card issuer controls how quickly it clears, and it can take up to 15 business days to appear back on your available balance. Bringing a backup credit card is always recommended when hiring in Oklahoma.
Can drivers under 25 hire a car from National in Oklahoma?
Yes, drivers aged 21 to 24 can hire a car from National in Oklahoma, but a young-driver surcharge applies and certain vehicle classes are restricted.
In Oklahoma, as in most U.S. states, the standard minimum age for National car hire without a surcharge is 25. Drivers aged 21 to 24 are permitted but will pay an additional daily fee. For National, Alamo, and Enterprise, this fee is approximately US$15 per day, payable at the counter in Oklahoma.
Vehicle class restrictions also apply to under-25 renters. Categories such as full-size sedans, SUVs, minivans, luxury, premium, and convertible vehicles are typically reserved for drivers aged 25 and older. Economy, compact, and intermediate classes are generally available to younger renters at Oklahoma National locations.
Drivers under 21 are not eligible to hire from National in Oklahoma. All standard document and credit card requirements still apply regardless of age, including a valid driver’s licence and a major credit card in the main driver’s name.
How does the fuel policy work for National hire cars in Oklahoma?
National hire cars in Oklahoma follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.
Steps to follow for a smooth fuel return at Oklahoma National locations:
- 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 or 15 kilometres of the return facility before dropping off the vehicle
- Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address
- For after-hours returns at Oklahoma City or Tulsa, leave the receipt in the drop envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge
If you return the National vehicle in Oklahoma without a full tank, you may be charged for the fuel shortfall at the partner's refuelling rate, which is typically higher than retail pump prices, plus a refuelling service fee. Using the correct fuel type is also important, as wrong-fuel incidents are not covered by the fuel policy.
Does travel assistance cover a breakdown on Oklahoma highways with a National hire?
Yes, most Hola Car Rentals bookings include travel assistance provided by Terrawind Global Protection, which can help in situations such as a breakdown on an Oklahoma highway or a medical emergency during your National hire.
Core benefits typically included are:
- Travel insurance with medical coverage for up to 5 passengers
- Legal assistance in case of an accident
- Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
- Flight cancellation insurance
If you experience an emergency while driving your National hire on an Oklahoma road such as the Turner Turnpike or the H.E. Bailey Turnpike, contact the assistance line immediately:
- Phone (24/7, toll-free or collect): +1 888 980 9992
- WhatsApp: +1 208 910 1001
- Email: [email protected]
Provide your full name, your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number, your location in Oklahoma, and a brief description of the situation. Follow the coordinator's instructions and keep all receipts and reports.
Important: this travel assistance benefit does not apply to residents of the United States or Canada. It also does not cover damage to the National hire vehicle itself, which is handled separately by CDW or LDW coverage.
Can I add an additional driver to my National hire in Oklahoma?
Yes, you can add an additional driver to your National hire in Oklahoma, either at no cost if your rate includes it or for a daily fee paid at the counter.
For National, Alamo, and Enterprise hires in Oklahoma, the additional driver fee is approximately US$15 per day when not included in your rate. Check your booking confirmation to see whether an additional driver is already included in your plan.
Requirements for adding a driver at the National counter in Oklahoma:
- The additional driver must be present at pickup with a valid driver’s licence
- They must meet the minimum age requirements (21 to 24 with a surcharge, 25 and older without)
- If their licence uses a non-Latin alphabet, an International Driving Permit is also required
- Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the hire agreement
Only drivers listed on the National hire agreement in Oklahoma are covered by protections such as CDW and liability coverage. Anyone who drives the vehicle without being named on the contract may void those protections and result in additional charges.
Can I return my National hire car after hours at Oklahoma City airport?
Yes, after-hours vehicle returns are available at the National car hire facility at Oklahoma City Will Rogers World Airport (OKC) in Oklahoma.
The National counter at OKC operates from 08:00 to 23:59 daily. If you need to return the vehicle outside those hours, the Drop and Go after-hours return option is available. The consolidated shuttle between the terminal and the hire car facility at 5201 S Meridian Ave runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so you can reach the return area at any time.
For a smooth after-hours return of your National hire in Oklahoma:
- Refuel within approximately 10 miles of the OKC hire facility before arriving
- Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and full fuel gauge
- Place the keys in the designated drop box as instructed
- Keep your fuel receipt and any paperwork in case of post-hire questions
Note that when returning after hours, the vehicle condition is assessed the next business day. Documenting the car's condition with photos at the time of return protects you against any disputed damage claims.
Is third-party liability insurance included in a National hire in Oklahoma?
Third-party liability cover is not automatically guaranteed at the same level for all renters, and the situation in Oklahoma depends on your specific rate and what is shown on your booking confirmation.
In the United Kingdom, some states require hire companies to include state-minimum third-party liability by law, but not all states do. Oklahoma does not have a universal mandate requiring hire companies to include supplementary liability at high limits. This means that without adding Liability Insurance Supplementary (LIS) to your National hire in Oklahoma, your cover for injury or property damage caused to others may be limited to the state minimum or your own personal auto policy if it extends to hire vehicles.
Hola Car Rentals strongly recommends adding LIS (up to US$300,000) to your National hire in Oklahoma. This cover:
- Protects you against bodily injury and property damage claims from third parties
- Is separate from CDW or LDW, which only covers damage to the National hire vehicle itself
- Applies only to drivers named on the hire agreement
Check your booking confirmation to see whether LIS is included in your selected rate or listed as an optional add-on available at the Oklahoma National counter.
Can I pick up a National hire in Oklahoma City and drop it off in another city?
Yes, one-way hires are possible with National car hire in Oklahoma, but a drop-off fee may apply depending on your specific route.
If you pick up your National vehicle at Oklahoma City Will Rogers World Airport and return it to a different city or airport, such as Tulsa International Airport or a location outside Oklahoma, the booking system will calculate whether a drop-off fee applies for that route. This fee is route-specific and varies by distance, vehicle class, and season.
How to check and manage the drop-off fee for your Oklahoma National hire:
- During the booking process on the Hola Car Rentals website, select your different return location and the drop-off fee, if applicable, will appear under the "To pay at destination" section on the rate details page
- Review your booking confirmation to confirm the fee is listed correctly
- At the National counter in Oklahoma, verify the drop-off fee matches your confirmation before signing the hire agreement
Cross-border one-way hires, such as returning a National vehicle from Oklahoma to another country, may be restricted or require prior authorisation. Always confirm cross-border rules with National before your trip.
