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

At Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) in Nevada, there are no hire car counters inside the terminals. All major brands operate from a single consolidated Hire Car Centre located at 7135 Gilespie Street, Las Vegas, NV 89119.

To reach it, follow these steps after landing:

• Collect your luggage from baggage claim in Terminal 1 or Terminal 3
• Follow signs for "Ground Transportation" or "Hire Car Shuttle"
• Board the free shuttle at Terminal 1 (Doors 10 to 11, Level 1) or Terminal 3 (Doors 51 to 58, Level 0)
• Shuttles run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, departing approximately every 5 minutes
• The journey to the Hire Car Centre takes 10 to 15 minutes

Once at the Hire Car Centre, proceed to your brand's counter, present your driving licence, credit card, and any additional required documents, then collect your vehicle. Allow 15 to 30 minutes in total from baggage claim to driving away, depending on counter volume. After returning your Nevada hire, a free shuttle will take you back to the terminals in roughly 5 to 10 minutes.

No, Nevada has no toll roads. All public highways, motorways, state routes, and local roads in Nevada are toll-free, including heavily used corridors such as I-15, I-80, US-95, and US-50.

Because Nevada has no toll infrastructure, there is no need to enrol in any hire car toll programme such as PlatePass, Avis e-Toll, or similar services when driving within the state. No transponder charges, cashless toll fees, or congestion charges apply.

If your Nevada trip takes you into neighbouring states such as California, toll roads do exist there. For example, Southern California has fully cashless express lanes and Orange County toll roads that use FasTrak. If you plan to cross into California, review the toll situation for that region before you go.

State park entry fees in Nevada, such as the per-vehicle fee at Valley of Fire State Park, are separate from tolls and must be paid at the park entrance. They are not covered by any hire car toll programme.

To collect a hire car in Nevada, you must present the following at the counter:

• A valid, original, physical driving licence in the main driver’s name
• A major credit card with the driver’s name printed on the card, used for the authorisation hold
• A passport or valid government-issued photo ID
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight tickets or travel itinerary (required for visitors arriving 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. For licences in other non-English scripts, an IDP is strongly recommended. The IDP is a translation only and must be carried alongside your original licence.

For Nevada pickups at non-airport locations such as downtown Las Vegas depots, some suppliers also require a recent utility bill or bank statement showing your name and address matching your licence.

All documents must be physical originals. Digital copies shown on a phone are not accepted at the counter.

Yes, all Hola Car Rentals bookings include Tolls Cashback, which reimburses up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your hire period.

Since Nevada itself has no toll roads, this benefit becomes relevant if your Nevada hire takes you into neighbouring states such as California, where toll roads and cashless express lanes do exist. Any tolls you pay on those routes during your hire are eligible for the cashback claim.

To claim your Nevada hire's Tolls Cashback:

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

The refund is processed to the same payment method used for your booking and typically arrives within 7 to 10 working days after approval. Claims submitted after 30 days are not accepted.

Nevada has some driving rules that differ from neighbouring states and are important to know before getting behind the wheel of a hire car.

Speed limits in Nevada:

• Rural motorways: up to 80 mph, higher than most neighbouring states
• Urban motorways: 65 mph
• Highways: 70 mph
• Residential streets: 25 to 30 mph
• School zones: 15 to 25 mph

Nevada enforces a Basic Speed Rule, which requires drivers to travel at a speed that is safe for current road and weather conditions, even if that means driving below the posted limit. Desert storms and variable road surfaces are common on Nevada highways.

Extreme speeding is treated seriously in Nevada. Driving 30 or more mph over the posted limit is classified as reckless driving and carries a minimum fine of US$1,240 plus potential jail time. Nevada records more than 5,100 citations per year for speeds exceeding 100 mph.

Other Nevada-specific rules to note:

• Motorcycle lane splitting is illegal in Nevada, unlike in California where it is permitted
• Handheld mobile phone use while driving is banned
• A 3-foot overtaking clearance is required when overtaking cyclists

If your flight is delayed and you arrive later than your scheduled pickup time at Harry Reid International Airport in Nevada, hire companies will generally hold your reservation for up to 24 hours from the original pickup time.

However, there are important details to keep in mind for Nevada airport pickups:

• Grace periods vary by supplier and are not guaranteed to be long enough to cover the time needed to exit the terminal, collect luggage, and ride the shuttle to the off-site Hire Car Centre
• If your scheduled pickup time was, for example, 23:30 and your flight lands just after midnight, your reservation could be treated as a no-show before you physically reach the counter
• Including your flight number in your reservation helps some suppliers track delays automatically

To protect your Nevada hire in case of a delay, set your pickup time to a realistic post-landing estimate that accounts for baggage claim and the 10 to 15 minute shuttle ride to the Hire Car Centre. If your delay exceeds 24 hours, contact support as soon as possible, since changes are not guaranteed but the team will assist where possible.

When collecting a hire car in Nevada, the partner desk places a temporary authorisation hold on your credit card as a security deposit. This is not a charge but it reduces your available credit until the hire is concluded and your bank releases the hold.

Typical hold amounts in the United States, including Nevada, range from approximately US$300 to US$400 for standard vehicle classes. Premium or speciality vehicles may require a higher hold. The exact amount is set by the hire company at the counter and can vary by brand, location, and vehicle class.

Important requirements for the deposit in Nevada:

• A physical, major credit card with the driver’s name printed on the card is required
• Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted for the authorisation hold
• The card must be in the main driver’s name and have sufficient available credit

After you return the vehicle, the hold is released. Your bank controls how quickly it disappears from your statement, which can take up to 15 working days. Bringing a backup credit card is recommended in case your primary card is declined at the Nevada counter.

Yes, drivers aged 21 to 24 renting a vehicle in Nevada are subject to a daily young-driver surcharge, payable at the counter when collecting the vehicle.

Typical daily surcharge amounts by brand in the United States, including Nevada locations:

• Avis, Budget, and Payless: US$13 per hire day, capped at US$65
• Hertz, Thrifty, and Dollar: US$13.50 per hire day, capped at US$189
• Alamo, National, and Enterprise: US$15 per day with no stated cap

In addition to the surcharge, most vehicle categories are restricted for drivers under 25 in Nevada. Economy, compact, and intermediate categories are generally available, while full-size, SUV, luxury, convertible, and van classes typically require the driver to be 25 or older.

One exception applies to drivers aged 21 to 24 from Latin America and the Caribbean renting through Hola Car Rentals with Avis or Budget in the United States, including Nevada. When the waiver is explicitly shown on the booking confirmation, the young-driver fee is waived for the main driver on eligible vehicle categories. Check your confirmation to see if this applies to your Nevada booking.

Most Hola Car Rentals bookings include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection, which can be valuable when driving Nevada's remote desert highways and rural stretches far from urban centres.

Core benefits typically included:

• Travel and 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

This cover is designed for situations such as a medical emergency on a remote Nevada highway or a legal issue following a traffic incident. To activate assistance at any time, contact Terrawind at +1 888 980 9992 (toll-free, available 24 hours a day) or via WhatsApp at +1 208 910 1001. Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call.

Important: this travel assistance benefit does not apply to residents of the United States or Canada. It is available exclusively to customers from other countries hiring in Nevada. It also does not cover damage to the hire vehicle itself, which is handled separately by CDW or LDW cover.

Review your booking confirmation for the exact terms and cover limits that apply to your Nevada hire.

It depends on your driving licence. In Nevada, visitors can generally drive with a valid foreign licence, but an International Driving Permit (IDP) may be required in certain situations.

An IDP is mandatory in Nevada if your licence uses a non-Latin alphabet, such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script. In these cases, the IDP serves as a certified translation and must be carried alongside your original licence at all times.

An IDP is strongly recommended, though not strictly mandatory, if your licence is not in English and uses a Latin alphabet. Some hire desk staff in Nevada may still request one at their discretion.

Key points to remember:

• The IDP is a translation document only, not a standalone licence
• You must carry both your original licence and the IDP together
• Obtain your IDP in your home country before travelling to Nevada, as US-based organisations do not issue IDPs to non-US licence holders
• All documents presented at the Nevada hire desk must be physical originals, not digital copies

Hire cars in Nevada 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.

To avoid fuel charges on your Nevada hire:

• Check the fuel gauge with the agent at pickup 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 km of the return location, whether that is the Hire Car Centre at Harry Reid International Airport or another Nevada drop-off point
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address

If you return the vehicle below the recorded starting level, the hire company may charge you for the fuel shortfall at their own refuelling rate, which is typically higher than the pump price, plus an administrative fee.

If the vehicle was not full at collection, ask the agent to record the exact level on the hire agreement. You are then only required to return it at that same level, not necessarily full.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Nevada hire car, either as part of your booking rate or by paying a daily fee at the counter.

Some Hola Car Rentals rates include one additional driver at no extra cost. Check your booking confirmation for the line "Additional driver free of charge" to see if this applies to your Nevada reservation.

If the additional driver is not included in your rate, typical daily fees at Nevada counters are:

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

Requirements for adding a driver in Nevada:

• The additional driver must be present at the counter at collection
• They must present a valid driving licence and any required IDP
• They must meet the minimum age requirement for the Nevada location
• For Avis, Budget, and Payless, additional drivers must generally be at least 25 years old

Only drivers named on the hire agreement are covered by the vehicle's protections. Anyone not listed who drives the Nevada hire may void cover.

When hiring a car in Nevada, two main types of cover are worth understanding before you arrive at the counter.

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) covers damage to the hire vehicle itself 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 people.

Third-Party Liability (LIS, ALI, or SLI) covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to others while driving the Nevada hire. Not all US states require hire companies to include minimum liability cover by default. Nevada renters are strongly encouraged to add supplementary liability cover, especially when driving high-speed rural motorways where Nevada allows up to 80 mph.

What these covers do not include:

• Your own personal injuries, which require Personal Accident Insurance (PAI)
• Your personal belongings, which require Personal Effects Cover (PEC)
• Damage from prohibited use such as off-road driving or driving under the influence

Review your booking confirmation to confirm which covers are included in your Nevada rate and whether a deductible applies. If in doubt, adding both CDW and supplementary liability before your Nevada collection provides the broadest protection.
