"I really liked the reservation screen for pickup times...side by side let's you easy match pick-up drop off. The vehicles were the best price (discounted prices for European travelers in the US at thus writing), otherwise rental car prices are rather high these days. Insurance is about peace of mind. Hola is over the top covering many of those extras the agent wants you to buy. And toll coverage up to 5%. Super. Without human attendants anymore, it's complicated in the Bay Area and particularly expensive in Miami (!) Auto companies see it as an opportunity to sell you lots of Toll coverage. Finally, what I did not notice was, "not knowing what I was renting" which is often noticed just before you press 'book'. The question did not enter my mind, that's a good thing. Their AI agent, perfectly better. Very good advice. And I did have the need to cancel and rebook. With the app, effective and bug free. One refund was credited in a hour. Another may take a few days, but will post. Also the app will display prices in the currency you select. Looking forward to booking with Hola again"

"This is not the first time we’ve rented cars through Hola, and each time we’re absolutely satisfied! Their service is excellent — always available, providing immediate responses, quickly solving any issues with kindness, and handling everything directly with the rental companies when needed. Even when a refund was required, they took care of it fully without any hassle. The personal, reliable, and professional approach makes all the difference. A fantastic experience every time, and I’ll definitely keep renting through them and highly recommend them to everyone"

"The experience was excellent, fast and easy with the least effort required to chose a car. From past experience the counter experience was favourable at Budget Miami Airport with no issues. This was the first time an agent at a rental desk did not try to sell me additional insurance or toll pass. My only concerns for this booking was the price gap was too high for standard cars compared to the basic cars."

"Unfortunately I had to cancel my booking with Hola Car Rentals for personal reasons. I was assisted by the Sales Manager Karen to do this. After completing the cancellation efficiently and promptly she went above and beyond to help me with several additional questions I had. Based on my experience I would highly recommend Hola Car Rentals Customer service and would definitely use them again. Their rental prices were very competitive too."

"As a Korean, I used the app to rent a car in California. The Dollar Rent-a-Car employee at the San Francisco branch was rude and insisted I purchase additional insurance ($25 per day) because the insurance I purchased through the Hola app was inadequate. However, Hola insisted that the full coverage policy applied and helped me cancel the additional insurance I had purchased at the Dollar Rent-a-Car location. I'm satisfied with Hola's customer service, but I think the Dollar Rent-a-Car employee's practice of selling additional insurance needs to be addressed."

"Wow! My first booking with Hola didn’t just meet expectations — they absolutely exceeded them in every possible way. So much so, that I made another rental booking immediately. I’m not usually someone who takes the time to write reviews, but this experience was so exceptional that I felt compelled to share it. At first, I thought I had secured a great price — but when I carefully reviewed the list of inclusions, I was genuinely blown away. In fact, it almost seemed too good to be true. I found myself double- and triple-checking my bookings, convinced there must have been some sort of system error. But no — everything was exactly as promised, and more - with NO extra cost. What truly stood out was the reaction from others. When I shared the pricing and inclusions with the Avis desk at the airport, hotel staff, as well as family and friends, they were equally astonished. Several even asked for your details on the spot — which says everything about the incredible value and service you provide. One thing worthy of note. Avis offered upgrades which I refused on the grounds that it might change the underlying agreement and result in added costs - be careful of adding extras at the point of collection. Regardless, the vehicles reserved were excellent. You have now become my absolute first choice — my go-to destination for rentals without hesitation. Experiences like this are rare, and you’ve set a new benchmark for excellence. Please keep up the outstanding work — you’ve gained a loyal customer for life."

About renting a car with Avis in Tennessee

Avis operates at all four of Tennessee's commercial airports — Nashville International Airport (BNA), Memphis International Airport (MEM), McGhee Tyson Airport (TYS) in Knoxville, and Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (CHA) — with counter locations ranging from dedicated baggage-level desks to on-site parking garages that eliminate shuttle waits entirely. Demand peaks during summer months when the Great Smoky Mountains draw the heaviest visitor traffic, so booking several weeks ahead helps secure both availability and better pricing. Tennessee's toll network is limited compared to states like Florida or Texas, but urban "Choice Lanes" with electronic tolling are being introduced in some metro corridors; Avis offers an e-Toll service with a daily convenience fee of around US$3.95–5.95 plus per-use toll charges, or a flat unlimited option that covers all tolls for a fixed daily rate. Fuel averages roughly US$3.47 per gallon statewide, with Nashville typically running a few cents higher than Memphis or Knoxville — refuel before returning to avoid the rental company's fuel service charge, which runs well above pump price. Budget for a deposit hold of around US$200 on a credit card in the primary driver's name at pickup; debit cards are not accepted. Drivers whose license uses a non-Latin script — Arabic, Chinese, Cyrillic, or Japanese, for example — should carry an International Driving Permit alongside their home license.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does my Hola Car Rentals booking with Avis in Tennessee include that other companies don't offer?

Hola Car Rentals is the only premium partner of the top car rental brands operating in Tennessee, including Avis, giving you exclusive access to our All Inclusive+ rate. This rate includes benefits that no other company can match:

  • Free liability coverage starting at US$ 300,000 in case of an accident (applies only to certain rates and itineraries)
  • Toll cashback: recover up to 5% of the reservation's total value for toll charges incurred during your rental period
  • Premium travel medical assistance providing up to US$ 150,000 in coverage for a maximum of 5 passengers in case of a medical emergency, excluding pre-existing conditions
  • No Extra Charges© guarantee: if the counter charges you for something not listed on your confirmation and not an optional add-on you accepted, Hola Car Rentals will work to remove or reimburse the charge after verification

All of this comes at no extra cost, ensuring a fully protected Avis rental experience and peace of mind throughout your trip in Tennessee.

Will I face unexpected charges at the Avis counter in Tennessee when I book through Hola Car Rentals?

No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your Avis booking in Tennessee 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 Avis 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 Avis counter in Tennessee 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 Avis 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)
Are there toll roads in Tennessee that I need to worry about with my Avis rental?

No, Tennessee has no toll roads, toll bridges, or toll tunnels anywhere in the state, so you will not encounter any toll charges during your Avis rental while driving within Tennessee.

This means you do not need to worry about transponder programs, cashless toll lanes, or any toll-related fees on common routes such as I-40 between Nashville and Knoxville or I-65 between Nashville and Memphis. The Avis E-Toll program is simply not applicable within Tennessee.

If your trip takes you beyond Tennessee into neighboring states that do have toll roads, your Avis vehicle will include an electronic toll device. In that case, you can choose an unlimited toll package at the counter (typically US$11 to US$25 per day, depending on location) or pay per use, where actual toll charges plus administrative fees are billed to your card after the rental.

How do I pick up my Avis rental car at Nashville International Airport (BNA) in Tennessee?

When you arrive at Nashville International Airport (BNA) in Tennessee, your Avis pickup process depends on whether you are a standard customer or an Avis Preferred member.

  • Standard customers: proceed inside the terminal to the Avis car rental desk to complete your paperwork and receive your keys.
  • Avis Preferred members: follow signs to ground transportation on level one, exit the front of the terminal, take the covered walkway across the street to the second level of the parking garage, and follow signs to the Avis Parking Area to go directly to your vehicle.
  • Avis app users: you can select your vehicle through the app and skip the counter entirely.

The Avis counter at BNA is open Monday through Friday from 6:00 AM to 2:00 AM, and Saturday through Sunday from 6:00 AM to 1:00 AM. A 24-hour after-hours key drop is available in the return area if you need to return the vehicle outside operating hours.

Bring your booking confirmation, a valid driver's license, and a physical major credit card in the main driver's name for the security deposit hold.

How do I pick up my Avis rental car at Knoxville McGhee Tyson Airport (TYS) in Tennessee?

At Knoxville McGhee Tyson Airport (TYS) in Tennessee, the Avis pickup process varies depending on the time of day.

  • During peak times: an Avis representative will meet you at the garage booth with your preprinted rental agreement and keys.
  • During non-peak times: proceed to the baggage claim area on the lower level of the terminal, where the rental counters are located directly across from baggage claim.
  • Avis Preferred members: identify yourself at the rental counter to receive your preprinted agreement and keys without waiting in the standard queue.

The Avis location at TYS is open Monday through Friday from 6:00 AM to midnight, and Saturday through Sunday from 8:00 AM to midnight. The pickup and return address is 2055 Alcoa Highway, Alcoa, TN 37701.

For after-hours returns at this Tennessee Avis location, note the mileage, fuel level, and time on your rental document, then lock the vehicle and deposit the keys and rental documents in the drop box at the rental counter. The vehicle will be checked in the next business day.

Can I get Tolls Cashback on my Avis rental in Tennessee if there are no local tolls?

Yes, Tolls Cashback is included on all Hola Car Rentals bookings, including Avis rentals in Tennessee, and it applies even if you drive into neighboring states with toll roads during your trip.

Since Tennessee itself has no toll roads, you would only accumulate toll charges if your Avis itinerary takes you into states such as Georgia, North Carolina, or others that do have tolls. Any tolls you pay during the rental period are eligible for reimbursement of up to 5% of your total booking value.

To claim your cashback after returning your Avis vehicle in Tennessee, email [email protected] within 30 days of return and include:

  • Your Hola Car Rentals reservation confirmation
  • A copy of the rental agreement signed at the Avis counter
  • A receipt or statement showing the toll 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. Late submissions received after 30 days are not accepted.

What documents do I need to pick up my Avis rental car in Tennessee?

To pick up your Avis rental car in Tennessee, you must present the following physical documents at the counter:

  • A valid, original driver's license in the main driver's name (not a digital copy).
  • A physical major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, used for the security deposit hold. Debit and prepaid cards are not accepted.
  • A passport or valid government-issued photo ID.
  • Your booking confirmation or printed voucher.
  • Round-trip flight or cruise tickets (required for international visitors).
  • An International Driving Permit (IDP) if your license uses a non-Latin alphabet such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic. An IDP is a translation only and must be carried alongside your original license.

All documents must be physical originals. Digital versions shown on a phone or tablet will not be accepted at the Avis counter in Tennessee.

If your license is in English or issued by an EU/EEA country, an IDP is generally not required, though it is recommended as a precaution. Confirm requirements on your booking confirmation before travel.

Does Avis in Tennessee charge a young driver surcharge for renters under 25?

Yes, Avis in Tennessee applies a young-driver surcharge for renters between the ages of 21 and 24. The standard fee is US$13 per rental day plus applicable taxes, with a maximum charge of US$65 plus taxes for the rental period.

Drivers must be at least 21 years old to rent from Avis in Tennessee. Renters aged 21 to 24 are also restricted from booking certain vehicle classes, including full-size sedans, SUVs, minivans, vans, convertibles, luxury, and premium categories. Economy, compact, medium sedan, standard sedan, compact SUV, and medium SUV classes are generally available to younger renters.

One important exception applies: if you are a main driver aged 21 to 24 and a citizen or resident of Latin America or the Caribbean, certain Hola Car Rentals rates fulfilled by Avis in Tennessee may waive the underage fee. This waiver must be explicitly shown on your booking confirmation to apply at the counter. It covers the main driver only and does not extend to additional drivers aged 21 to 24.

All other standard requirements still apply regardless of age, including a valid driver's license and a physical major credit card for the deposit.

What is the security deposit amount for an Avis rental in Tennessee?

When you pick up your Avis rental in Tennessee, a temporary authorization hold will be placed on your credit card. For standard vehicle classes in the United States, this hold is typically around US$300 to US$400, though the exact amount varies by location, vehicle class, and season.

This is not a charge. It is a temporary authorization that reduces your available credit until the rental is closed and your bank releases the hold, which can take up to 15 business days after return.

  • You must present a physical major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card. Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted for the deposit at the Avis counter in Tennessee.
  • Ensure your card has sufficient available credit to cover both the hold and any expected charges.
  • Bringing a backup credit card in your name is strongly recommended in case your primary card is declined.

If you prepaid your Avis booking online, you are still required to present a physical credit card at the Tennessee counter for the security hold. Notify your bank of your travel plans in advance to prevent fraud blocks on the authorization.

Does Avis in Tennessee include insurance coverage in the rental rate?

Avis rentals in Tennessee do not automatically include full insurance coverage in every rate. What is included depends on the specific rate plan you selected when booking through Hola Car Rentals.

The two main types of coverage to understand are:

  • Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW): reduces your financial liability for damage to the Avis vehicle from a collision, theft, or vandalism. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation explicitly states zero deductible. CDW/LDW does not cover damage to third parties.
  • Third-Party Liability (LIS/ALI/SLI): covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to other people or vehicles while driving your Avis rental in Tennessee. Some U.S. states require a minimum level of liability, but not all do. Adding supplemental liability coverage up to US$300,000 is strongly recommended.

Review your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation carefully to see which coverages are listed as included and which are optional add-ons available at the Avis counter in Tennessee. At pickup, verify that the rental agreement matches your confirmation before signing.

Can I return my Avis rental car after hours at Tennessee airports?

Yes, after-hours returns are available at Avis locations in Tennessee's major airports, with specific procedures at each site.

At Nashville International Airport (BNA), the Avis Tennessee location offers 24-hour drop-off. To return after hours, lock the vehicle, check it for personal belongings, and place the keys in the after-hours key drop box located in the return area. The vehicle will be checked in when the location opens the next business day, and you remain responsible for the vehicle until satisfactory check-in is completed.

At Knoxville McGhee Tyson Airport (TYS), the after-hours return process for this Avis Tennessee location requires you to:

  • Note the mileage, fuel level, and return time on your rental document.
  • Provide an email address on the document if you want a receipt sent to you.
  • Lock the vehicle and deposit both the keys and the rental documents in the drop box at the rental counter.

As with Nashville, the vehicle is checked in the next business day and you remain responsible until that check-in is complete. Always refuel before returning to avoid fuel charges under the Full-to-Full policy.

What is the fuel policy for Avis rentals in Tennessee?

Avis rentals in Tennessee 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 fees on your Tennessee Avis rental:

  • At pickup, confirm the fuel level with the agent and ensure the starting level is recorded on the rental agreement. Take a photo of the dashboard showing the gauge and odometer.
  • During the rental, use the correct fuel type as specified in the vehicle documentation.
  • Before returning, refuel within approximately 10 miles or 15 km of the return location so the gauge does not drop below full before you arrive.
  • Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address.

If you return the Avis vehicle in Tennessee 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 retail pump price, plus a refueling service fee. For after-hours returns at Tennessee airports, leave the fuel receipt in the key drop envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge as evidence.

Can I add an additional driver to my Avis rental in Tennessee?

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Avis rental in Tennessee, either as an included benefit or for a fee depending on your rate.

If your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation explicitly states that an additional driver is included, the first extra driver is added at no cost. If it is not included, Avis in Tennessee charges US$13 per rental day plus taxes, with a maximum of US$65 plus taxes for the rental period.

Requirements for adding an additional driver at the Avis counter in Tennessee:

  • The additional driver must be physically present at pickup to show a valid driver's license and sign the rental agreement.
  • For Avis in Tennessee, additional drivers must generally be at least 25 years old at the time of pickup.
  • The additional driver must meet the same document requirements as the main driver, including an IDP if their license uses a non-Latin alphabet.

Only drivers named on the rental agreement are covered by protections such as CDW/LDW and liability coverage. Anyone who drives the Avis vehicle in Tennessee without being listed on the contract may void those coverages entirely.
