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

When you arrive at San Antonio International Airport (SAT), the Hertz counter is not inside the terminal. From the baggage claim area on the lower level of Terminal A or B, follow the ground transportation signs and board the shared shuttle bus to the Consolidated Rental Car Facility (CONRAC) at 9559 Airport Blvd., San Antonio, TX 78216.

The CONRAC consolidates all rental car brands, including Hertz, into a single off-site building, so there is only one shuttle stop to look for. The shuttle ride typically takes 5 to 15 minutes. Once at the facility, proceed to the Hertz counter to complete check-in and vehicle inspection.

The Hertz airport counter in San Antonio is open daily from 6:00 AM to midnight, making it suitable for most flight arrival times. Allow 30 to 60 minutes from landing to driving away, accounting for baggage claim, the shuttle ride, and counter processing.

Hertz operates two main locations in San Antonio with very different hours, so choosing the right one matters depending on your arrival time.

• San Antonio International Airport (SAT), 9559 Airport Blvd.: open daily 6:00 AM to midnight, seven days a week.
• Downtown San Antonio, 101 Bowie St.: open Monday through Friday 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM, closed Saturday and Sunday.

If you are arriving on a weekend, in the early morning, or late at night, the Hertz airport location in San Antonio is the only practical option. The downtown location has no after-hours key drop mentioned, so plan your return accordingly.

Hertz also has additional San Antonio locations, such as 11723 I-35 Frontage Rd (open Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM, Saturday 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM), which may suit renters not arriving by air. Always confirm hours on your booking confirmation before heading to any location.

Yes, toll roads exist in and around San Antonio, and they are entirely cashless. There are no cash booths; overhead gantries read either a transponder or your license plate automatically.

When you pick up your Hertz rental in San Antonio, you have two options for handling tolls:

• Unlimited toll package: a flat daily fee (typically US$11 to US$25 per rental day) that covers all toll usage during your rental period.
• Pay per use: if you decline the package, Hertz will bill the actual toll amounts plus administrative or processing fees to your credit card after the rental ends. These charges can appear days or even weeks after you return the car.

Estimated toll costs for driving around San Antonio range from approximately US$2 to US$10 per day, depending on which routes you use. If you plan to drive to other Texas metros such as Austin, Houston, or Dallas, toll costs increase significantly.

If you use your own personal transponder, inform the Hertz counter agent in San Antonio at pickup so they can deactivate the vehicle's default device and prevent duplicate charges.

Yes, all bookings made through Hola Car Rentals include Tolls Cashback, which applies to your Hertz rental in San Antonio and any toll roads you use throughout Texas.

The benefit reimburses the lesser of the total tolls you paid or up to 5% of your total booking value. For example, if your booking total is US$500, the maximum cashback is US$25.

To claim your cashback after returning your Hertz vehicle in San Antonio:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of vehicle return.
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - HOLA followed by your confirmation number.
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals reservation confirmation, the signed rental agreement from Hertz, and a toll receipt or statement showing charges paid during your rental.

Refunds are issued to the original payment method and typically process within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Late submissions received after 30 days are not accepted, so file your claim promptly after returning the car.

When collecting your Hertz rental in San Antonio, you must present physical documents. Digital copies are not accepted at the counter.

• Valid driver's license (original, unexpired, in the main driver's name).
• 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.
• A major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, in the main driver's name, for the security deposit hold. Debit and prepaid cards are not accepted for the deposit.
• Passport or valid government photo ID.
• Booking confirmation or printed voucher if required by your rate.
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets (required for international visitors).

If your license is in English or issued by an EU/EEA country, an IDP is generally not required in San Antonio. However, if your license uses a non-Latin script, an IDP is mandatory. Obtain it in your home country before traveling, as it cannot be issued abroad.

Yes, a major credit card is required to pick up your Hertz rental in San Antonio. The card must be in the main driver's name with the driver's name physically printed on the card, and it must be presented in person at the counter.

At pickup, Hertz will place a temporary authorization hold on your card. For standard vehicles in the United States, this hold is typically around US$300 to US$400, though the exact amount depends on the vehicle class and location. This hold reduces your available credit until it is released after you return the car, which can take up to 15 business days depending on your bank.

• Debit cards are not accepted for the security deposit.
• Prepaid or virtual cards are not accepted.
• The card must belong to the main driver, not a third party.

Even if you prepaid your booking online, you must still present a physical credit card at the Hertz counter in San Antonio. Bringing a backup credit card in your name is strongly recommended in case your primary card is declined.

The minimum age to rent a car with Hertz in San Antonio without additional surcharges is 25. Drivers aged 21 to 24 can rent but will be charged a daily young-renter surcharge, and most vehicle classes are restricted to renters aged 25 and older.

Vehicle classes typically restricted to 25 and older include full-size sedans, full-size SUVs, minivans, vans, convertibles, luxury, and premium categories. Younger renters in San Antonio are generally limited to economy, compact, and intermediate vehicles.

For Hertz specifically, the additional driver fee for drivers aged 21 to 24 is US$13.50 per rental day plus taxes, with a maximum charge of US$189 plus taxes. This applies at the San Antonio counter when adding a young driver to the agreement.

Drivers under 21 cannot rent with Hertz in San Antonio. Texas does not have the same exceptions as New York or Michigan, where 18-year-olds may rent. Always confirm your eligibility and vehicle class availability before booking.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Hertz rental in San Antonio, but the process must be completed in person at the counter during pickup.

The additional driver must be physically present at the Hertz location in San Antonio with their valid driver's license and, if applicable, an International Driving Permit. Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement.

Regarding fees for Hertz in San Antonio:

• If your booking confirmation states the additional driver is included, no fee applies at the counter.
• If not included, Hertz charges US$13.50 per rental day plus taxes, with a maximum of US$189 plus taxes for the rental period.

The additional driver must meet the same minimum age requirements as the main driver. Drivers aged 21 to 24 may be subject to a young-renter surcharge on top of the additional driver fee. Only drivers listed on the Hertz rental agreement in San Antonio are covered by the vehicle's protections, so never allow an unlisted person to drive the car.

Most bookings made through Hola Car Rentals include travel assistance provided by Terrawind Global Protection, which can be useful if something goes wrong during your Hertz rental in San Antonio, such as a medical emergency or a breakdown on a Texas highway far from the city.

Core benefits typically include:

• Travel and medical coverage for up to 5 passengers.
• Legal assistance in case of an accident.
• Compensation for luggage lost by the airline.
• Flight cancellation insurance.

This coverage applies only to non-North American customers. Residents of the United States and Canada do not qualify for this benefit.

To reach assistance 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, call +1 888 980 9992 (toll-free) or contact WhatsApp at +1 208 910 1001. Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call.

Note that this travel assistance does not cover damage to the Hertz rental vehicle itself (that is handled by CDW/LDW) or third-party liability (handled by LIS/SLI). Check your booking confirmation for the exact terms and coverage limits that apply to your San Antonio rental.

Yes, one-way rentals with Hertz are possible in San Antonio, but a drop-off fee may apply depending on your return location.

Common patterns for one-way rentals from San Antonio:

• San Antonio airport to downtown San Antonio (or vice versa): often no drop-off fee.
• San Antonio to another Texas city such as Austin, Houston, or Dallas: a drop-off fee typically applies and varies by distance and vehicle class.
• San Antonio to a location in another state: a drop-off fee usually applies and can be higher for long-distance routes.

The drop-off fee is not included in any rate plan and cannot be prepaid. It will appear under the "To pay at destination" section during the booking process on the Hola Car Rentals website. Review your booking confirmation to confirm whether a fee applies to your specific route.

Cross-border one-way rentals (for example, returning the Hertz vehicle outside the United States) may be restricted or require special authorization. Always confirm cross-border rules with Hertz before driving across any international border from San Antonio.

Hertz rentals in San Antonio follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy by default. This means you receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.

To avoid fuel charges on your San Antonio Hertz 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.
• Refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location so the tank does not drop below full before you arrive.
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address.

If you return the Hertz vehicle in San Antonio 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.

The Hertz counter in San Antonio may offer an optional prepaid fuel plan at pickup. If you accept it, you pay for a full tank upfront and do not need to refuel before return, but unused fuel is generally non-refundable. The Full-to-Full policy is usually the better value if you plan to refuel near the return location.

The insurance coverages included in your Hertz rental in San Antonio depend on the rate plan selected when booking through Hola Car Rentals. It is important to understand what each type of coverage does and does not protect.

• Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW): reduces your financial liability for damage to the Hertz rental vehicle itself from a collision, theft, or vandalism. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation states zero deductible. This does not cover damage you cause to other vehicles or people.
• Third-Party Liability (LIS/SLI/ALI): covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to others while driving. In Texas, not all rental locations are required to include state-minimum liability by law, so confirm whether this is included or available as an add-on for your San Antonio booking.

CDW/LDW does not cover tires, undercarriage, roof damage, or personal belongings. Only drivers listed on the Hertz rental agreement in San Antonio are covered by any included protections.

Review your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation carefully to see exactly which coverages are included in your rate before arriving at the Hertz counter in San Antonio.

When returning your Hertz rental at San Antonio International Airport, drive back to the CONRAC facility at 9559 Airport Blvd., San Antonio, TX 78216, the same Consolidated Rental Car Facility where you picked up the vehicle.

Steps for a smooth return:

• Refuel within approximately 10 miles of the CONRAC to ensure the tank is full when you arrive. Keep your fuel receipt.
• Follow the Hertz return lane signs inside the facility and park in the designated return area.
• A Hertz agent will inspect the vehicle and close out your contract. Keep a copy of the final receipt.
• After completing the return, board the shuttle from the CONRAC back to your terminal at San Antonio International Airport.

The Hertz airport counter in San Antonio is open daily until midnight. If you anticipate returning outside operating hours, contact Hertz in advance to confirm any after-hours key drop procedures, as specific instructions are not always posted at the facility.

After return, monitor your credit card statement. Any outstanding toll charges from Texas cashless roads may be billed by Hertz days or weeks after the rental ends. If you believe a post-rental charge is incorrect, contact Hola Car Rentals support with your rental agreement and final receipt.
