Picture this evening arrival: you land at 8:10 p.m., your friend at 8:40, and the garage closes at 10. To avoid a scramble, secure the pickup window early. Compare car rental options and check car hire pages if the plan shifts to a different airport. Hola Car Rentals confirms hours, driver rules, and what each person must bring, so handovers are smooth and fully documented.
Keep direct station references handy for quick questions about hours, deposits, or driver ID checks: Enterprise at LAX, Hertz in Orlando, and Avis in Miami.
Add the right people at pickup
Only named drivers may operate the vehicle. The booker can add one or more drivers who meet age and license rules; most stations need the additional driver present with an original license. Arriving together keeps the process fast, but if schedules differ, have the other driver meet at the counter before leaving the garage.
Documents and eligibility
Bring physical licenses for every driver and the payment card in the booker’s name. If a license is not in English, carry an accepted translation where required by local rules. Check expiration dates, and make sure the name on the payment card matches the primary renter on the agreement.
Fees—how to keep them predictable
Some locations waive spouse or domestic‑partner charges; others bill a daily fee per added person. Hola Car Rentals shows these costs upfront and offers Free Cancellation up to 48 hours before pickup. If a driver joins mid‑trip, most suppliers require a branch visit to add them before they take the wheel.
Best practice for shared trips
List all drivers at pickup. Asking an unlisted person to ‘just move the vehicle’ risks administrative fees and could jeopardize protection. If plans change—say, a colleague now needs to share driving—stop by a branch to update the agreement before they drive.
- Bring original, physical licenses for all drivers.
- Present the payment card in the booker’s name.
- Add every driver at pickup—don’t wait until later.
Wherever you’re headed, reserve with Hola Car Rentals for transparent pricing, flexible changes up to 48 hours before pickup, and protection options that fit your itinerary.
