Inoltre, ogni prenotazione Hola Car Rentals include la garanzia No Extra Charges©.

After landing at Boston Logan (BOS), the Budget counter is located at the off-terminal Rental Car Center (RCC) at 15 Transportation Way, East Boston. You do not walk directly to a counter inside your arrival terminal.

• After collecting your bags, follow signs to Ground Transportation and Shuttle Bus on the lower level of your terminal.
• Board the free blue On-Airport Shuttle (Route 22, 33, or 55) at the curbside stop. Shuttles run every 5 to 6 minutes during the day; Route 55 covers early morning and late evening.
• The ride to the RCC takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes including the wait and the drive.
• At the RCC, follow signs to the Budget counter, complete your paperwork, and proceed to the vehicle bay in the same building.

Budget shares the RCC with other major rental brands. Allow 30 to 60 minutes from baggage claim to driving away, especially during peak hours (7 to 9 AM and 4 to 6 PM). Bring your physical credit card, driver's license, and booking confirmation.

To collect your Budget rental car in Boston, you must present the following physical documents at the RCC counter. Digital copies are not accepted.

• A valid, original driver's license in the main driver's name.
• 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 hold.
• A passport or valid 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 license uses a non-Latin alphabet (for example, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic), an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory alongside your original license. For licenses in other non-English scripts, an IDP is strongly recommended. The IDP is a translation only and cannot be used without the original license.

Budget in Boston also requires that all documents be physical originals. Obtain your IDP in your home country before traveling, as it cannot be issued abroad.

Boston and the wider Massachusetts area use a fully cashless toll system called EZDriveMA. There are no cash booths on toll roads, so your Budget rental vehicle must use an electronic method to pay tolls on roads such as the Massachusetts Turnpike (I-90), the Tobin Memorial Bridge, the Sumner Tunnel, the Ted Williams Tunnel, and the Callahan Tunnel.

At the Budget counter in Boston, you will typically have two options:

• Enroll in a toll program such as TollPass. This charges a daily convenience fee of approximately US$3.95 per day that tolls are used, capped at around US$19.75 per rental period, plus the actual toll amounts billed at undiscounted rates.
• Decline the program. If you drive through a toll without enrolling, Massachusetts uses Pay By Plate MA to invoice the rental company 7 to 10 business days later. Budget then passes the toll charges plus administrative fees to your credit card, typically 4 to 6 weeks after your rental ends.

E-ZPass MA holders receive discounted rates (for example, approximately US$7.45 for a full Massachusetts Turnpike crossing versus US$9.35 for out-of-state E-ZPass). Out-of-state transponders do not qualify for the Massachusetts discount rate. Massachusetts has no congestion charges or emissions zone fees.

Yes, every booking made through Hola Car Rentals includes Tolls Cashback, which reimburses up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your Boston rental.

Boston and Massachusetts use the fully cashless EZDriveMA system, meaning tolls on roads like the Massachusetts Turnpike (I-90), the Tobin Bridge, and the airport tunnels are unavoidable on many routes. The Tolls Cashback benefit helps offset those costs whether you use the Budget TollPass program or pay through Pay By Plate MA.

To claim your cashback after returning your Budget vehicle in Boston:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of returning the car.
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback, followed by your reservation number.
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals confirmation, the signed rental agreement, and a toll receipt or invoice showing charges paid during the rental period.

The refund is issued to the same payment method used for your original booking and typically processes within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Late submissions received after 30 days are not accepted.

Renting a Budget car at Boston Logan Airport (BOS) adds several location-specific fees on top of your base rate. These are charged at the counter and are separate from your prepaid booking total.

• Airport concession recovery fee: typically 10 to 12% of the base rate at Logan Airport.
• Customer facility charge (CFC): approximately US$3.50 to US$7.00 per day at the RCC.
• Massachusetts state sales tax: 6.25% on the rental.
• City of Boston vehicle rental tax: approximately 7%.

Combined, these surcharges can add US$30 to US$50 or more per week on an economy car, making Boston one of the higher-cost rental markets in the United States. If your Hola Car Rentals confirmation shows Taxes and Fees as Included, you should not be billed separately for those items at the Budget counter. If you are charged for something not listed on your confirmation, the No Extra Charges© guarantee may apply.

One way to reduce costs is to consider Budget locations away from Logan Airport, such as in nearby neighborhoods, which avoid the airport concession fees.

Yes, Budget charges a young driver surcharge for renters under 25 years old in Boston. In Massachusetts, the minimum age to rent without a surcharge is 25.

Drivers aged 21 to 24 can rent from Budget in Boston but will pay a daily underage fee. Based on Budget's standard U.S. policy, this is approximately US$13 per rental day plus applicable taxes, with a maximum charge of US$65 plus taxes per rental period.

Drivers under 25 are also restricted from renting certain vehicle classes. Categories such as full-size sedans, SUVs, minivans, convertibles, luxury, and premium vehicles are typically reserved for renters aged 25 and older. Economy, compact, and intermediate classes are generally available to younger renters.

One exception applies to drivers aged 21 to 24 who are citizens or residents of Latin America or the Caribbean: certain Hola Car Rentals rates with Budget waive the underage fee when the waiver is explicitly shown on the booking confirmation and an eligible vehicle category is selected. Check your confirmation or contact support to verify eligibility before arriving at the Boston counter.

Budget rentals in Boston follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.

At pickup at the Boston RCC, check the fuel gauge with the agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on your rental agreement. Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and gauge before leaving the lot.

When returning your Budget car to the RCC at 15 Transportation Way in East Boston, refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location so the tank does not drop below full during the drive back. Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address as proof.

• If you return the car with a full tank: no fuel charges apply.
• If you return below full: Budget may charge a fuel shortfall at their refueling rate, which is typically higher than retail pump prices, plus a refueling service fee.

For after-hours returns at the Boston RCC, leave your fuel receipt in the key drop envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge on your phone. Massachusetts fuel prices average 10 to 15% above the National average due to state excise taxes, so Budget accordingly for refueling during your trip.

Boston has some of the most complex road layouts in the United States, and first-time visitors driving a Budget rental car here should be prepared for several unique challenges.

• Cashless tolls everywhere: the EZDriveMA system covers the Massachusetts Turnpike (I-90), airport tunnels, and the Tobin Bridge. There are no cash booths. Your Budget vehicle handles tolls electronically, either through a TollPass program or Pay By Plate billing.
• Complex interchanges: the Big Dig (Central Artery/Tunnel project) left a legacy of multi-level interchanges at I-90 and I-93 with up to 28 route options at a single junction. These are far more layered than typical U.S. highway merges.
• One-way street grids: areas like Sullivan Square feature maze-like one-way systems with no left-turn lanes, forcing U-turns that can surprise drivers unfamiliar with the layout.
• Aggressive local driving culture: Boston drivers frequently change lanes quickly and execute preemptive left turns into oncoming traffic gaps, a local habit sometimes called the Massachusetts left.
• Stub ramps and missing roads: cancelled highway projects left dead-end ramps and non-existent freeway connections that GPS may still reference.

Allow extra time when navigating central Boston in your Budget rental, especially during morning and evening peak hours.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Budget rental in Boston, either at the time of booking or at the RCC counter when you pick up the vehicle.

The additional driver must be physically present at the Boston Budget counter to show a valid driver's license and sign the rental agreement. Anyone who drives the car without being listed on the agreement is not covered by the rental's protections, including CDW/LDW and liability coverage.

Regarding fees:

• If your Hola Car Rentals confirmation explicitly states Additional Driver Included or Additional Driver Free of Charge, the first extra driver is covered at no extra cost.
• If not included, Budget charges approximately US$13 per rental day plus taxes, with a maximum of US$65 plus taxes per rental period.
• For Budget in Boston, additional drivers must generally be at least 25 years old at pickup.

If the additional driver's license uses a non-Latin alphabet (Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Cyrillic), they must also present an International Driving Permit alongside their original license. Check your confirmation before arriving at the Boston counter to confirm whether the additional driver fee is included in your rate.

When you pick up your Budget rental car in Boston, the counter will place a temporary authorization hold on your credit card. This is not a charge but it reduces your available credit until the rental is closed and your bank releases the hold.

For standard vehicle classes at U.S. locations including Boston, typical holds range from approximately US$300 to US$400 on a major credit card. Premium or specialty vehicles may carry higher holds. The exact amount is set by Budget at the counter and may vary by vehicle class, rental duration, and season.

• Only a physical, major credit card in the main driver's name with the driver's name printed on the card is accepted for the deposit. Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted.
• Ensure your card has sufficient available credit to cover the hold plus any expected charges during the rental.
• Notify your bank of your travel to Boston to prevent fraud blocks on the in-person authorization.

After you return the Budget vehicle at the Boston RCC, the hold is released. Your bank or card issuer controls when the credit reappears on your account, which can take up to 15 business days. Bring a backup credit card in your name in case your primary card is declined.

The insurance and protection coverage included in your Budget rental in Boston depends on the rate plan selected when booking through Hola Car Rentals. Check your confirmation carefully before arriving at the Boston counter.

The two main protections to look for are:

• Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW): reduces your financial liability for damage to the Budget rental vehicle from a collision, theft, or vandalism. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation states zero deductible. CDW/LDW does not cover damage you cause to other vehicles or people.
• Third-Party Liability (LIS/ALI/SLI): covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to others while driving the Budget car in Boston. Some U.S. states require a minimum level of liability, but not all do. Hola Car Rentals strongly recommends adding supplemental liability coverage.

Neither CDW/LDW nor LIS covers your personal injuries (that requires PAI) or your belongings (that requires PEC). At the Boston Budget counter, review the rental agreement to confirm which protections are active before signing. Do not assume coverage is included unless it is explicitly listed on your Hola Car Rentals confirmation.

Yes, most Hola Car Rentals bookings include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection, and this applies to Budget rentals in Boston as well. However, this benefit is not available to residents of the United States or Canada.

For eligible customers, the travel assistance coverage typically includes:

• Medical coverage for up to 5 passengers during the trip.
• Legal assistance in the event of a road accident, which can be particularly valuable given Boston's complex highway interchanges and aggressive local driving conditions.
• Compensation for luggage lost by the airline.
• Flight cancellation insurance.

If you experience a medical emergency or accident while driving your Budget rental on Boston roads such as I-93 or the Massachusetts Turnpike, contact the assistance line immediately before incurring expenses, as some reimbursements require prior authorization.

• Phone (24/7, toll-free): +1 888 980 9992
• WhatsApp: +1 208 910 1001
• Email: [email protected]

Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call. Check your booking confirmation for the exact coverage limits and terms that apply to your specific reservation.

Returning your Budget rental car at Boston Logan Airport is straightforward. The drop-off location is the same Rental Car Center (RCC) where you picked up the vehicle, at 15 Transportation Way, East Boston, MA 02128.

• Follow signs for Boston Logan Airport and then for the Rental Car Center as you approach the airport area.
• Drive directly into the RCC and follow Budget return lane signage inside the facility.
• A Budget agent will inspect the vehicle and close your contract. Keep your final receipt.
• After drop-off, take the free On-Airport Shuttle (Routes 22, 33, or 55) back to your departure terminal on the lower level.

Before returning, refuel within approximately 10 miles of the RCC to comply with the Full-to-Full fuel policy. Keep your fuel receipt as proof. If you return below full, Budget may charge a refueling fee at rates higher than retail pump prices.

For after-hours returns at the Boston RCC, key drop facilities are typically available. Follow the specific instructions on your Budget rental agreement, leave your fuel receipt in the key envelope, and photograph the fuel gauge and odometer before leaving the vehicle. Any outstanding charges, including tolls processed through EZDriveMA Pay By Plate, may appear on your card several weeks after the rental ends.
