Your SUV rental in Alaska is picked up at the ANC Rental Car Center, a consolidated facility served by all major brands including Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, National, and Thrifty. To reach the center, take the shuttle from the South Terminal at Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport.

Counter hours vary by brand:

• Alamo and National: 5:30 a.m. to 2:30 a.m.
• Avis: 5:00 a.m. to 1:30 a.m.
• Budget, Dollar, and Thrifty: 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m.
• Hertz: 5:30 a.m. to 2:00 a.m.
• Enterprise: 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. in winter, 6:00 a.m. to midnight in summer

If your flight arrives outside these windows, after-hours key drop boxes are available at the ANC Rental Car Center. For Avis and Budget, lock the SUV and drop the keys in the return area box; the vehicle is checked in the following day. Confirm after-hours procedures with your specific brand before arrival.

Alaska has almost no toll roads, but there is one important exception for SUV renters: the Anton Anderson Memorial Tunnel, also known as the Whittier Tunnel, which connects Whittier to Highway 1 near Anchorage.

Key facts about this toll for your Alaska SUV rental:

• It is the longest highway tunnel in North America at 2.5 miles
• The toll is cash-only at a manned booth, no electronic payment is accepted
• The standard cost for a 2-axle vehicle is US$13; larger vehicles pay more based on axles and weight
• No E-ZPass, SunPass, or other electronic transponder systems operate in Alaska

Because the Whittier Tunnel is cash-only, the toll transponder programs offered by rental brands such as PlatePass or e-Toll do not activate here and their daily fees (typically US$3.95 to US$25.99) do not apply to this tunnel. Simply pay cash at the booth before entering. There are no congestion charges or emissions zones anywhere in Alaska.

Several roads in Alaska are commonly restricted by rental companies for SUV rentals, even when you are driving a capable 4x4 or AWD vehicle. These restrictions exist to protect the vehicle from damage on unpaved or remote routes.

Roads frequently listed as off-limits in Alaska SUV rental agreements include:

• Dalton Highway
• Dempster Highway
• Denali Highway
• Elliott Highway
• Steese Highway
• Taylor Highway
• McCarthy Road
• Nabesna Road

Always review your rental agreement carefully before driving your Alaska SUV on any gravel or unpaved road. Violating road restrictions can void your Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW), leaving you personally liable for any damage to the vehicle. If off-road or remote driving is part of your plans, confirm with the rental counter which routes are permitted for your specific SUV before departing.

Additionally, cross-border travel from Alaska into Canada is prohibited by most rental companies operating in the state.

Yes, all Hola Car Rentals bookings include Tolls Cashback, and it applies to SUV rentals in Alaska as well.

Alaska has only one tolled facility, the Whittier Tunnel near Anchorage, where the toll is US$13 cash for a standard vehicle. If you pay that toll during your Alaska SUV rental, you can claim up to 5% of your total booking value back.

To claim your Tolls Cashback:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of returning your SUV
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - HOLA followed by your confirmation number
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals reservation confirmation, the signed rental agreement, and a receipt showing the toll payment

The refund is issued to the same payment method used for your booking and typically processes within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Late submissions received after 30 days are not accepted. Keep your cash receipt from the Whittier Tunnel booth as proof of payment for your Alaska SUV rental claim.

To pick up your SUV rental in Alaska, you must present the following physical documents at the counter:

• A valid, original driver's license in the main driver's name
• A physical major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, used for the security deposit hold
• A passport or valid government photo ID
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher if required
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets if you are visiting from abroad

If your driver's license is not in English and does not use a Latin alphabet (for example, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script), an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory alongside your original license. For licenses in English or using a Latin alphabet, an IDP is recommended but not strictly required.

All documents must be physical originals. Digital copies shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted at any Alaska SUV rental counter. Debit cards and prepaid cards are not accepted for the security deposit hold; only a major credit card qualifies.

Yes, an AWD or 4WD SUV is strongly recommended for driving in Alaska, particularly outside of Anchorage city limits.

Alaska's road conditions can include:

• Deep potholes and uneven pavement on main highways
• Gravel and unpaved surfaces on secondary routes
• Snow and ice, especially in winter and at higher elevations
• Remote stretches with limited services

SUV models with AWD or 4WD, such as the Toyota RAV4, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Chevrolet Tahoe, or GMC Yukon, offer superior traction, higher ground clearance, and better stability compared to standard sedans on Alaska's varied terrain. These vehicles also provide more cargo space for gear, which is practical on longer drives across the state.

When booking your Alaska SUV rental, explicitly request AWD or 4WD in your reservation, as availability is limited and not guaranteed unless specified. Confirm with the counter agent at pickup that the SUV assigned to you has the drivetrain you need before leaving the ANC Rental Car Center.

Yes, one-way SUV rentals within Alaska are available, but they come with significant additional costs and conditions you should plan for before booking.

For a one-way SUV rental between Anchorage (ANC) and Fairbanks (FAI), typical daily rates are considerably higher than standard round-trip rates:

• Winter season (February to April): approximately US$80 per day for a midsize SUV
• Summer season (May to September): approximately US$200 per day for a midsize SUV
• A separate drop-off fee also applies on top of the daily rate

For one-way returns, SUVs picked up at Fairbanks (FAI) are typically returned to the ANC South Terminal rather than the main Rental Car Center. After-hours key drop is available for one-way returns through providers such as Alaska 4x4 Rentals.

The drop-off fee for your Alaska SUV rental will be shown under the "To pay at destination" section during the Hola Car Rentals booking process. Cross-border one-way rentals from Alaska into Canada are not permitted by most partner brands.

When you pick up your SUV rental in Alaska, the rental company will place a temporary authorization hold on your credit card. For standard vehicles in the United States, this hold is typically between US$300 and US$400, though the amount can be higher for full-size or premium SUV categories.

Important things to know about the deposit for your Alaska SUV rental:

• The hold is not a charge; it temporarily reduces your available credit until released after return
• Only a physical major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card is accepted; debit cards and prepaid cards are not allowed
• Your bank controls when the hold is released, which can take up to 15 business days after the rental closes
• Bring a backup credit card in case your primary card is declined

Notify your bank of your travel to Alaska before pickup to prevent fraud blocks on the authorization. The exact hold amount is set by the rental partner desk and may vary by brand, location, and the specific SUV class you are renting.

Yes, most Hola Car Rentals bookings include travel assistance through Terrawind Global Protection, which can be valuable if you experience an emergency during your Alaska SUV rental in a remote area far from urban services.

Coverage typically includes:

• Medical assistance for up to 5 passengers (non-pre-existing conditions)
• Legal assistance in the event of an accident
• Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
• Flight cancellation insurance

This benefit does not cover damage to the SUV itself (that is handled by CDW or LDW) or third-party liability (covered by LIS or SLI). It also does not apply to customers who are residents of the United States or Canada.

If you need assistance during your Alaska SUV rental, contact Terrawind 24 hours a day:

• Phone (toll-free or collect): +1 888 980 9992
• WhatsApp: +1 208 910 1001
• Email: [email protected]

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

In Alaska, as in most U.S. states, the standard minimum age to rent a SUV without additional surcharges is 25. Drivers aged 21 to 24 can rent in Alaska but will be subject to a daily young-renter surcharge, and most SUV classes are restricted to renters aged 25 and older.

Typical young-renter daily surcharges by brand for Alaska SUV rentals:

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

Full-size SUVs, premium SUVs, and large vehicles are generally restricted to renters aged 25 and older. Compact and midsize SUV categories are more commonly available to drivers aged 21 to 24. Renters from Latin America and the Caribbean aged 21 to 24 may qualify for a young-renter fee waiver on eligible Avis or Budget Alaska SUV rentals; check your Hola Car Rentals confirmation to see if this waiver applies to your booking.

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

Steps to follow for your Alaska SUV rental:

• At pickup, check the fuel gauge with the agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on the rental 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 before dropping off the SUV
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address

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

Given that Alaska SUVs consume more fuel than sedans and distances between towns can be long, plan your refueling stops carefully. Ask the counter agent at the ANC Rental Car Center about the nearest fuel stations to the return location before you depart.

Third-party liability coverage for your Alaska SUV rental depends on the rate plan you selected and the specific rental partner fulfilling your booking. Not all U.S. states require rental companies to include state-minimum liability coverage, so it is important to verify what is included in your confirmation.

LIS, ALI, or SLI (supplemental liability insurance) protects you against bodily injury and property damage you may cause to other people or their property while driving your Alaska SUV. It does not cover damage to the rental vehicle itself, which is handled by CDW or LDW.

To confirm your liability coverage for your Alaska SUV rental:

• Review your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation for any mention of LIS, ALI, or SLI
• At the counter, verify on the rental agreement that liability coverage is active and note the exact limits
• If not included, you can add supplemental liability at the counter

Hola Car Rentals strongly recommends adding Liability Insurance Supplementary (up to US$300,000) to any Alaska SUV rental if it is not already shown as included in your booking.

If you return your Alaska SUV rental after the agreed drop-off time, a grace period of approximately 30 minutes typically applies before extra charges are triggered. However, this grace period is not guaranteed by all brands or locations.

After the grace period expires on your Alaska SUV rental:

• Avis and Budget charge approximately three-quarters of a day's rate for the first period over the grace window
• Additional hours or a full extra day may be billed depending on how late the return occurs
• Some brands may also apply a late fee on top of the extra time charge

To avoid late return charges on your Alaska SUV rental, plan your return with enough time to refuel near the ANC Rental Car Center and account for shuttle travel from the return area to the terminal. If you need more time, contact the rental company directly to extend your rental before the original drop-off time, as extending mid-rental is subject to availability and may reprice your rate.

For after-hours returns at ANC, use the key drop box at the counter or return area. You remain liable for the vehicle until it is checked in the following business day.
