No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your Alamo booking in Burlington 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 Alamo 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 Alamo counter in Burlington 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 Alamo 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)

The Alamo counter at Burlington International Airport (BTV) is located inside the terminal on the main floor, adjacent to the baggage carousels in the baggage claim area. There is no shuttle or consolidated rental car center to reach, vehicles are on airport property within walking distance of the terminal.

The Alamo counter address is 1200 Airport Dr, South Burlington, VT 05403. Counter hours run daily from approximately 07:00 to 23:59, though hours can vary, so confirm the exact schedule on your booking confirmation before arrival.

Under normal conditions, plan for roughly 15 to 30 minutes from baggage claim to driving away, accounting for counter processing and the short walk to your vehicle.

Vermont has no interstate toll highways, so driving around Burlington and most of the state with your Alamo rental will not involve electronic toll systems like E-ZPass or cashless toll plazas.

The only toll facilities in Vermont are three short, seasonal mountain toll roads that are entirely separate from the main highway network:

• Mt. Equinox Skyline Drive (off VT Route 7A, Manchester): US$20 per car plus US$5 per extra passenger, paid in cash at the gate
• Burke Mountain toll road (off Mountain Road): US$5 per vehicle or US$15 all-day pass, paid in cash
• Mt. Mansfield toll road (off Highway 108, Stowe): US$26 per car plus US$9.50 per extra passenger, credit card only at the gate

Because these are staffed gate facilities with no cameras or plate-based billing, the toll transponder programs offered by Alamo and other rental companies do not apply here. You simply pay at the gate when you arrive. If you drive your Alamo rental into neighboring states such as New York or Massachusetts, standard electronic toll systems will apply in those areas.

When collecting your Alamo rental at Burlington International Airport, bring the following physical documents:

• Your original, unexpired driver's license in the main driver's name
• A major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, for the security deposit hold
• A valid passport or government-issued photo ID
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight tickets or proof of onward travel

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

All documents must be physical originals. Digital copies shown on a phone are not accepted at the Alamo counter in Burlington. Debit and prepaid cards are not accepted for the security deposit hold.

Yes, all Hola Car Rentals bookings include Tolls Cashback, which reimburses up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your Alamo rental in Burlington.

Vermont itself has no highway tolls, but if you drive your Alamo rental from Burlington into neighboring states such as New York or Massachusetts, you may encounter cashless toll roads. Any tolls you pay on those roads are eligible for the cashback claim.

To claim your reimbursement after returning the vehicle, email [email protected] within 30 days with:

• Your Hola Car Rentals reservation confirmation
• A copy of the rental agreement signed at the Alamo counter in Burlington
• A receipt or statement showing the toll charges paid

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

When you pick up your Alamo rental at Burlington International Airport, a temporary authorization hold is placed on your major credit card. For standard vehicles rented in the United States, this hold is typically around US$300 to US$400, though the exact amount can vary depending on the vehicle class, rental duration, and Alamo's current policy at the Burlington location.

The hold is not a charge. It reduces your available credit temporarily and is released after you return the vehicle. Your bank or card issuer controls how quickly the hold disappears from your statement, which can take up to 15 business days.

• Only a major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card is accepted for the deposit
• Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted
• Bring a backup credit card in case your primary card is declined

If you are renting a premium or specialty vehicle at the Burlington Alamo location, the hold amount may be higher. Ask the agent to confirm the authorization amount before they process your card.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Alamo rental in Burlington, either as part of your rate or for a fee paid at the counter.

When the additional driver is not included in your rate, Alamo charges US$15 per day for each extra driver added at the Burlington counter. Check your booking confirmation to see whether your rate already includes one free additional driver.

Requirements for adding a driver at the Alamo counter in Burlington:

• The additional driver must be physically present at pick-up
• They must present a valid driver's license and any required IDP
• They must sign the rental agreement
• They must meet the minimum age requirements for Burlington rentals

Only drivers listed on the rental agreement are covered by the protections included in your booking, such as CDW/LDW and liability coverage. Anyone who drives the Alamo vehicle in Burlington without being named on the contract may void those protections.

Burlington has an unusually strong focus on pedestrian and cyclist infrastructure, which can surprise drivers accustomed to car-centric U.S. cities. When driving your Alamo rental around Burlington, expect narrower lanes, frequent bike lanes, and elevated pedestrian crossings on streets that have been redesigned under the city's complete streets program.

A few specific conditions to be aware of:

• Several streets have been converted to one-way traffic with tightened turn radii, including University Place Street near the university area, where turns from Main Street are deliberately slowed by raised crossings and removed traffic islands
• The Champlain Parkway, partially open as of 2024 and running from I-189 through the South End toward Lakeside and Pine Street, transitions abruptly from highway speed to a 25 mph, two-lane neighborhood road with 11-foot lanes
• Multi-lane roads such as Colchester Avenue have been reduced from four to three lanes with dedicated bike lanes, reallocating space away from cars

Burlington also has approximately 55 private or unaccepted streets that may not be maintained by the city, so navigation apps may route your Alamo rental onto roads with inconsistent surfaces. Stick to mapped public roads when possible.

Yes, most Hola Car Rentals bookings include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection, and this applies to your Alamo rental in Burlington as well. However, this benefit does not apply to customers who are residents of the United States or Canada.

If you are an international visitor driving your Alamo rental in Burlington and experience a medical emergency, a legal issue following an accident, or a flight cancellation, the coverage typically includes:

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

To reach assistance 24 hours a day, 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.

This coverage does not include damage to the Alamo rental vehicle itself (that is handled by CDW/LDW) or third-party liability to others. Check your booking confirmation for the exact terms and limits that apply to your reservation.

Yes, one-way rentals are possible with Alamo from Burlington, allowing you to pick up at Burlington International Airport and return the vehicle in a different city such as Albany, Manchester, Portland, or other locations in the region.

A drop-off fee may apply depending on the route. This fee is set by Alamo and varies based on the destination city, vehicle class, and season. You can see whether a drop-off fee applies during the booking process on the Hola Car Rentals website, listed under the section showing charges due at the destination.

A few things to keep in mind for one-way Alamo rentals from Burlington:

• Availability for one-way trips can be limited, particularly for certain vehicle classes or less common routes
• The drop-off fee cannot be prepaid and is settled at the Alamo counter at pick-up or return
• Changing your return location after booking may reprice the rental and recalculate the drop-off fee

If your confirmation does not show a drop-off fee for your Burlington to destination route, no such fee should be charged at the counter.

Yes, a young driver surcharge applies to renters under 25 years old at the Alamo location in Burlington. The minimum eligible age at Burlington International Airport is 21.

Drivers aged 21 to 24 can rent from Alamo in Burlington but will be charged a daily young-renter surcharge in addition to the base rental rate. This fee is paid at the Alamo counter at pick-up and is not included in the prepaid rate.

Additional restrictions for under-25 renters at the Burlington Alamo location include:

• Most premium, full-size, luxury, and specialty vehicle classes are restricted to renters aged 25 and older
• Economy, compact, and intermediate categories are generally available to younger renters
• All standard document and credit card requirements still apply regardless of age

If you are between 21 and 24 and traveling from Latin America or the Caribbean, check whether your Hola Car Rentals confirmation shows a young-renter fee waiver, as this exception is available on certain Avis and Budget rates but does not apply to Alamo Burlington bookings.

Alamo rentals in Burlington 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 pick-up at the Burlington Alamo counter, verify 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 before leaving the lot.

When returning your Alamo rental in Burlington:

• Refuel within approximately 10 miles of Burlington International Airport so the gauge does not drop before you reach the return lot
• Keep your fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address
• Show the full gauge to the agent at return

If you return the vehicle below the recorded starting level, Alamo may charge for the fuel shortfall at their own refueling rate, which is typically higher than the pump price, plus an administrative service fee. Returning the tank full is always the most cost-effective option.

The insurance and protection options included in your Alamo rental in Burlington depend on the rate plan selected when booking through Hola Car Rentals. Check your booking confirmation for the exact coverages listed.

Common coverages available for Alamo rentals in Burlington include:

• Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW): reduces your financial liability for damage to the Alamo rental vehicle from a collision, theft, or vandalism, subject to any applicable deductible shown on your confirmation
• Third-Party Liability (LIS/ALI/SLI): covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to other people while driving the Alamo rental in Burlington; some U.S. states require a minimum level of liability, but Vermont does not mandate that rental companies include it by default, so confirm whether your rate includes this

CDW/LDW does not cover third-party liability, and LIS/ALI/SLI does not cover damage to the rental vehicle itself. These are separate protections. Neither covers your personal belongings or your own injuries.

At the Alamo counter in Burlington, review the rental agreement carefully and decline any add-ons you did not select during booking.

The Alamo counter at Burlington International Airport operates daily until approximately 23:59, which covers most late-arriving flights. If you need to return your vehicle outside those hours, plan accordingly since Alamo does not have a confirmed after-hours key drop service at the Burlington location based on available information.

General best practices for late or after-hours returns at Burlington:

• Contact the Alamo counter in Burlington directly before your rental begins to confirm whether after-hours return is permitted and what the exact procedure is
• If a key drop is available, lock the vehicle, note the odometer and fuel level, and keep a photo of the dashboard as evidence of the vehicle's condition at return
• Understand that you remain responsible for the vehicle until the counter agent formally checks it in during operating hours

The standard grace period for returns is approximately 30 minutes beyond your scheduled return time. Returning the Alamo vehicle in Burlington beyond that window may result in charges for additional hours or days, plus any applicable late fees. Confirm the exact grace period on your rental agreement at pick-up.
