No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your Alamo booking in Dulles 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 Dulles 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 rental facility at Dulles is not inside the terminal. It is located at an off-airport consolidated lot at 23430 Autopilot Dr, Dulles, VA 20166.

To get there after landing, follow these steps:

• Exit baggage claim and proceed to the Ground Transportation area (Terminal B, down the ramp to Doors 2 or 4)
• Board the Alamo shuttle at curbs 2C-2D, which are shared with Enterprise and National
• The shuttle will take you directly to the Autopilot Drive facility

Once at the Alamo lot, you can use a touch-screen kiosk to check in and skip the counter line. The kiosk prints a receipt-sized rental agreement. Take it to your assigned car on the lot, then show the agreement and your driver's license at the exit booth before driving away.

The Alamo facility at Dulles operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so late-night or early-morning arrivals are accommodated without issue.

When collecting your Alamo rental at Dulles, you must present all documents in physical form. 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
• Passport or valid government-issued photo ID
• Physical major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, in the main driver's name, for the security deposit hold
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight tickets (required for visitors traveling internationally)

At the Alamo exit booth at Dulles, you will also be asked to show your rental agreement and driver's license before driving off the lot. Make sure all names match across your license, passport, and credit card to avoid delays at the counter.

Toll roads are common in the area around Dulles, and nearly all of them are fully cashless. There are no cash booths on most facilities. Vehicles are billed electronically, either through a transponder or by license plate camera.

Common toll routes near Dulles include:

• Dulles Toll Road and Dulles Greenway (to and from the airport): approximately US$5.75 to US$6.25 one way
• 495 Express Lanes on the Virginia side of the Beltway: dynamic pricing ranging from US$4 to US$20 depending on traffic and time of day
• I-95 Express Lanes toward Baltimore: approximately US$8 to US$15 total

Your Alamo rental at Dulles will come equipped with an electronic toll device. At pickup you can choose between an unlimited daily toll package (typically US$11 to US$25 per day) or a pay-per-use option, where you are charged the actual toll amount plus a daily administrative fee of approximately US$4.95 to US$5.35 per usage day.

If you drive through a cashless toll without enrolling in a program, Alamo will automatically enroll you in pay-per-use plate billing and charge the toll plus the administrative fee. Toll charges may appear on your card days or even weeks after the rental ends.

Yes, all bookings made through Hola Car Rentals include Tolls Cashback, which lets you recover up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your Alamo rental at Dulles.

Given that the Dulles area has several cashless toll roads, including the Dulles Toll Road and the 495 Express Lanes, this benefit can meaningfully offset your toll costs.

To claim your cashback:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of returning your Alamo vehicle at Dulles
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - HOLA followed by your confirmation number
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals reservation confirmation, the rental agreement signed at pickup, and 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, so keep your toll receipts and submit promptly after your rental ends.

When you pick up your Alamo rental at Dulles, a temporary authorization hold will be placed on your credit card. This is not a charge, but it reduces your available credit until the hold is released after you return the vehicle.

For standard vehicles at Alamo locations in the United States, including Dulles, the typical hold is approximately US$300 to US$400. Higher-value or specialty vehicles may carry a larger hold.

Important things to know about the deposit at Dulles:

• Only a physical, major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card is accepted. Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted for the hold
• The card must be in the main driver's name
• Make sure your card has sufficient available credit to cover the hold plus any expected charges
• After you return the Alamo vehicle, the hold is released, but your bank controls when it appears back on your account, which can take up to 15 business days

Notify your bank of your travel plans before arriving at Dulles to avoid the authorization being flagged as suspicious.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Alamo rental at Dulles, either at no cost if your rate includes it or for a daily fee if it does not.

When the additional driver fee applies at Alamo, the charge is US$15 per day. Check your booking confirmation to see whether your rate already includes one additional driver at no extra cost.

Requirements for adding a driver at the Dulles Alamo counter:

• The additional driver must be physically present at pickup
• They must present a valid driver's license and any required IDP
• They must sign the rental agreement at the counter
• They must meet the minimum age requirements for the rental location

Only drivers listed on the rental agreement are covered by the vehicle's protections such as CDW and liability coverage. If someone not named on the contract drives the Alamo vehicle at Dulles, coverage may be void and additional charges could apply.

If you need to add a driver after pickup, you must visit an Alamo branch in person to update the agreement.

Alamo offers a touch-screen kiosk check-in at the Dulles rental facility on Autopilot Drive, allowing you to skip the rental counter line entirely.

Here is how the process works step by step:

• After arriving at the Alamo lot via the shuttle from curbs 2C-2D at Dulles, proceed to the kiosk area
• Use the touch-screen kiosk to complete your check-in
• The kiosk prints a receipt-sized rental agreement
• Follow the directions to your assigned vehicle on the lot
• At the exit booth, present your printed rental agreement and driver's license to the booth agent before driving away

The Alamo facility at Dulles operates 24 hours a day, so the kiosk is available regardless of your arrival time. This self-service option is particularly useful during peak hours when counter queues may be longer. Keep in mind that even with kiosk check-in, you will still need to present your physical credit card and driver's license at the exit booth.

Returning your Alamo rental at Dulles is straightforward. The return facility is the same consolidated lot on Autopilot Drive where you picked up the vehicle.

Steps for returning your Alamo car at Dulles:

• Follow the rental car return signs directing you to the Autopilot Drive lot
• Drive to the corresponding Alamo return area on the lot and drop off the vehicle
• After completing the return, board the free Alamo shuttle bus from the lot back to the airport terminal

Before returning, refuel within approximately 10 miles of the Dulles return location to comply with the Full-to-Full fuel policy. If you return the vehicle with less fuel than recorded at pickup, Alamo may charge a refueling fee at a rate higher than the pump price, plus a service fee.

Take a photo of the fuel gauge and odometer when you return the car, and keep your final fuel receipt in case any dispute arises. The Alamo facility at Dulles is open 24 hours, so after-hours returns are possible. Follow any key-drop or lot instructions provided in your rental agreement for late-night returns.

Yes, most bookings made through Hola Car Rentals include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection, which can be useful if an unexpected situation arises during your Alamo rental near Dulles.

This benefit is designed for travelers renting abroad and covers up to 5 passengers. It includes:

• Travel insurance with medical coverage for accidents and non-pre-existing illnesses
• Legal assistance in the event of an accident
• Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
• Flight cancellation insurance

This coverage does not apply to residents of the United States or Canada. If you are a US or Canadian resident renting at Dulles, this benefit does not qualify for you.

To reach assistance 24 hours a day if something happens during your Alamo rental:

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

Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call. This coverage does not replace CDW for vehicle damage or LIS for third-party liability.

An International Driving Permit (IDP) is not always mandatory for renting with Alamo at Dulles, but it is strongly recommended in certain situations.

You should bring an IDP if:

• Your driver's license uses a non-Latin alphabet, such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic. In this case, an IDP is required as a translation
• Your license is not in English and not issued by an EU or EEA country

If your license is in English or uses the Latin alphabet, you can generally drive with your foreign license at Dulles without an IDP, though Alamo or local law may still request one.

Important rules about the IDP:

• An IDP is a translation document only. It is not a standalone license and will not be accepted without your original license
• You must obtain your IDP in your home country before traveling. US-based organizations such as AAA do not issue IDPs to non-US license holders
• All documents presented at the Alamo counter at Dulles must be physical originals. Digital copies are not accepted

Yes, drivers under 25 renting with Alamo at Dulles are subject to a young-driver surcharge, and certain vehicle classes are restricted to renters aged 25 and older.

Key rules for under-25 renters at Alamo Dulles:

• The minimum age to rent without a surcharge is 25
• Drivers aged 21 to 24 may rent but will pay an additional daily young-driver fee at the Alamo counter
• Vehicle classes such as full-size, SUVs, luxury, premium, minivans, and convertibles are typically restricted to renters aged 25 and older
• Economy, compact, and intermediate vehicles are generally available to younger renters

Virginia does not have a state law requiring rentals to drivers under 21, so the minimum age at Dulles follows Alamo's standard policy. Renters aged 21 to 24 should Budget for the daily surcharge when planning their trip.

A valid driver's license and a physical major credit card in the main driver's name are still required regardless of age. Debit and prepaid cards are not accepted for the security deposit hold at Dulles.

When picking up your Alamo rental at Dulles, you will have the option to add or confirm insurance coverages. Understanding what each covers helps you avoid paying for protection you already have or going without coverage you need.

The main coverage types available for Alamo rentals at Dulles:

• Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW): reduces your financial liability for damage to the Alamo vehicle from a collision, theft, or vandalism. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation shows zero excess. CDW does not cover damage you cause to other vehicles or people
• Third-Party Liability (LIS or SLI): covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to others while driving the Alamo vehicle near Dulles. Some US states require a minimum liability amount, but not all. Hola Car Rentals strongly recommends adding this coverage

Neither CDW nor LIS covers your personal injuries (that requires PAI) or your belongings (that requires PEC).

Check your booking confirmation to see which coverages are already included in your Alamo rate at Dulles. Only drivers named on the rental agreement are covered by these protections.

Yes, one-way rentals are possible with Alamo at Dulles, but a drop-off fee may apply depending on your return location, the distance involved, and the vehicle class you select.

How one-way fees work for Alamo rentals starting at Dulles:

• Returning to a different airport or city in the same region may carry a drop-off fee
• Long-distance or cross-country one-ways typically carry higher fees
• Cross-border one-ways (for example, driving from Dulles into Canada) may be restricted or require prior approval from Alamo
• Same-city returns, such as picking up at Dulles and dropping off at a nearby downtown location, sometimes carry no fee, but this depends on the specific route

The drop-off fee, if applicable, will be shown during the booking process under the section labeled as charges due at the destination. It cannot be prepaid and is paid directly to Alamo at the counter.

If you need to change your drop-off location after booking, the rental will be repriced and a new or adjusted drop-off fee may apply. Always confirm the fee shown on your booking confirmation matches what Alamo presents at the Dulles counter.
