Will I face unexpected charges at the counter when I rent a car at Kansas City Airport through Hola Car Rentals?
No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your booking at Kansas City Airport 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 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 counter at Kansas City Airport 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 the rental partner 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)
How do I get from the Kansas City Airport terminal to the rental car counter?
At Kansas City Airport, all major rental brands operate from a single Consolidated Rental Car Facility (CRCF). After collecting your luggage, exit the baggage claim area and proceed to the Rent-A-Car Shuttle Bus stop at the center median of the terminal.
The free gray and black rental car shuttle runs approximately every 20 to 30 minutes and takes about 5 to 10 minutes to reach the facility, located at 1 International Square, Kansas City, MO 64153. Once you arrive, take the escalator or elevator up one floor to reach the rental counters.
The walking distance from the counter to your vehicle ranges from 50 to 400 feet depending on where your car is parked. The facility operates daily from 5:00 AM to 11:59 PM.
Which rental car companies are available at Kansas City Airport?
At Kansas City Airport, all major rental car brands are located under one roof at the Consolidated Rental Car Facility (CRCF). The brands available include Enterprise, Budget, Avis, National, Alamo, and Sixt, among others.
Because all brands share the same facility, there is no need to wait for individual brand shuttles. You simply take the shared gray and black shuttle from the terminal median to the CRCF, then go to your specific brand's counter on the upper floor.
Your booking confirmation will show the operating brand for your reservation. Match that name to the signage at the Kansas City Airport facility to find your counter quickly.
What are the rental counter hours at Kansas City Airport?
The Consolidated Rental Car Facility at Kansas City Airport operates daily from 5:00 AM to 11:59 PM. Pick-up service is not available outside these hours, so if your flight arrives after midnight, plan accordingly.
After-hours vehicle returns are available. To return your car outside operating hours at Kansas City Airport, park and lock the vehicle, remove all personal belongings, and drop your keys in the designated key drop box at your rental brand's kiosk in the returns area under the canopy. Place your completed rental contract with the keys in the drop box.
If your flight is delayed by less than 24 hours, the rental company will hold your reservation. Delays beyond 24 hours may require you to contact support to adjust your booking.
Are there toll roads near Kansas City Airport I should know about?
Missouri has only one toll facility statewide: the Lake of the Ozarks Community Bridge on State Highway MM. This bridge is the only toll you may encounter when driving from Kansas City Airport toward that region.
A few important details about this toll:
- Payment is cash only. No electronic transponders, E-ZPass, or cashless options are accepted.
- Standard passenger vehicles (2-axle rental cars) pay US$3.00 during summer months (May through September) and US$2.00 at other times.
- You cannot cross without paying cash at the booth.
Because Missouri roads are almost entirely toll-free, the optional toll transponder programs offered by rental companies at Kansas City Airport (such as e-Toll or TollPass, typically US$11 to US$25 per day) are generally not necessary for most trips. If you do pay the Lake of the Ozarks toll, you can claim Hola Car Rentals Tolls Cashback of up to 5% of your total booking value by emailing [email protected] within 30 days of returning the vehicle.
What documents do I need to pick up my rental car at Kansas City Airport?
To collect your rental car at Kansas City Airport, you must 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 (required for international visitors).
- Your booking confirmation or printed voucher.
- Round-trip flight tickets or travel itinerary showing your return date.
If your driver's license uses a non-Latin alphabet (such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic), you must also carry an International Driving Permit (IDP) as a translation. The IDP is not a standalone document and must be presented together with your original license.
All documents must be physical originals. Digital copies shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted at the Kansas City Airport rental counter.
Do I need an International Driving Permit to rent a car at Kansas City Airport?
An International Driving Permit (IDP) is not always required to rent a car at Kansas City Airport, but it is strongly recommended in certain situations.
An IDP is mandatory if your driver's license uses a non-Latin alphabet, such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic. In that case, you must present both your original license and the IDP together at the Kansas City Airport counter.
If your license is in English or uses the Latin alphabet, an IDP is not required but may still be useful as a translation aid. Note that an IDP is not a standalone license and will not be accepted without your original license.
Obtain your IDP in your home country before traveling, as U.S. issuers such as AAA do not issue IDPs to non-U.S. license holders.
Is a credit card required to rent a car at Kansas City Airport?
Yes, a major credit card is required to rent a car at Kansas City Airport. The card must be a physical card with the main driver's name printed on it and must have sufficient available credit to cover the security deposit hold.
Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual or single-use card numbers are not accepted for the security deposit at the Kansas City Airport counter. Even if you prepaid your booking online, you must still present a physical credit card at pick-up.
Typical security deposit holds in the United States range from US$300 to US$400 for standard vehicles, though the exact amount varies by rental brand, vehicle class, and location. The hold is a temporary authorization, not a charge, and is released after you return the vehicle. Your bank controls how quickly the hold disappears, which can take up to 15 business days.
Bring a backup credit card in your name in case your primary card is declined.
What extra fees and taxes should I expect when renting at Kansas City Airport?
When picking up a rental car at Kansas City Airport, the base rate shown online is typically increased by several mandatory local fees and taxes. These commonly include:
- Airport Concession Recovery Fee (ACRF): typically 10 to 12% of the base rate, applied at most U.S. airport locations including Kansas City Airport.
- Customer Facility Charge (CFC): approximately US$4.50 to US$5.00 per rental day, covering the cost of the Consolidated Rental Car Facility.
- Kansas City municipal rental car tax and Missouri state fees: combined, these can add another 7 to 8% or more.
In total, fees and taxes at Kansas City Airport can add 25 to 35% on top of the base rate. If your booking confirmation shows Taxes and Fees as Included, you should not be billed separately for those items at the counter. If you are charged for something not listed on your confirmation, the No Extra Charges© guarantee may apply.
How does the Tolls Cashback benefit work for rentals at Kansas City Airport?
All Hola Car Rentals bookings, including those picked up at Kansas City Airport, include Tolls Cashback of up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your rental.
Missouri has very few toll roads, with the only statewide toll being the Lake of the Ozarks Community Bridge, which charges US$2.00 to US$3.00 for standard passenger vehicles and accepts cash only. If you drive through this toll or encounter tolls in neighboring states during your Kansas City Airport rental, you can claim the cashback after your trip.
To claim your Tolls Cashback:
- Email [email protected] within 30 days of returning the vehicle.
- Include your Hola Car Rentals reservation confirmation, the signed rental agreement, and a receipt or statement showing the toll charges paid.
- Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - HOLA followed by your confirmation number.
Refunds are issued to the original payment method and typically process within 7 to 10 business days after approval.
Can drivers under 25 rent a car at Kansas City Airport?
Yes, drivers between 21 and 24 years old can rent a car at Kansas City Airport, but a young-renter surcharge applies and certain vehicle classes are restricted.
In Missouri, the standard minimum age is 25 for no additional fees. Drivers aged 21 to 24 are permitted but will pay a daily young-renter surcharge at the Kansas City Airport counter. The surcharge amount varies by rental brand.
Vehicle class restrictions also apply for under-25 renters. Categories such as full-size SUVs, premium, luxury, minivans, and convertibles are typically reserved for drivers 25 and older. Economy, compact, intermediate, and compact SUV classes are generally available.
Drivers under 21 are not eligible to rent at Kansas City Airport. All standard requirements still apply regardless of age: a valid driver's license, a major credit card in the renter's name, and any required International Driving Permit.
What fuel policy applies to rental cars at Kansas City Airport?
Rentals picked up at Kansas City Airport 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, verify the fuel level with the agent and confirm it is recorded on the rental agreement. Take a photo of the dashboard showing the gauge and odometer.
Before returning your car to the Kansas City Airport Consolidated Rental Car Facility, refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location. The Paris Street exit near the facility provides access to a nearby gas station. Keep your fuel receipt as proof in case of any dispute.
If you return the vehicle 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 pump prices, plus an administrative service fee. Returning the car full is always the most cost-effective option.
How do I return my rental car at Kansas City Airport?
To return your rental car at Kansas City Airport, follow the Car Rental Returns signs as you enter the airport grounds. All vehicles are returned to the same Consolidated Rental Car Facility where you picked up, located at 1 International Square, Kansas City, MO 64153.
The facility accepts returns daily from 5:00 AM to 11:59 PM. For after-hours returns at Kansas City Airport:
- Park and lock the vehicle in the designated returns area under the canopy.
- Remove all personal belongings from the car.
- Complete your rental contract and place it with the keys in the key drop box at your rental brand's kiosk.
- Keep a photo of the fuel gauge and odometer as documentation.
Note that after-hours returns are accepted, but pick-up service is not available outside operating hours. A grace period of approximately 30 minutes typically applies for late returns during operating hours; returning beyond that window may result in additional time charges.
Is travel assistance included with my rental car booking at Kansas City Airport?
Yes, most Hola Car Rentals bookings, including those for cars picked up at Kansas City Airport, include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection. This benefit is available to non-North American customers. Residents of the United States and Canada do not qualify.
Coverage typically includes:
- Travel and medical insurance for up to 5 passengers.
- Legal assistance in the event of a road accident.
- Compensation for luggage lost by the airline.
- Flight cancellation insurance.
If you experience a medical emergency or accident while driving from Kansas City Airport, contact the assistance line immediately before incurring expenses, as some reimbursements require prior authorization.
