Não. Com a Hola Car Rentals, todos os custos e cobranças da sua reserva em Kelowna são apresentados claramente no momento da reserva e no e-mail de confirmação, para que você saiba exatamente o que está pagando antes de chegar ao balcão.

Além disso, cada reserva da Hola Car Rentals inclui a garantia No Extra Charges©. Esta é uma garantia de preços (não uma proteção) que protege você caso o balcão em Kelowna cobre por algo que não estava listado na sua confirmação e que não era um adicional opcional que você aceitou. Se isso acontecer, a Hola Car Rentals trabalhará com o parceiro de aluguel para remover ou reembolsar a cobrança após verificação.

Os únicos custos fora desta garantia são:

• Adicionais opcionais escolhidos no balcão (GPS, cadeirinhas para crianças, combustível pré-pago)
• Cobranças por uso (pedágios, diferença de combustível, multas de trânsito)

No, there are no toll roads in or around Kelowna itself. British Columbia's interior highways, including the routes you will most likely use when driving your Alamo rental in Kelowna, are toll-free.

The only tolled crossing in British Columbia is the Port Mann Bridge in the Greater Vancouver area. If your Alamo itinerary takes you from Kelowna toward Vancouver and you cross that bridge, tolls apply. The Port Mann Bridge uses a fully cashless, plate-based system, meaning there are no cash booths. The charge is captured by camera and billed electronically to the vehicle's registered owner, which in this case is Alamo.

When that happens, Alamo will pass the toll cost to you along with an administrative processing fee. To avoid surprise charges after your rental ends, you can:

• Ask the Alamo counter in Kelowna about their toll program options before you drive toward Vancouver
• Keep any toll receipts or statements you receive
• Submit a Tolls Cashback claim within 30 days of returning the vehicle to recover up to 5% of your Kelowna booking total

For most trips staying within the Okanagan region, you will not encounter any tolls at all.

To collect your Alamo rental in Kelowna, you must bring the following physical documents to the counter:

• Your original, unexpired driver's license in the main driver's name
• A major credit card with the driver's name printed on the physical card, used for the security deposit hold
• Your passport or valid government-issued photo ID
• Your booking confirmation
• 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 other non-English scripts, an IDP is strongly recommended. The IDP is a translation only and is not valid without your original license.

All documents must be physical originals. Digital copies shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted at the Alamo counter in Kelowna. Debit cards and prepaid cards are not accepted for the security deposit hold; only a major credit card in the main driver's name qualifies.

When you pick up your Alamo rental in Kelowna, the counter will place a temporary authorization hold on your credit card. For standard vehicles rented in Canada, this hold is typically in the range of CAUS$ 300 to CAUS$ 500, though some Alamo locations may require a minimum authorization closer to CAUS$ 750.

This is not a charge. It is a temporary block on your available credit that is released after you return the vehicle and the rental contract closes. Your bank or card issuer controls how quickly the hold disappears from your statement, and it can take up to 15 business days after return.

A few important points to keep in mind for your Kelowna Alamo pickup:

• Only a major credit card with the driver's name printed on the physical card is accepted for the hold
• Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted
• Premium or larger vehicle classes may carry a higher hold amount
• Bring a backup credit card in case your primary card is declined
• Notify your bank of your travel plans to prevent the authorization from being flagged as suspicious

The exact hold amount is set by the Alamo desk in Kelowna and may vary by season or vehicle class. Ask the agent to confirm the amount before they process your card.

Yes, all bookings made through Hola Car Rentals, including Alamo rentals in Kelowna, include Tolls Cashback of up to 5% of your total booking value.

While Kelowna itself has no toll roads, you may encounter the Port Mann Bridge toll if you drive your Alamo vehicle toward Vancouver, or other tolled routes if you travel beyond British Columbia. Any tolls you pay during your rental period are eligible for the cashback claim.

To claim your refund:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of returning your Alamo vehicle in Kelowna
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback, followed by your reservation number
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation, the Alamo rental agreement, and a receipt or statement showing the toll charges
• Include your full name, travel dates, and the last 4 digits of the card used for your booking

Refunds are issued to the original payment method and typically process within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Claims submitted after 30 days are not accepted. This benefit does not mean tolls are prepaid; you still pay them normally and claim reimbursement afterward.

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

Here is what to do at each stage of your rental:

• At pickup: check the fuel gauge with the Alamo agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on your rental agreement. Take a photo of the dashboard showing the gauge and odometer
• During the rental: use the correct fuel type as shown in the vehicle. Keep your fuel receipts in case of any dispute
• Before return: refuel within approximately 15 km of the Kelowna return location so the gauge does not drop below full before you arrive. Take a photo of the full gauge and keep the final receipt showing the station address and time

If you return the Alamo vehicle in Kelowna with less than a full tank, you may be charged for the fuel shortfall at the partner's refueling rate, which is typically higher than the pump price, plus a refueling service fee. Returning the car full is always the most cost-effective option.

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

For Alamo rentals in Kelowna, the additional driver fee is CAUS$ 15 per day plus applicable taxes when not included in your rate. 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 Kelowna:

• The additional driver must be present at pickup and show a valid driver's license
• They must meet the minimum age requirements for renting in British Columbia
• If their license is not in English or uses a non-Latin alphabet, an International Driving Permit is required alongside the original license
• Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement

Only drivers listed on the Alamo rental agreement are covered by the vehicle's protections such as CDW and liability coverage. Anyone who drives the Kelowna rental without being named on the contract may void those protections and expose you to additional charges.

Yes, a basic level of third-party liability coverage is included by default with Alamo rentals in Kelowna. Under Canadian provincial law, every rental vehicle in British Columbia must carry third-party liability insurance, so this statutory coverage comes with the vehicle automatically.

This coverage protects you against bodily injury and property damage you may cause to other people while driving your Alamo rental in Kelowna. It does not cover damage to the rental vehicle itself (that is handled by CDW or LDW) or your own personal injuries.

You can also purchase supplemental liability coverage at the Alamo counter in Kelowna to increase your protection limits beyond the provincial minimum. This is worth considering if you plan to drive longer distances, such as from Kelowna toward Vancouver or into other provinces.

Only drivers named on the Alamo rental agreement are covered. If someone drives the vehicle who is not listed on the contract, coverage may be void. Always add every driver at the counter before leaving the Kelowna location.

Yes, most bookings made through Hola Car Rentals, including Alamo rentals in Kelowna, include travel assistance provided by Terrawind Global Protection. However, this benefit does not apply to Canadian or US residents; it is available only to travelers visiting from outside North America.

If you are eligible, the 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

This can be particularly useful if you experience a medical emergency or an accident while driving your Alamo rental on the highways around Kelowna, where distances between towns can be significant. Always contact the assistance line before incurring medical expenses, as some reimbursements require prior authorization.

To reach assistance 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. Check your booking confirmation for the exact coverage terms that apply to your Alamo rental in Kelowna.

Yes, one-way rentals are possible with Alamo in Kelowna, but a drop-off fee may apply depending on your return location.

The drop-off fee is route-specific and varies based on the distance between Kelowna and your chosen return city, the vehicle class, and the season. Common patterns include:

• Returning to another city in British Columbia such as Vancouver: a drop-off fee typically applies
• Returning to a location in another province: a drop-off fee usually applies and may be higher
• Cross-border one-ways between Canada and the United States: these are often restricted or carry significant fees, and may not be permitted depending on the Alamo rate selected

During the booking process on the Hola Car Rentals website, any applicable drop-off fee for your Alamo Kelowna rental will be shown on the rate details page under the section labeled "To pay at destination." This fee cannot be prepaid and is settled directly with Alamo at the counter.

If you change your return location after booking, the fee may be recalculated. Always verify the drop-off fee on your confirmation before traveling.

It depends on the language and script of your driver's license. For your Alamo rental in Kelowna, the rules are as follows:

• If your license is in English or uses a Latin alphabet, you can generally drive in British Columbia on your valid foreign license without an IDP
• If your license uses a non-Latin alphabet such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic, an IDP is mandatory alongside your original license
• If your license is in a non-English language but uses a Latin alphabet, an IDP is strongly recommended, though not always strictly required

The IDP is a translation document only. It is not a standalone license and will not be accepted at the Alamo counter in Kelowna without your original license. You must obtain the IDP in your home country before traveling, as it cannot be issued abroad.

Bring both your original license and your IDP to the Alamo pickup in Kelowna. If there is any doubt about whether your license will be accepted, carrying an IDP eliminates the risk of being turned away at the counter.

If you return your Alamo vehicle in Kelowna after the agreed drop-off time, a grace period of approximately 30 minutes typically applies, though this is not guaranteed and depends on the specific Alamo location's policy.

If you exceed the grace period, Alamo may charge you for additional time, which could be billed as extra hours or an additional full day, plus any applicable late fees. These charges are separate from your prepaid booking total and are settled directly with Alamo.

To avoid late return charges on your Kelowna rental:

• Plan your return time to account for refueling near the drop-off location
• Check whether the Alamo location in Kelowna has adjusted hours on public holidays
• If you need more time, contact Alamo directly to request a rental extension before your scheduled return time

If you are returning after hours, follow the key-drop instructions provided in your rental agreement. Note that your liability for the vehicle may continue until Alamo formally checks it in the next business day.

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) reduces your financial liability for damage to your Alamo rental vehicle in Kelowna caused by a collision, theft, or vandalism. Whether it is included in your rate or available as an add-on depends on the specific booking you selected.

Check your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation to see whether CDW or LDW is listed as included. If a deductible or excess applies, you are responsible for that amount per incident even with coverage active.

Important things to know about CDW and LDW for your Alamo rental in Kelowna:

• It covers the rental vehicle only, not damage or injury you cause to third parties (that requires separate liability coverage)
• Tires, wheels, the undercarriage, and the roof are commonly excluded unless a specific add-on is purchased
• Coverage applies only to drivers named on the Alamo rental agreement
• Prohibited use such as off-road driving, driving under the influence, or crossing into restricted areas can void the coverage
• Any incident must be reported to Alamo immediately; delayed reporting can invalidate a claim

At pickup in Kelowna, confirm with the Alamo agent that CDW or LDW is active on your contract and note the deductible amount before signing.

When you arrive at Kelowna International Airport (YLW) to collect your Alamo rental, follow the car rental signs inside the terminal. Alamo counter locations at smaller regional airports like Kelowna are typically located within or directly adjacent to the main terminal building, so a shuttle is generally not required.

A few steps to make your Alamo pickup in Kelowna straightforward:

• Check your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation for any specific pickup instructions or counter address provided for the Kelowna location
• Match the operating brand name on your confirmation to the signage at the airport; in some cases Alamo may share a counter area with National or Enterprise, as they are part of the same brand family
• If the counter appears closed or unstaffed, look for a courtesy phone near the rental area or ask airport information staff for assistance
• Bring all required documents so the Alamo agent in Kelowna can process your contract quickly

If you are picking up from a city location rather than the airport, your confirmation will include the street address. Confirm the address and operating hours before you travel, as city branch hours in Kelowna may differ from airport counter hours.
