and Tips |
Renting
a car can be a simple and easy process. But, for something so
simple, many people  end up with the unfortunate surprise that
a quick, uninformed or misinformed decision can bring delays,
unnecessary expenses or major legal hassles. We can help you
become informed so that renting a car stays a simple and
pleasant experience. Car rental rates can be just as
tough to understand as airfares. Added insurance, drop-off
fees, and fuel charges can stack up fast if you're not savvy.
Learn tips of renting a car,
and save time and money the next time you travel. We translate
what's in the fine print to let you know about hidden
costs, and if it's worth spending the extra bucks on them.

| Remember
these car-rental rules |
Age
limits: Most rental-car companies require you to be at least 25
years old to rent a car.
Credit/debit cards: Most rental-car companies require a
credit card, or a debit card featuring the
MasterCard or
Visa logos, to make your car-rental reservation. Although some
rental-car companies do not apply these car-rental rules, you may
want to check with the rental-car company first, before you
reserving a rental car.
Proof of insurance: Many rental-car companies also require
you to provide proof of insurance when you pick up your car rental.
If you forget your proof of insurance -- or don't have car insurance
-- you may have to pay for the rental-car company's insurance.
Remember that some credit cards automatically provide car-rental
insurance as a service to their cardholders. Check with your credit
card company for details. |
