Question 4

Accepted Answer

Yes – you can pick up Dollar rent cars from Alice Springs.

Question 5

Do I need to return the car with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

Whether you need to return the car with a full tank of gas depends on the fuel policy you select. With a full-to-full or same-to-same policy, you must return the vehicle with the same level of fuel it had when you picked it up. If you don’t, you’ll incur a charge for the missing fuel, usually at a rate higher than local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank, which means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, this option typically results in a higher overall cost, as you’ll be charged the local gas price minus a discount per gallon.

Question 9

Can another person drive my rental vehicle?

Accepted Answer

Check with the car rental company for specific terms and conditions.

Can I rent a car in Alice Springs for a month?

Accepted Answer

If you only have a debit card, check with the rental provider beforehand or use our website, VoyageCopilot.com, to find car rental options that accept debit cards.
