Question 6

Is it a good idea to hire a car at Hilo Airport, ITO

Accepted Answer

Renting a car at Hilo Airport, ITO can be a good idea depending on your travel needs and preferences. If you plan to explore areas outside the city or need the flexibility of having your own vehicle, then renting a car might be beneficial. However, consider the cost, traffic conditions, and availability of public transportation, as in some cities it may be more convenient and cost-effective to use public transit or ride-sharing services. Always check the local driving laws and ensure you're comfortable with the driving conditions before deciding to hire a car.

Question 7

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

Accepted Answer

The fuel policy you select will determine your fueling responsibilities. With a full-to-full or same-to-same option, you need to return the car with the same amount of fuel it had at pickup. If not, you'll be charged for the missing fuel at a rate higher than the local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank. This means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, the cost will be higher overall since you'll be charged the local gas price minus a per-gallon discount, leading to an increased total cost.

Question 8

Can someone else drive my hire car?

Accepted Answer

For insurance coverage to remain valid, any additional drivers must be included in your hire agreement. If someone who is not listed drives the car, it could void the hire contract, and the insurance provider may refuse to cover any damage to the vehicle.
