Question 1

Are there any special requirements for customers renting a car at Oakland Metropolitan Oak Airport?

Accepted Answer

Customers renting a vehicle must meet age requirements, present a valid driver's license, and provide a credit card for payment and security deposit purposes.

Question 2

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 3

Do I need a valid passport to hire a car at Oakland Metropolitan Oak Airport?

Accepted Answer

A valid passport is typically required for international customers renting a vehicle. For domestic renters, a valid driver’s license is usually sufficient. In the United States and Canada, U.S. and Canadian residents generally only need a valid driver’s license. In Europe, residents of EU countries can often hire with just a driver’s license from their home country. Always verify the specific identification requirements with the hire company, as they can vary based on the country and region.

Question 4

Is it cheaper to hire a car for a week at Oakland Metropolitan Oak Airport, OAK

Accepted Answer

Sometimes it can be cheaper to hire a car for a week rather than for a shorter period, but it's better to double-check while booking.

Question 5

What information is included in the car hire contract?

Accepted Answer

The hire contract normally includes comprehensive details such as the terms and conditions of the hire, insurance coverage options, hire duration, and payment details. It also outlines any additional services requested, such as GPS or child seats, and specifies policies on fuel, mileage limits, and fees for additional drivers. Additionally, the contract normally includes information about responsibilities for property damage, procedures for returning the vehicle, age requirements, and accepted forms of identification, like a valid driver's license and credit card.

Question 6

What are the benefits of renting a car from Oakland Metropolitan Oak Airport, OAK?

Accepted Answer

Additionally, airport locations often have a wide selection of vehicles available, including exotics, sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, small cars, compact cars, people carrier cars, 7 seaters, 8 seaters, 9 seaters, 10 seater cars, ensuring you have plenty of options.

Accepted Answer

These usually include being of a certain age, holding a valid driver's license, and having a major credit card. In some countries, an International Driving Permit (IDP) may also be required for foreigners. It's best to check with the local car hire company or their website for specific details and to understand any additional documents or conditions that may apply.

Question 8

Should I purchase extra insurance when renting a car at Oakland Metropolitan Oak Airport, OAK?

Accepted Answer

All hire companies require valid insurance for financial protection; without it, your hire request may be denied. You might not need additional insurance if you already have coverage that applies to international hires for your chosen car type or class, or if your credit card provides insurance for hires abroad. If these conditions do not apply, purchasing extra protection is essential. You can secure your deposit by buying Excess Fee Insurance during booking on our website or opting for Full Coverage Insurance or Excess Reduction at the hire counter.
