Question 1

What is a one-way fee?

Accepted Answer

A one-way fee is charged if you return your car rental to a different location from where you picked it up. This fee covers the cost of transporting the car back to its original location. The fee amount varies based on the specific locations involved.

Question 2

Does Budget require refueling in Townsville Airport, Townsville, Australia?

Accepted Answer

The Budget fuel policy you select at Townsville Airport 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.
