Rental Cars
Terms & Conditions
Rental Cars - Terms and Conditions
-
All Car Reservations Must Be Prepaid--
All car reservations must be prepaid or they will automatically cancel.
-
24 Hour Rate Period--
Rates are based on a 24 hour period. For example, if you pick up your car at 2PM on Tuesday and return it at 4PM on Wednesday, that would be considered a 2-day rental because you have the car for over 24 hours.
-
Unlimited Mileage--
All car rentals offered by Family Vacations Hawaii provide unlimited mileage.
-
Dropoff and Pickup Locations--
In general, all cars are picked up and dropped off at the major airports in Hawaii.
-
Taxes, Fees and Insurance--
INCLUDED in Hertz prices: State of Hawaii 4.16%-4.56% General Excise Tax.
INCLUDED in Budget prices: State of Hawaii 4.16%-4.56% General Excise Tax; highway surcharge of $3.00 per day; airport concession fee of 7.5-11%, registration tax of up to 36 cents per day (weight dependent).
NOT INCLUDED in any of our rates are the optional Collision Damage Waivers and other optional insurances and waivers which you may select at the rental car counter in Hawaii, additional driver fees, underage driver fees, and any additional charges for child seats, cell phones, etc., which you may request at the rental car counter. You will pay these fees directly to the car rental company.
-
Insurance--
Prices DO NOT include the car rental protection plans (insurance.) These plans are OPTIONAL and purchase is NOT REQUIRED. You may purchase insurance from the car rental companies directly when you pick up your car.
-
Changes and Cancellations--
If you make changes AFTER you purchase your car booking, but BEFORE you use it, you may add on additional days or upgrade to a higher (more expensive) category and simply pay the additional price. If you subtract days or go to a lower (less expensive) category, you will receive a refund of the difference, less 15% of the refund amount.
To make such changes, please call Family Vacations Hawaii at 888-373-2422 and speak to one of our agents.
If you completely cancel your paid car reservation before the starting date of the reservation, you will receive a refund of your purchase price, less a 15% cancellation penalty.
If you have begun your rental and wish to add additional days or upgrade, you should deal directly with the rental car company and pay them directly, and not call Family Vacations Hawaii.
Once you have begun your car rental, any rental days you do not use are generally non-refundable. Car rentals not cancelled by the first day of travel are also not refundable.
-
Minimum Age--
Driver must be 21 years or older. If driver is 21 to 24 years old, an underage surcharge (ranging from $10 to $35) may be charged at the counter. Sorry, but there are no car rentals available from Family Vacations Hawaii to persons under 21 years of age.
-
Changes on day of car pick up--
If you need to make a change to your car rental (car category, pick up/drop off time, extra days, etc.) these changes need to be made with the rental car company directly and any applicable fee/charges paid to them directly. Upgrades are generally much cheaper if you originally book your car in the category you want, as opposed to buying an upgrade at the rental car counter.
-
International Drivers--
must present a valid, unexpired Driver's License from their home country. If this Driver's License is not in English, a current International Driver's License is required in addition to the national Driver's License.

-
Other Terms--
Other terms apply for individual car companies. You will be emailed these terms when you submit an order through the Family Vacations Hawaii web site, or you can view these terms
on our web site.
