What is Estimated Rental
Price? The Estimated Rental Price includes the total of all
known rates, taxes, fees, surcharges and applicable drop off charges that
you must pay either by law or by local policy for the length of a
particular car rental request. This price does not include optional
services such as insurance waivers, special equipment, mileage charges, or
gasoline etc. It also does not include extra day or hour charges that can
result from a late return of the rental car. This price is provided so you
can better estimate the total price you may pay to the rental car company
for your car, but is not a guarantee of your total charges.
Are there special taxes for car rentals in
countries outside of the US? Yes, there can be some mandatory
taxes that are only applied in certain countries. Check with the car
company when you are picking up your car.
What is the difference between base
rental rate and total charges? The base rate is the amount of
the rental before any taxes, service fees or mandatory insurance charges
are included. Total charges would include all additional fees.
What are CDW, PAI, TPI, VAT, VLF and
airport taxes? Do I have to pay them? CDW is Collision Damage
Waiver, PAI is Personal Accident Insurance, TPI is Theft Protection
Insurance, VAT is Value Added Tax, and VLF is Vehicle License Fee. Airport
taxes are the fees that the airports charge to car companies for the use
of their terminals, railroads, and roads; plus other service charges
mandated by the airport. Yes, some of these various taxes and charges are
mandatory and you will be advised of them at the time of car pick
up.
Will I need a credit card in my name
to rent a car? Yes, the driver will need to present a valid
credit card in the driver's name. Debit cards are not accepted.
How old do I have to be to rent a
car? Most major car rental companies require renters to be a
minimum of 25 years of age. Some car rental companies do allow renters at
the minimum age of 18 but there is an increase in the rate of the rental
and a deposit is required.
Do I need a foreign drivers
License? Not all car companies require you to have a license
from the country in which you are driving. Check with your car rental
agency prior to pick up to be sure you are prepared.
Are car accessories
available? Many rental agencies offer car accessories such as
child seats, ski racks, tape/CD players, etc. You can request these at the
time of reservation in the "Special Requests or Information" section of
the Interactive Affiliate Network Secure Car Reservation form when making
your car rental reservation. Extra charges may apply for these items and
they are based on availability.
Can I modify/change an existing
reservation? Yes; however, modifications may cause rate
changes. Car rates can change daily, or even hourly, so changes you make
to your reservation after confirmation can affect the original

car pick up location from the airport. You will need to ask about this
service prior to your arrival or check at the airport.
Will I receive the make/model of car
I have reserved? Receiving the requested make or model of car

[25.10.2008] Single women on New Year's Eve
Single women do it all the time. Alone at home, alone in paradise - what's the difference? OK I wasnt thrilled when my friends were too tired to go out to dinner after diving in Roatan and I ate dinner on Christmas alone with every waiter in the place coming over to ask why I was alone and where my family was....
But if you go to a place like Ambergris Caye, Belize and head out to a bar the night before you'll probably have a group of people to hang out with for New Years. In 10 days there, I never made the walk into town once - men kept stopping and offering me rides on their golf carts!
There's an all inclusive resort/spa in St Lucia called Le Source (mostly women go there) or Amansala near Tulum - bikini boot camp - a friend of mine did this after her husband announced he didnt want to be married anymore and had a great time. It was mostly women our age from the NY area....
I wouldnt hesitate to go away alone - in fact, I'm still considering it if I can get a decent fare!
