Reservations cannot be changed online. If you need to a make change to your reservation, please contact our Customer Service Center at the numbers below for assistance. If your cancellation or change request is made after the cutoff date applicable hotel penalties noted in the cancellation policy section of your reservation may apply. Changes or cancellations made after check-in are subject to 100% penalty. Once you have checked into a hotel you cannot cancel nor receive credit for unused nights if you check-out early.
NOTE: You may be required to cancel your original reservation and rebook it for the new dates. However, we suggest you first check availability for the new desired dates in order to avoid any disappointment from canceling your first booking if the new dates are not available.
What is the cancellation policy? Will my credit card be charged if I do not cancel my reservation(s)? Cancellation policies vary from each hotel and are implemented by hotels to avoid holding a room available for a guest who will not use it. If you do not cancel your reservation within the allotted cancellation period, the hotel will charge a penalty (usually one night's room charge plus tax) to the credit card provided to reserve the room. Please be sure to review the cancellation policy for your hotel carefully during the booking process. If you have questions about the cancellation policy for your particular hotel reservation, please contact our Customer Care Center for assistance.
For non-cancelable reservations, no changes or cancellations are permitted once a confirmation number is issued.
My cancellation policy reads "Cancel 24 hours prior to arrival" and I plan on checking in at 11:00 pm. Can I cancel my reservation by 11:00 pm on the day before my arrival? Cancellation policies are related to the hotel check-in time, not your projected arrival time. If your hotel cancellation policy indicates a 24, 48 or 72 hour cancellation policy, it means you must cancel your reservation by 4:00 pm local hotel time of the date in question.

Please note that we can not be held responsible if you book a room type that cannot accommodate your party size.
Our children will be traveling with us - do they stay free? In the United States children less than 12 years of age typically stay for free in the room using the existing bedding.

No, with our car reservation system, you can pick up your car at an airport or locations outside the airport, depending upon what is available. Rental car companies have offices in cities, at resorts, at ports and other frequently visited locations.
Be sure to check the policies indicated by your rental. Most companies provide a description of any geographical restrictions and drop-off information. If there is such a charge, it will be included in the total estimate at the time of booking.
Check the policies for the location of your desired rental. The age restriction changes from location to location and from country to country. In the United States, the standard minimum rental age is 25. Some locations have exceptions for corporate accounts and may allow persons as young as 21 years of age to rent a car. In some countries, this restriction can be higher or lower. Please check the policies section on age restriction for more detailed information. Please be aware that additional charges may apply for renters under the standard age.
Check the policies for the location of your desired rental. Most rentals do not automatically include insurance coverage. However, several types of coverage can be purchased at most locations, such as loss/damage waivers, personal accident insurance, and supplemental liability insurance.
If you are picking up your car at an airport location, the desk location of the rental company will be listed in the reservation. You can also obtain any transportation details (such as shuttle information) and the telephone number of the company and other information from the policies section of your reservation.
The requirements differ from company to company, but in almost all cases you must present a valid driver's license and a valid credit card (not an ATM or Debit Card) under the name of the renter. Also, you should have a good driving record - some companies check your driving record at the counter and your rental may be denied due to a suspended license, excessive points, drunk driving convictions, et cetera. It is a good idea to contact the company in advance if you feel there may be a problem.
