Frequently Asked Questions

Is insurance included in long-term car rentals at San Jose Airport?

Basic insurance is usually included in long-term rentals, as it is a legal requirement for all cars in Costa Rica. This is why most deals include additional benefits such as Third-Party Liability, Collision Damage Waiver, and Theft Protection. You may opt for extra coverage when making a reservation at San Jose Airport, but remember to read the policies beforehand.

What is the fuel policy for long-term car rentals at San Jose Airport?

A full-to-full fuel policy is usually included with a long-term car hire at San Jose Airport, requiring you to return the vehicle with a full tank as you received it at pickup. Some companies may also offer a same-to-same fuel policy, under which the vehicle must be returned with the same fuel level as when collected. In any case, returning the car with missing fuel can result in refuelling charges.

Avis, Europcar, and Adobe are some of the trusted brands for long-term car rentals at San Jose Airport. Run a quick car search and compare offers from these companies and many more to get the best deal for your travel plans in Costa Rica.

Can I use my International Driver’s Licence for a long-term car rental at San Jose Airport?

An International Driving Permit (IDP) is accepted by a majority of the suppliers for long-term car rentals at San Jose Airport. A valid driver’s license from your home country is generally sufficient. But an IDP or an English translation will also be required at pickup if the original licence is issued in a non-Latin alphabet (e.g., Cyrillic, Chinese, Arabic).

How can I book the cheapest long-term rental at San Jose Airport?

While you can always choose from the mini, economy, and compact categories to hire a car, booking early can save you money on long-term reservations in other vehicle segments as well. You can also compare offers to get the best value for the vehicle you need at San Jose Airport.

How much does a long-term car rental cost at San Jose Airport?

Long-term car rental prices at San Jose Airport change with each booking, depending on the chosen vehicle segment, supplier, and travel season. An economy car is typically priced at USD 900 or more. But hiring SUVs and 4×4 vehicles can cost you anywhere from USD 1,600 to USD 2,500 or more. Enter your travel information in the booking form to get accurate quotes and compare companies to find the lowest possible rates.

Do long-term car rentals at San Jose Airport include unlimited mileage?

Unlimited mileage is standard in a majority of long-term car rental deals at San Jose Airport. But mileage may be restricted in some offers, where you are charged a per-km fee for driving beyond the daily mileage limits. Use the applicable filters to view only relevant booking options when searching for cars.

Can I rent a 4×4 car for a long-term stay at San Jose Airport?

4×4 vehicles can be rented for long-term travel at San Jose Airport. These are quite popular among travellers who need to drive across Costa Rica’s uneven terrains. Before making a reservation, make sure to read the vehicle specifications to confirm if it is truly a 4WD.

Can I pick up a long-term rental at San Jose Juan Santamaria Airport and return it in another city?

Long-term car hire for a one-way trip from San Jose Airport to any other major city in Costa Rica is possible. Enable the ‘Different Drop-off Location?’ option on the booking form to find available deals for your preferred pickup and drop-off points. The supplier will charge an additional fee based on your chosen one-way route.

Do I need a credit card to rent a car for a long-term trip at San Jose Airport?

A credit card in the main driver’s name is required by car hire companies to block a security deposit at the time of pickup at San Jose Airport.
