FAQ
Does it reserve the car?
Does it reserve the car?
No. Even the booking summary is a price recap, not a booking: it shows the
vehicle, pick-up, drop-off and the full price breakdown so the user can
decide. No reservation or payment is made.
How current are the prices?
How current are the prices?
Fetched at request time for the dates, times and driver age you give. The
search key ties the detail tools to that search, so re-run the search if
a details call says the key is stale.
Which currencies, languages and locations?
Which currencies, languages and locations?
Prices in any currency on Booking.com’s currency list and text in any
language on its language list; pick-up points anywhere its car-rental
partners operate, found through the location search.
