Q: Current requirements for infant and child safety seats in Hawaii?

Hawaii state law requires that all children under the age four be restrained in a federally approved child safety seat. The current law requires that children ages four through seven ride in a booster seat or car seat any time they are in a vehicle. The only exceptions are for children taller than 4'9" or those riding in vehicles with lap-only seatbelts in rear seats. Hawaii's law advises that children who have outgrown harnessed car seats (those who weigh between 40 and 65 pounds) should use a booster seat until they fit an adult seatbelt properly. This typically occurs when a child is at least 4'9" tall and weighs at least 80 pounds.

Q: What if my travel dates begin in the "Regular" rate timeframe and end in the "Summer" rate period?

The rate is fully dictated by the pick-up date. Your pick-up date of June 11th is still in low season. Thus, you will pay the lower rate for your entire trip.

Q: What documents and information will I need to carry when I pick up the vehicle?

All rental companies require each driver to show a valid driver’s license at their rental desk. A major credit or debit card is also required to rent a car. You will find more information online at your rental company’s site.

Q: Can I rent a car with a Debit Card?

Yes! Unless you are under 25 yrs of age. Young drivers (20-24) must use a major credit card when picking up a rental car. For drivers 25 yrs. and older, be sure your Debit Card shows the Visa or Mastercard logo on it. After obtaining a reservation, you can research more information online at your rental company’s site regarding credit and debit cards.
