9 tips to save on your International Airport car rental near Bocas del Toro

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you need an SUV for extra space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for added luggage capacity, use the filters on Expedia to help you find the perfect match for your trip.
  2. Book in advance for some of the best rates: It’s generally advisable to book your BOC car rental as early as possible to secure lower rates and a wider selection. Reserving your vehicle 1-3 months in advance is ideal, especially during peak travel seasons.
  3. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might have limited availability. This could also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements before finalizing your booking.
  4. Consider a budget-friendly car for savings: Smaller vehicles like economy or compact cars are typically less expensive to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals require a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is usually the most economical option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car empty in this scenario.
  6. Know your payment options: Most rental companies require a credit card in the driver's name for security deposits. Debit cards might not always be accepted.
  7. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected costs and provide peace of mind if something unforeseen occurs during your trip. Adding car rental insurance when booking with Expedia is straightforward.
  8. Check for unlimited mileage: If you plan to spend significant time on the road, look for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent extra charges on longer journeys.
  9. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
