Houston, USA: Family Car Rental
The segments of standard, intermediate and full-size cars in USA traditionally include the following vehicles: Ford Taurus, Pontiac Grand Prix, Ford Mondeo, Hyundai Elantra, Nissan Primera, Pontiac G3 and others.

The process of a car reservation on OrangeSmile.com consists of 3 simple steps: (1) search by the dates and pick-up location, (2) car type selection, and (3) booking form completion. After the booking, you will receive a rental voucher at your e-mail address.

Before selecting a specific model to book, check your planned routes. If you are going to drive mostly within the Houston borders, choose a car of 'Standard' or 'Compact' types. In case you plan long cross-countries trips or mountain adventures, the more comfortable and powerful 'Fullsize' models would become a better choice.

If you need a car with an automatic gearbox, try to make a reservation at least a few days before the pick-up date, since confirmation of such models in Houston might be delayed for a day or two.

Upon the return of your car, carefully check that the total payment amount (invoice) is computed according to the original rental conditions.

We wish you 'smooth', secure and safe roads in Houston!

Driving Advices for USA – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
Drivers, who do not violate traffic rules and do not behave defiantly on the roads of the country, should definitely not be afraid of any punishments. If a serious violation of the traffic rules has happened, you need to respond calmly to requests of the local police, stop your car and stay inside the car.
Do not get out of the car as such actions can be considered as an attempt to escape. It is recommended to wait for a police officer, greet him politely and answer all the questions calmly. If he asks you to get out of the car, this must be done without any fast movements. Do not even try to give a bribe to the police! This will be considered as a serious crime.
Parking is paid at the exit. This procedure is carried out automatically. The specific value of the service depends on parking rates and the actual time of use of the parking.

Rental, parking and other info on Houston Hobby Airport
William P. Hobby Airport is the oldest civilian airport of Huston. It is located just a kilometre south of the city centre. It was founded in the 30s of the previous century. At present it is the second largest airport of Huston after George Bush Intercontinental Airport. It is a regional basic airport for private and corporate aviation. It is mainly meant for domestic flights across the country, but does service international flights. The passenger traffic amounts to 10 million people a year. The airport has 4 runways and one Central Terminal with 26 gates. It got its modern name from one of the Governors of Texas.

It is pretty easy to get to the city centre from the airport. SuperShuttle and taxi depart from arrival area 1. It is better to book tickets for the shuttle in advance. The urban underground can be reached by bus. After the luggage is proceeded in the arrival area, you should get into area 3, being guided by the signs. Bus number 40 will take you to the city centre, where George R. Brown Convention Center is situated. Buses to other destinations leave from the arrival area 4.

Car rental offices are situated at the ground level of the terminal (in the arrival area). You should proceed from the baggage claim area in the direction of the escalator and the staircase that lead to the passage to the Red Parking. The counters of such major international companies as Advantage, Avis, Budget, Dollar, and Enterprise are located next to the staircase. The desks of Alamo, Hertz, National, Thrifty, and Payless are found from across, beside the escalator. Various cars ranging from reasonably priced ones to premium-class vehicles are available. Car rental facilities do not work 24 hours a day, they have breaks during the night. However, this does not apply to such companies as Avis and Budget, because their offices operate round the clock.

Provisional booking through the online service will let you minimize the expenses for renting a car. Payment should be made by credit car both when booking online and making your reservation at the office. The places of receiving and returning a vehicle as well as some additional options (for example,a navigator, a dashboard camera, a baby seat and so on) are specified when processing the order. In most cases, you can receive your leased car in the parking lot in the territory of the terminal. You can get to the sites, where you will receive your vehicle, by a special shuttle, which departs from arrival area 1. You should just follow the signs "Rental Car Shuttles". Read all...
