I apologize for the (probably) silly question, but here goes anyways....

I am a Gold Member that is arriving at IAH on a very late AA flight (from Charlotte) that lands shortly before midnight. The operating hours for Hertz at IAH are listed as closing at 1000PM.

I am assuming my vehicle will be waiting for me once I arrive, I will have to collect checked bags and schlep them over to the rental car lot... so I would not expect to be inside my car until well after midnight. While I dont need to actually see anybody at the Hertz Counter and/or the Hertz Parking lot booth.... can I be sure that there will be someone at the parking lot exit to do the usual final documentation check and open the "gate" for me to be able to exit the airport...?

Thanks,
