I was wondering if it might be standard to include as base for non-US drivers. Good to know it’s already included and not a glitch. I definitely don’t need anything else.

As a US renter these would both be additional charges.

"Rate Requirement


"Renters who have indicated a country of residence outside of the US will be required to present a non US issued drivers license and a non US issued passport OR an international airline ticket at the time of rental to qualify for the rate."

(U.S. car rentals are often priced cheaper for foreign visitors than for U.S. residents.)
Thanks for noting this, I never tried booking with a non-US portal and didn’t know there were special rates for international residents. This explains the price difference. I have a foreign passport and drivers license so I should be ok.
