The 15-minute grace period, hourly fees and how the host opens a late-return claim.
There is a 15-minute grace period at the end of every reservation. After that, late returns are billed at the hourly rate of the vehicle plus a $50 late fee per hour, up to a maximum of $500. If you know you'll be late, message the owner immediately to request an extension.
To assess a late fee, the owner emails support@bookaclassic.com within 24 hours of the scheduled end of the reservation, identifying the renter and the actual return time.
