Santorini tankstelle, Greece Road trip Q&A

Hello, I would like to ask if there is a direct deduction when renting a car on your holy island? My credit card was directly deducted $100, not pre-authorized. Is this a deposit? According to the rules, the deposit should not be so little. I rented a car from Avis ? Greece Q&A

Can anyone on the Holy Island take a photo of the contact information for a boat company that goes out to watch the sunset? It would be best if it's not from the internet, but from a local yacht's contact information, because we're not sure which day we can have free time, so we can only book a yacht to watch the sunset one day in advance or on the same day ?

I will arrive at Santorini at 10:30 pm tomorrow, and the airport car rental shops will be closed, so I have booked a hotel to pick me up. The hotel is in Oia.

Today, when we returned the car to Sixt in Salzburg, we asked the gas station attendant which level of car wash was needed when returning the car. He told us that the package of 6.99 euros was enough. When we arrived at Sixt, it was already after 12 o'clock and the staff had gone home. We had arrived 10 minutes early to greet the staff, but they said that they would not accept the car if it was late, and that they would collect it the next day. We could only listen to them across the road and put the key in the box ? Austria Q&A

Today we returned the car in Fira. We had agreed to return the car before 18:00 on the contract, but when we arrived at SIXT at 5:30, it was already closed. We had to walk to the next store to ask someone to borrow a phone to call at around 6 o'clock. They told us to park the car in the parking lot about 200 meters ahead, and then leave the car key under the seat without locking the car. It's too insecure, so I'm just going to leave the car there and return the key when the store opens at 9 o'clock tomorrow. Have you ever encountered this situation ? Greece Q&A

The United States is very large, and every time you go somewhere it's different. This summer, I went to Yellowstone and chose an SUV, but I regretted it because the high center of gravity made it tilt heavily on the mountain roads... and all the roads were paved, so if you don't have a need for a lot of luggage, don't choose an SUV. Last year, I rented a BMW 4 Series to drive around the Grand Canyon area and it felt great. I stayed in Yellowstone for 5 days, 2 days at Old Faithful, 2 days at Canyon, and 1 day at Yellowstone Lake. The itinerary was not tight, so I just played around and drove all the roads in Yellowstone. Accommodation in Yellowstone is expensive, and the itinerary was not optimized, but the gas prices were cheaper than in the Bay Area. As for cash and credit cards, to be honest, I haven't used much cash in recent years. I only keep cash for tips. Throughout the trip, I only used cash once at a strange restaurant in Salt Lake City for one night, and also used cash to send postcards at the Yellowstone post office. Everything else was done with credit cards, including self-service gas and meals. It was surprising to find out at a gas station in Carson City that they explicitly did not accept VISA credit cards and had to use a MasterCard. I remembered trying credit cards at gas stations in Utah and San Diego last year, and this year's experience was really different, as many gas stations have upgraded ? United States Q&A
