Before you leave the lot

Before you begin on your Cuba adventure, check out a few things prior to leaving the car rental lot. You should:

• Walk around your car and be sure there is no damage or scratches. If so, mark it down on your paperwork
• Check the trunk to see if the spare is properly inflated and the necessary tools to change it are there
