Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Pittsburgh Intl. Airport (PIT)?
You can, and there's plenty of choice. After you touch down, simply walk to the rental car centre on the Baggage Claim level of the Landside Terminal. Here you can book from fantastic companies like Enterprise, Hertz and Dollar. If you'd like some more options, also check out Alamo and National.
What happens if I need to cancel my Houston car reservation?
Scan over your rental agreement to be sure, but nearly all rentals are eligible for a total refund if you advise us a minimum of six hours before collecting the car. There are some exceptions though. Your itinerary will have more details, or just click through to our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Houston?
Dash around in a nifty mini, style it up in a premium ride or go for something in between, like an intermediate. But it's hard to go past a compact vehicle — the most commonly booked rental type in Houston. They're a snap to handle and park, fuel-efficient and a great idea if you're road-tripping around big cities. A step up from economy, you can expect a bit more room and comfort at a price that's still nice.
Where can I go on a road trip from Houston?
Houston offers adventures galore, but don't restrict yourself to just one place. Grab a set of wheels and take to the road to see what's in the surrounding area. Here are some places to consider:

  • Make tracks to Akron for a fantastic sightseeing experience. Around 145 kilometres from Houston, it has tons of inspiring sights such as Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens.
  • Roughly 193 kilometres away, Cleveland is also a hit with travellers. Allow time to check out Progressive Field while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love this thriving city.
  • Make your way to American Falls to discover some local nature. Take a picnic to enjoy or just chill out in the fresh air. From Houston, it's about 322 kilometres away.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Houston?

Be sure to enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to learn if any extra fees or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Houston?
Be prepared to present a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name when you get to the rental counter. Before pickup, check with your selected company whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of insurance.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Houston?

Where can I find a Houston car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Houston outlets will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Age policies differ between suppliers, so be prepared to do your homework. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some outlets will apply a surcharge to young customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
