What happens if I need to cancel my New York car reservation?

Be sure to double-check your rental agreement — there are some cases where it's not offered. Can't find the details there? Our Customer Service Portal is always available to help.

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 car — the top choice in New York.
