Featured Asked Questions

Renters must be at least 20 years old to rent a vehicle at most locations in the U.S. and Canada.

Restricted cars include: Dream Car Collection (luxury and exotic models) Prestige Collection (high-end luxury brands) Adrenaline Collection (high-performance sports cars) and select specialty or commercial vehicles.

No. Car rentals must be paid with a credit card in the primary renter’s name.
No. If you don’t have your own personal insurance, you may be required to purchase liability insurance with the rental company. You may not need the automobile insurance offered by the car rental company. Your personal automobile insurance policy may provide coverage for your liability while operating a rental vehicle; check with your personal insurance provider. The purchase of automobile rental liability insurance is not required as a condition of renting an automobile. Liability and collision insurance can be purchased at the time of rental. AAA Northeast offers Car Rental Collision Loss Damage Protection through Allianz, which must be purchased prior to pickup.  International rentals may differ. 
If your personal insurance does not protect you on a rental car, you should purchase insurance. International car rentals may differ.
It depends on the type of insurance purchased. Purchasing a liability insurance supplement protects you in the event of an accident that is your fault, covering any damage to others’ property and medical costs for injuries. Collision and comprehensive coverage, whether through your personal auto policy or a rental company's Collision/Loss Damage Waiver, pay to repair or replace the rental car if it is damaged in a crash, stolen, vandalized, or affected by weather, fire or an animal collision.
If you get into a car accident with a rental car you should ensure everyone is safe, call the police and document the scene. Immediately following these steps, you must contact both the rental company and your insurance provider.
The sooner you book it, the more likely you are to lock in a lower rate. As inventory dwindles, rates tend to increase.
