How old do you have to be to rent a car in Athlone?
Drivers aged 21 and above can go road-tripping around Athlone in a rental car. If you're a young renter, a daily surcharge applies. You'll generally have fewer car categories to pick from, such as economy and compact, and may also have to purchase comprehensive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to learn if any surcharges or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Athlone?
Most rental companies will need these two things — a current driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you decide to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.
What is the cheapest car rental in Athlone?
Athlone has had some happy car rental customers lately. Daily prices within the past seven days dropped as low as AU$219 and AU$250. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Athlone?
Whether you're planning to hang around Athlone or venture beyond, you can reserve a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip dates and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll help you find excellent long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find an Athlone car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver hoping to rent a car in Athlone, we recommend reading the terms and conditions of the various car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be additional costs if you're aged between 21 and 24. To escape any unwanted surprises at the rental desk, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
Can I drive in Athlone with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license from the U.S, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with your car rental. Please read the details before booking!
