10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Christmas

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting the type of vehicle and specific features you require. Whether you're after an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the ideal match for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary significantly based on demand, so it’s advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you’re likely to obtain more favourable rates and enjoy a wider selection, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Generally, smaller vehicles are more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals offer a good compromise between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain types of vehicles—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements before making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements require a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is typically the most advantageous option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are acceptable as well; just ensure you return the car empty in this scenario.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the added convenience may justify the cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unforeseen expenses and provides peace of mind in case something unexpected occurs during your trip. Adding car rental insurance when booking through Expedia is a straightforward process.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan to embark on long road trips, search for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's licence and ID: A valid driver's licence is necessary to rent a vehicle.

Can I drive in Christmas with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the U.S, you may be required to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence 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 current driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:
  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the car rental company before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with your home.
