Can I rent a car from Gainesville Regional Airport (GNV)?

What happens if I need to cancel my Gainesville car reservation?
When you cancel at least six hours ahead of picking up the car, many prepaid reservations qualify for a total refund. However, not all are eligible for this, so it's important to understand your cancellation policy. Read through your booking for the specifics or go to our Customer Service Portal for more information.
Where can I go on a road trip from Gainesville?
Gainesville is full of adventures, but don't limit yourself to just the one place. Rent some wheels and take to the road to explore the surrounding area. Here are a few places to choose from:

  • Daytona Beach is 137 kilometres from Gainesville. Popular attractions like Daytona International Speedway should be at the top of your list here.
  • About 153 kilometres away, Orlando is also a hit with wanderers. Make time to experience Universal Studios Florida while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love coming to this thriving city.
  • Make tracks to Siesta Key Beach to discover some local nature. Pack a picnic to enjoy or just sit and unwind. From Gainesville, it's about 274 kilometres away.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Gainesville with Expedia?
Expedia makes it quick and easy to compare fees, offers and rental providers, and to check reviews. Bundle your Gainesville car rental with hotel or flight bookings and you'll make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Gainesville?
The youngest age you can rent a vehicle in Gainesville is 21. An extra fee for young drivers typically applies, so check before you book and budget for any extra costs. There could also be restrictions on the sorts of cars that can be rented by young drivers. For example, some companies will only rent out economy, compact and medium-sized cars to young motorists. Requirements may vary between providers, so read the fine print carefully.
What do you need to rent a car in Gainesville?
Most rental companies will ask for these two things — a valid driver's licence and credit card. If you'd like to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.
What is the cheapest car rental in Gainesville?
The two lowest daily prices recorded in Gainesville within the past seven days were AU$98 and AU$133. Now that's what we'd call a fantastic deal! 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 Gainesville?
You can rent a car for a month or even longer in Gainesville, so go on and extend your stay! Simply enter your trip dates into our long-term car rental deals page and book your ideal ride.
Where can I find a Gainesville car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental companies, so be prepared to do a bit of research. Managed to find a Gainesville supplier that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Terrific news! Just bear in mind that a surcharge often applies to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in should have all the details you need.
Can I drive in Gainesville with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the U.S, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., know that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card 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 must be at least 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your car rental. Please read the regulations before you book!
