Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Manchester Airport (MAN)?
You sure can. Once you've collected your bags at Manchester Airport (MAN), you'll find the rental car centre at the Rental Car Centre. Arrange a ride with Sixt, National Car Rental or Hertz. Budget and Enterprise are other suppliers worth considering.
What happens if I need to cancel my Greater Manchester car reservation?
Cancelling a prepaid car booking six hours before the scheduled pickup time should allow for your money back. However, this is not always guaranteed. It's worth reading through your itinerary and rental agreement. Still can't find the answer? Head over to our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Greater Manchester?
Affordably priced, a cinch to handle and fuel-efficient, it's not surprising compact cars are the most booked type of rental in Greater Manchester. Drive around this city in one of these and you'll be able to park in tight spaces and easily manoeuvre busy streets. A compact is ideal for city breaks or short road trips. But they're not your only choice. Go even smaller with an economy ride or stretch out in an intermediate, a full-size or premium — there's a style of vehicle to suit you!
How do I find the best car rental deals in Greater Manchester with Expedia?
Check out customer reviews, choose your car type and compare prices from leading suppliers. Expedia makes it easy to pick up the best deal on your rental wheels. Combine your Greater Manchester car rental with hotel or flight bookings and start your road trip with even more savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Greater Manchester?
Greater Manchester requires drivers to be at least 21 to rent a car. However, young drivers can expect an extra charge and some choice restrictions. Many companies impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the standard rental rate. This covers the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car classes (like mid-size and compact) are available to young motorists, restrictions generally apply to premium and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Greater Manchester?
While terms and conditions can differ between rental car outlets, the two main things you'll need are a valid driver's licence and a credit card. You don't need to take out auto insurance with your rental provider. However, proof of your own coverage may be necessary.
Can I drive in Greater Manchester with my U.S. Driver's license?
Yes, your valid U.S. License is enough for you to legally drive in Greater Manchester. But if you're the type of holiday maker who likes to cover all your bases, get yourself an International Driving Permit. Apply for this document a few weeks before you take off.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Greater Manchester?
Expedia makes it a snap to score an affordable long-term rental in Greater Manchester. Simply visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your details and compare your choices.
Where can I find a Greater Manchester car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver looking for a rental in Greater Manchester, we recommend reading the terms and conditions of the various car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be additional fees if you're between 21 and 24 years old. To avoid any surprise fees and charges on pickup, make sure you know what those charges are if they apply to you.
