Can I hire a car from Pittsburgh Intl. Airport (PIT)?
You can, and there's plenty of choice. After arriving at Pittsburgh Intl. Airport (PIT), make a beeline for the car hire centre on the Baggage Claim level of the Landside Terminal. Here you can arrange your ride with fantastic companies like Dollar, National and Payless. If you want some more options, also check out Hertz and Avis.
What happens if I need to cancel my Houston car reservation?
No need to worry. You should be eligible for a total refund if you notify us at least six hours ahead of pick-up time. Your itinerary contains information about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all reservations will receive a refund though, so you may want to go over the car's cancellation policy.

How old do you have to be to hire a car in Houston?
In Houston, the requirement is usually 21 and over. Most companies will charge additional fees for young drivers, which can differ based on the rental location. Rental policies for young drivers may include restrictions for certain vehicles, such as luxury cars, and require comprehensive insurance. It's a good idea to read the fine print carefully before choosing your wheels.
What do you need to rent a car in Houston?
Most of the time, all you'll need is a valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name when picking up the keys to your vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you'd prefer to opt out of the company's insurance policy. Requirements are likely to differ between hire companies, so it's a good idea to check before you book.

Where can I find a Houston hire car if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Houston rental providers you're interested in. If you're under 25, some outlets will charge extra fees. It's better to know about this in advance so you can budget accordingly. Every car hire company has its own rules for younger drivers, so do your research.
Can I drive in Houston with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the United States, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the car hire 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 valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for hire cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car hire website before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When hiring a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car hire. Please read the regulations before you book!
