10 tips to save on your car hire in and around Newport

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you're in need of an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to pinpoint the ideal option for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, making it wise to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you're likely to lock in lower rates and have a wider selection, particularly during peak travel seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles typically come at a lower rental cost and are easier to manoeuvre in crowded areas. Mid-size cars strike a good balance between affordability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be available to them. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age restrictions prior to booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements may stipulate a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you'll need to return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most advantageous option. Others might provide full-to-empty or prepaid fuel choices, which are acceptable as well; just ensure you return the vehicle empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car from airports often incurs a surcharge, though the added convenience might justify the extra cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car hire companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and offers peace of mind in the event of unforeseen circumstances during your trip. Adding car hire insurance is straightforward when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning extensive road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to avoid incurring extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's licence is necessary for renting a car.

Can I drive in Newport with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the U.S, then you might 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., be aware that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the car needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Other things you should know about hire cars in the U.S. Are:
  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the car hire company before you go to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your car hire. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
