Driving & Hiring at Metro Airport

Most of the car rental companies in America have four basic rates, where you can save when you pre-book for 3 extra drivers, Sat Nav and a tank of fuel.

In Detroit, we use a number of suppliers like, Alamo, Avis, Budget, Hertz, Dollar, National, Sixt and Thrifty, with some of them offering a choice of four pre-pay rates, to include:- extra drivers, Sat Nav and a tank of fuel if needed.

USA & Extra Drivers

A slightly complicated part of hiring a car in the USA, can be the extra drivers. In California, it is the state law, that all drivers are included in the basic rate, although only Dollar says this in their terms. So now, you can book with Alamo or National and insist they include extra drivers in the cost. Budget include an extra driver on all their rates, regardless of where collected.

Included in America

Provided the usual travel insurance is taken out for the USA, no extra insurance cover is needed. However, this will not stop you being offered additional, optional, insurance, which you can decline, or go back and cancel within 24 hours.

Licence

Needs to have been held for one year, and full and clean, but if have endorsements, please let us know, so we can check with supplier.
