National car rental at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport: What you need to know
Transmission: Use the 'Transmission' filter to choose between 'Automatic' and 'Manual.' Automatic changes gears for you, while Manual is the traditional stick shift. Most rental companies offer both.
Fuel policy: Skip the extra costs by choosing a vehicle with a 'Fair fuel policy.' You drive away with a full tank and bring it back full, meaning you only pay for fuel you've used.
Mileage limits: Rentals with 'Unlimited mileage' give you the freedom to explore without worrying about added charges. Search for this option under the 'Policies' filter and travel freely.
Age requirements: To rent a vehicle in the United States, you usually have to be at least 21 years old. Some locations may offer rentals to younger drivers for a higher rate, so always check the terms before securing your wheels.
Side of the road: Don't forget to stick to the right side of the road in the United States.
Speed limits: Make sure you follow the local speed limits. Usually that's 40kph in built-up areas and around 110kph on highways, unless signs say otherwise.
Required documents: As a general rule, bring your physical driver's licence and another form of photo ID when collecting your National car rental. Your booking will lay out the exact list.
Deposits and credit card: Providers commonly place a pre-authorised hold on a credit card for the security deposit. Debit cards are rarely accepted at pickup, so it's best to have a credit card with you.
Insurance: Excess insurance isn't mandatory, but can be a real lifesaver if something goes wrong. Not all insurance policies are equal, so check before booking.
Add ons: Nifty extras like a reverse camera and GPS unit can make your National car rental a smoother experience.
