Absolutely. After you’ve picked up your bags at Charlotte-Douglas Intl. Airport (CLT), you’ll locate the rental car companies at the Rental Car Center in the Level 2 lobby. Book the right ride with Dollar, National or Advantage. Budget and Avis are other suppliers worth taking a look at.

With Expedia, you sure can. Our Book Now Pay Later option makes budgeting for your Charlotte getaway easy. Instead of shelling out upfront, you’ll have the option to pay when it’s time to pick up your car. A hold will then be placed on your credit card for the security deposit. Ready to hit the gas?

No need to stress. You should receive a complete refund if you let us know a minimum of six hours prior to pickup time. Your confirmation contains information about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid rentals will receive a refund though, so it’s a good idea to read through the policy.

The minimum age is 21. But there are some age-related rules you should bear in mind before locking in your wheels in Charlotte. If you’re a younger motorist, many rental providers will charge an additional fee and limit the kinds of vehicles you can rent. The amount of the surcharge, and which age range it applies to, differs between companies. Be sure to compare the rules.

While rules can differ between car rental outlets in Charlotte, the two key things you’ll need are a current driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. You don’t need to take out insurance with your rental company. However, proof of your own coverage may be necessary.

Based on prices within the past seven days, you could’ve sat in the driver’s seat of a rental car for just $17 a day. The second lowest daily rate in Charlotte was $30.
