Rent a Car for Your Summer Road Trip

Nearly 100 million people are planning family vacations this year and, this summer, AAA has found that two-thirds of leisure travelers (64 percent) plan to take vacations as the weather warms and the kids are out of school.

The great American road trip continues to be a major draw for travelers with about half getting ready to pack their cars for a road trip this year—but what if your car isn’t road trip ready?

Don’t let expensive repairs get in the way of your summer travel. Enterprise makes it easy with deals that are perfect for road trippers.

MORE Car Rental & Rail

Weekend car rental specials make renting a car from Friday to Monday fun and affordable. There are a number of different routes around the U.S. that are easy to undertake in just four days, including exploring the California Coast, visiting the Florida Keys or Washington, D.C., to New York City.

Road trippers looking for an early summer escape can also take advantage of Enterprise’s Florida One-Way Special. Travelers can rent a car one way out of Florida for as low as $24.95 per day, excluding taxes, fees and surcharges between now and May 31, 2019.

Going long-haul? Travelers can even rent cars with Enterprise for a month or more. Enterprise has its Month or More Program for long-term rentals for those looking to travel longer distances. The program includes pick-up serve and 24-hour roadside assistance is available at more than 7,600 neighborhood and airport locations worldwide in over 85 countries.

Enterprise is also a good resource for road trip planning with handy guides for popular trips around the country as well as helpful tips for travelers booking rental cars for a road trip.

One of the most important things about rental car bookings, especially if you are not picking up a car at the airport, is to check the hours of the branch location. Neighborhood locations have variable hours on nights and weekends so make sure you arrive during operating hours.

Enterprise offers options for both one-way and roundtrip rentals. Plan your schedule accordingly and make sure, if you are driving roundtrip, you have enough time to return to the rental location. For some journeys, one-way rentals may be best for a longer, more extensive experience.

Travelers should also watch out for mileage restrictions. Depending on the car class a traveler selects, there could be a limited number of miles before incurring a fee per mile.

One of the most important things to remember when choosing a car is to pick one that is right for you. Don’t just make sure there are enough seats for every member of the group. Renters should also make sure that there is enough space for luggage, that they have the required number of car seats, proper insurance and money for tolls.
