Europcar Car Rental at Reagan National Airport

Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport is one of the largest airports in the United States of America, even though it does not handle international flights, and is recognized by its IATA code of DCA. It is located close to the downtown area of Washington, D.C, and in Arlington County. It is also an airport found in the state of Virginia, although Washington falls under the District of Columbia. The airport has many options for ground transportation available, including public buses and trains, and arriving passengers could also hire a car from one of the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport car rental companies, such as Europcar. Europcar is popular for their reasonable car hire rates and their excellent selection of vehicles for hire.

The car hire companies at this airport are found in one of the parking garages (Parking Garage A), and are open during most hours of the day and later evening. They are located on the first floor of the building, however, club members of the various companies may be able to go straight to the second or third floors to collect their vehicles. There are three terminal buildings at the airport, and from each, passengers will need to take a free shuttle bus to the parking garage and car hire companies. The buses leave from outside the terminals, on the baggage claim level, and are frequently available. They are able to seat a reasonable number of passengers, as well as carry all luggage items of the passengers. Shuttles are able to serve passengers in wheelchairs as well, as they are equipped with a wheelchair lift. The entire airport can also be accessed by persons with mobility challenges.

Persons who have hired a car from Europcar at this rental location should be aware that they will need to collect their car from Europcar’s partner, National Car Hire. There are National car rental counters on the first floor of the parking garage, and the vehicles are parked nearby. Always try to make an advanced reservation for car hire, as this often secures lower rental rates. Online is considered as most convenient for the majority of travellers.

Vehicles for hire at the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport car hire companies are arranged into various categories, and are hired accordingly. Cars found in the Economy, Compact and Midsize categories are similar to the Chevrolet Aveo, Nissan Versa and Toyota Corolla, and are the smaller cars hired by Europcar, however, they still offer room for up to five passengers and a couple of luggage items. They come with the lowest car rental rates as well, and are therefore popular choices. Larger sedans are found in the Standard and Fullsize vehicle categories, and include the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Impala.

Several SUV categories are available as well, such as Midsize SUV, Standard SUV, SUV Hybrid, Fullsize SUV, Premium SUV, Luxury SUV and Specialty SUV. The cars available from these categories include the Ford Escape, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Chevrolet Tahoe, Chevrolet Suburban, Lincoln MKX, Lincoln Navigator and the Hummer H3. The larger SUVs can seat up to seven passengers, and come with cruise control, power locks and windows, automatic transmissions, air bags, CD players and ABS brakes. Cars for seven are also found in the Minivan category (Dodge Grand Caravan), while those that are ideal for up to fifteen passengers are available from the Passenger Van category, one of which is the Chevrolet Express. Additional cars for hire from this rental location include the Dodge Journey, GMC Acadia, Toyota Avalon, Cadillac DTS, Jeep Wrangler and Chevrolet Colorado.

All cars may be possible to arrange as Europcar one way hires, and with every rental, customers may select several items of equipment, for example, child seats and satellite navigation systems. Both of these items could be an essential part of a trip in Washington D.C. From the Reagan National Airport, one way hire services arranged can be delivered to other airports in the vicinity, or to one of Europcar’s downtown locations. Cars are generally not permitted to leave the country, but may travel into other American states. Cross-border rentals may require a special arrangement.

All items of equipment hired will incur additional charges that will be over and above the usual car rental fees, however, Europcar’s hand controls for disabled drivers are free, and may be used by persons with a lower limb disability. The device is only available for certain types of vehicles, therefore it is recommended to be requested in advance of your arrival at Reagan National Airport. Hand controls do not operate vehicle functions such as windshield wipers and blinkers, but only the brake and accelerator pedals.

All primary renters at this location will need to be at least 21 years of age, and should be in possession of a valid drivers license (US issued or Canadian-endorsed) and a major credit card, for example, American Express, MasterCard, Visa or Discover.
