Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Catalina Island car reservation?
We know that having the freedom to change your plans is important. That’s why many reservations offer a complete refund if you cancel six hours prior to picking up the car. It’s still good to scan your policy though because there are some exclusions. If you can’t find the answer there, head to our Customer Service Portal.
How do I find the best car rental deals in Catalina Island with Expedia?
Expedia makes it a cinch to compare prices, offers and providers, and to check reviews. Combine your Catalina Island car rental with hotel or flight bookings to make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Catalina Island?
Drivers 21 and over can go road-tripping around Catalina Island in a rental vehicle. If you’re a young renter, a daily surcharge applies. You’ll generally have fewer car categories to pick from, such as economy and compact, and may also be required to purchase inclusive insurance. Always enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to find out if any surcharges or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Catalina Island?
The main things are your driver’s license and a credit card in your name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of other coverage if you choose to opt out. We recommend checking with your supplier to avoid any problems.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Catalina Island?
Expedia makes it a snap to book a long-term rental in Catalina Island. Just visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your details and compare your choices.
Where can I find a Catalina Island car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether you can rent a vehicle if you are under 25 in Catalina Island often depends on the rental company you select. Some outlets have a surcharge for young customers aged between 21 and 24 years, yet others may not have any additional costs for this age group. It’d be wise to go through the terms and conditions of your chosen rental dealer to escape any surprise charges at the rental desk.
