Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Shannon car reservation?
We understand that plans can change at the last minute. That's why many prepaid rentals allow for your money back if you cancel six hours in advance of picking up the car. Your cancellation policy should contain all the information you need. If you can't find the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is always accessible.
What types of cars can I rent in Shannon?
Cost-effective, easy to handle and fuel-efficient, it's hardly surprising compact vehicles are the most in-demand rental type in Shannon. Drive around this city in one of these and you'll be able to park in tight spaces and easily dart around busy streets. A compact is perfect for city escapes or short road trips. But they're not your only options. Go even smaller with an economy ride or bigger with a full-size or premium — the choice is yours!

  • Madison is around 105 kilometres from Shannon. Popular tourist attractions like Camp Randall Stadium deserve to be high on your must-see list while you're in town.
  • Your next stop? Make it Chicago, which is around 177 kilometres away. Wrigley Field is one local highlight you really shouldn't miss.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Shannon?
You'll need to be 21 and over to sit in the driver's seat of a rental car in Shannon. Bear in mind that young drivers may be restricted to renting from a few car classes, such as compact, economy and medium size. Higher age limits usually apply for premium and specialty vehicles. Most companies will also charge a fee for young renters. Read through the rules before booking and factor any extra fees into your budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Shannon?
Be prepared to present your driver's licence and a credit card at the rental counter. Prior to the pickup date, check with your rental supplier whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of insurance.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Shannon?
Yes, which means you won't need to rebook a rental vehicle mid-holiday. Head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your travel dates and reserve a set of wheels to call your own for the next month or so.
Where can I find a Shannon car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Shannon rental suppliers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years of age, some will charge additional costs. It's handy to know about this in advance so you can plan your budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so it'd be wise to do your research.
