Southwest Car Rental

Expedia loves making travel easier for everyone, so the answer is yes. Secure your Southwest rental car with our Book Now Pay Later option and you won’t have to pay until it’s time to pick up your wheels. While you’re at the counter, the car rental company will also put a hold on your credit card for the deposit. Prefer to get your payment out of the way? It’s easy to settle the bill at the time of reservation too. No matter where the road leads you, Expedia’s quality vehicles will help you explore at your own pace.

We’ve all been faced with times when even our best-laid plans get upended. That’s why we give your money back on most prepaid reservations if you advise us a minimum of six hours before the pickup time. Remember to double-check the rental agreement — there are some cases where it’s not offered. Found nothing there? Our Customer Service Portal is always here to help.

In Southwest, the rule is 21 years of age and over. Most outlets will charge additional fees for young drivers, which can vary based on the rental location. Rental policies for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as large SUVs, and require inclusive insurance to be taken out. It’s always a good idea to read the fine print before choosing your wheels.

Before you can hop behind the wheel in Southwest, you’ll need a driver’s license and a credit card that matches the name on your license. If you decline to take out the company’s insurance policy, you may also have to provide proof of your own coverage. Rules can vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you choose a rental company.

Whether or not you can rent a car under the age of 25 in Southwest often depends on the rental provider you select. Some businesses apply a surcharge for young drivers between 21 and 24 years old, yet other companies may not apply any extra costs for this age range. It’d be good to read the terms and conditions of your preferred car rental dealer to avoid extra costs at the rental desk.
