Car hire for under 21’s

Car hire for under 21’s

Postby Super Simon » Wed Jul 01, 2020 11:07 pm

Evening ,

My nephew who has been driving for 3 years now ( aged 20 ) has asked if I could find him a car hire firm based at Alicante Airport that will rent for his age group when he’s over in a week or so ?
If anyone knows of a rental firm that could help i’d be grateful ?

Thank you

Simon

I may be wrong here but I do not believe that it is possble for anyone under 21 to hire a car.
Try calling Anthony Ralph at Aqua Car in Rojales on 966 71 34 09 for advice, he is always very helpful.

Hi in Spain nearly all car hire companies insist that the hirers are 21+ years and then they are subject to a " young driver's excess " which is very hefty. Having been in the business for over 30 years I would never take on the risk too much paperwork if anything happens to the hirers.

Morning all ;-),

As mentioned in previous replies I doubt very much if you’ll find a car rental company in Spain who will rent to anyone under 21 years of age. Small independent company might as a one off maybe, but the insurance would be astronomical I would’ve thought.

Let us know if he’s successful.

If Beniconnect are up and running again now it only costs around €18pp to the Arches from the airport.

Plenty of international car hire firms like Hertz and Avis will hire to under 21s if they have held a full licence for at least 2 years
