Cross Border

Conditional:

Depending on which countries to bring the rental cars to, policies differ:
Mexico, Canada
A vehicle can be driven across the Canadian border at any time, no matter what location it was rented from. It is recommended to have PERS coverage when using vehicle in cross border rentals for the US and Canada. The renter must have a valid driver's license and rental record to cross the border into Canada. Canadian law does require that everyone entering the country have a passport, so everyone in the vehicle must have the proper identification. If a renter (including a Canadian resident) is driving a U.S. rented (and licensed in the U.S.) vehicle to Canada, it can only be driven across the border for up to 30 days unless an extension is requested from Customs at the time of entry.

    After using five or six car rental companies in the US, T is undoubtedly the worst. Starting with the rogue-like booking method: the price was cheap when booking, but later they forcefully added third-party insurance, claiming you can't drive without it. Then why allow bookings in the first place? As for the car quality, this company probably has the worst in the entire US. Not a single car had less than 10,000 miles, and they were all the lowest configurations.

    Great service! Once you complete the paperwork, they tell you the parking spot number. You just go upstairs to the parking lot and drive away on your own. However, the waiting time is incredibly long! There are more people here than at other rental companies nearby. It seems to be because their system shows it as within walking distance from the airport, which it is not! All rental company counters are outside New Orleans Airport and require a shuttle bus to a unified rental building.
