Frequently asked questions

How do I find the best deals on an Anchorage National rental car?

CarRentals.com always tries to get you the lowest price, no matter when you reserve your vehicle. But booking ahead of time can help keep spending low. Make sure to not add an additional driver and read the mileage policy to avoid any unexpected fees.

What do I need have with me when I pick up my car in Anchorage?

Make sure to carry with you your driver's license and a credit card in your name.

How old do I have to be to rent a car in Anchorage?

Most suppliers in Anchorage set the minimum age to rent a car at 21. Some rentals, especially higher category vehicles (luxury, SUVs, etc.), may have an added fee if you are under 25. Take time to review National's policy to find out if there is an additional cost for you.

What kind of National rental car should I get for my trip to Anchorage?

That all depends on your needs and what activities you want to do in Anchorage. Compact or economy vehicles are ideal for short commutes and are easier to park. If you are traveling with family or friends, then a sedan or SUV will have more room for everyone's luggage and be a more comfortable ride. Those looking for a dash of luxury on their Anchorage trip can choose a higher-end category like an Audi A4 or Cadillac XTS or similar.

Does the United States require car insurance?

In the United States you do need to have insurance before you rent. Although many of the major card issuers, like Visa and MasterCard, give some coverage, there are usually restrictions. For example, they may not cover your rental car if you book a larger or luxury vehicle. Make sure to check credit card issuer's policy before you decide. Otherwise, as a U.S. citizen, you can also add on Collision Damage Coverage through CarRentals.com at checkout.

Does National require a deposit at the time of booking my rental car?

National requires a deposit when you book your rental. National will block the deposit on your credit once you book your car for your trip. Please note that the deposit will vary greatly based on the model and make of the car.

What is the fuel policy on my National car rental?

We suggest a full tank policy. You pick up your National rental with full tank, and you should bring it back it topped off. If you want to keep your expenses lower, it is best to fill up your tank before you bring the car back to National. Stations near or around airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.

Do I need unlimited miles when I rent a car in Anchorage?

Anchorage has enough to keep you entertained, but you may want to head to nearby cities to see what else Alaska has to offer. You can explore the rest of the area free of mileage limits after you've gone out in Anchorage's downtown or gone out in Anchorage's downtown.

Can I get a one-way rental from National?

National offers one-way rentals in most cases. You may find it more convenient to return your rental car at another National. Don't forget there is typically an additional charge when you pick one-way.
