Unlike many other places in the United States, when booking a Budget car rental in Lansing, you only need to be 18 years old and have a valid driver’s license. However, under-25 fees may apply to young drivers, and you may be restricted in the type of car you can drive. Check with your agent to see if these fees will apply to you and if there are ways to help alleviate these fees or bring the cost down, such as a good driving record or a full auto insurance policy on your personal vehicle.
Since Lansing is located a bit farther away from other main Michigan cities you may want to visit, like Grand Rapids or Detroit, you may want to consider a compact, hybrid, or economy car for better gas mileage. While SUVs may offer more room for your luggage or passengers, a smaller vehicle can help you save by not using as much gas, particularly when driving on Interstate 96. Consider traffic as well as the time of day when visiting bigger cities, as places like Detroit can become very congested. Traffic may also become congested in Lansing from time to time, depending on Michigan State University events like football games.
When booking a Budget car rental in Lansing, don’t forget to join the Budget Fastbreak Program, the company’s loyalty program. This can make picking up and dropping off a breeze by helping you skip the long lines and get to where you’re going faster, and best of all, it’s free to join. You can also score quality deals from Budget by joining the program, which will save you time and money.
