Car Rental HPN —
Reserve Now, Drive Immediately

All rental counters are inside the main terminal structure, positioned in the baggage claim sector.

The vehicle lot (Lot A) is situated approximately 30 yards behind the terminal — no shuttle service is necessary.

Look for signage directing you to the ground transportation area immediately after collecting your luggage.

This arrangement makes HPN one of the most convenient airport rental locations in the Westchester County and greater New York area.

All six concession counters at HPN operate from 8:00 AM through 11:00 PM, seven days a week.

If your return flight lands after closing time, an after-hours key drop box is accessible near the counter entrance around the clock.

The key drop system is available for vehicle returns only — new rental pickup requires a staffed counter visit during regular hours.

For early-morning or late-night arrivals requiring a vehicle, consider reserving ahead and scheduling pickup on the following business morning to get the best budget rate.

New York State sets the minimum age for a renter at 18 years old at this airport location.

Renters aged 18–20 are assessed an additional $84 per day young driver surcharge.

Those between 21 and 24 years of age are charged a $35 per day underage driver fee.

Drivers 25 and above receive standard pricing with no supplemental age-related charges.

All authorized driver information must be provided at the rental counter. Additional drivers typically incur a per-day fee.

Debit cards bearing a Visa or Mastercard logo are accepted for renters aged 25 and older, subject to credit verification at the counter.

A major credit card is still required for the authorization hold placed at vehicle pickup.

Prepaid cards and gift cards are not accepted as a form of credit identification at the rental desk.

At airport locations, proof of a return airline ticket is also required when the renter uses a debit card.

The same card used for any online prepayment must be physically presented by the renter at counter pickup.

All HPN rental vehicles are equipped for electronic toll payment and are compatible with E-ZPass transponders.

Using cashless toll lanes incurs a daily toll service charge of $5.95–$6.95, plus the actual toll amounts incurred during your rental.

You may decline the toll service and pay tolls directly at cash lanes, or mount your own personal E-ZPass device instead.

This is especially relevant for drivers traversing Westchester County highways, the Tappan Zee Bridge, or routes into Manhattan.

Budget-minded renters using only free roads or cash toll plazas can opt out of the toll service entirely.

Securing your reservation 1–2 weeks before travel consistently delivers the most competitive per-day pricing.

Walk-up counter pricing on the day of travel can run 20–40% higher than advance reservations for the same vehicle class.

Our HPN economy class starts at $34 per day with an advance booking — a genuinely budget-friendly option for Westchester travelers.

Data from our 2024 booking records shows the lowest average daily rates occur for reservations made 10–14 days prior to pickup.

Supplemental Liability Protection is an optional add-on offered at the counter for an additional daily charge (typically $15–$17/day).

If accepted, SLP provides the renter and authorized drivers with up to $300,000 combined single limit for third-party liability claims.

The purchase of SLP is entirely optional and is not required to complete your rental.

Your existing personal auto insurance policy may already provide equivalent coverage — verify with your insurer before accepting.

One-way rentals to alternate drop-off locations are available through each of the six operators at HPN.

Common one-way routes include HPN to JFK, LGA, EWR, Manhattan, or Fairfield County, CT.

One-way drop fees vary by operator and distance — select "Return to a different location" in the booking widget above to view applicable rates.

All one-way rental agreements must be arranged at the time of reservation, not at the counter on pickup day.

No shuttle service is required.

Unlike larger airports such as JFK or EWR where rental facilities are in a separate building accessed by shuttle, HPN keeps everything in one location.

The vehicle lot is just 30 yards from the main terminal exit — a 60-second walk with your luggage.

This on-site arrangement is one of the key advantages travelers cite when choosing HPN over larger NYC-area airports for rental pickup.

A valid driver's license is the primary requirement for every renter at the HPN counter.

An international driving permit is required alongside the original license for renters from countries where the license is not in English.

Your booking confirmation and the credit or debit card used to make the reservation are also required at pickup.

If using a debit card, a second form of government-issued identification is typically required in addition to the license.

Yes — infant, toddler, and booster child safety seats are available as optional add-ons at all six HPN concession counters.

Seats typically incur a daily charge of $12–$15 per day depending on the operator and seat type.

New York law mandates child safety seats for all passengers under age 8 or under 57 inches in height.

Request your seat during the online booking process or at the counter — advance requests help ensure availability.

Reservations may be cancelled or modified free of charge up to 24 hours before your scheduled pickup time.

Changes to dates, vehicle class, or pick-up time are processed through your booking confirmation email or by calling our reservations line.

At time of any change, current rates, taxes, and fees apply to the modified reservation.

No-show fees may apply if the renter fails to collect the vehicle without prior cancellation notification.

2024 data shows over 94% of HPN renters with advance reservations pick up successfully within the first hour of their selected window.
