Renting a Car Without an Airline ID, or for Family and Friends

Check who qualifies, which documents are accepted and who must collect the car before booking for yourself, a partner, family or friends.

The Crew

Last Update 1ヶ月前

Car rental eligibility and document requirements depend on the selected offer, provider and pickup location. Do not assume that a crew rate transfers to family or friends, or that one type of airline ID is the only accepted evidence.

Choose a booking route

For a new crew rental, start with the ACD Alamo page. Check availability at your destination, eligible roles and the required booking and verification steps.
If the crew offer does not fit your trip, explore the worldwide car rental comparison. Compare the selected provider’s eligibility, documents and terms before booking; a comparison route does not remove normal rental requirements.

When family or friends are travelling

  • Check whether the offer permits accompanying family or a booking collected by someone else.
  • Confirm who must be named as the main driver and present at pickup.
  • Check whether an additional driver is allowed, which documents they need and any charge.
  • If the terms do not clearly cover your situation, ask the booking provider before paying.

Check the full rental requirements

Review the driving licence, accepted employment evidence, payment card, deposit, driver age, fuel policy, mileage, insurance and cancellation terms. Confirm the total price and pickup requirements for your actual booking.
More practical guidance is in our car rental tips and tricks. For an existing booking or an urgent pickup issue, contact the provider shown on your confirmation before changing your reservation.
Save the ACD pages as starting points and check current terms for each trip. Some links are affiliate links, so ACD may earn a commission when you book through them.
