How old do you need to be to rent a car in Florida?
A few friends and I are going to fly down to Miami for two weeks, but we’re thinking about taking a weekend trip down to Key West. I’m 22, so I just want to make sure that renting a car is a possibility before I book a hotel. How old do you need to be to rent a car in Florida?

You only need to be 21 years old to rent a car in
Florida
. However, you’re typically subject to fees and restrictions due to your age. Most rental car companies assess a young driver fee for those under 25 and may restrict the type of car you can rent.Call ahead to your preferred rental company to find out more about fees and restrictions on car rentals for young drivers. Although you can purchase
rental car insurance
from the rental company, it’s usually far overpriced. Plus, your car insurance policy will typically cover rentals. Before you plan your trip, review your car insurance policy and shop for better rates with the
Jerry
app. With the money you save, you might even be able to spring for the five-star treatment on your trip.Jerry is a
