Under 21 car rental restrictions at New Orleans Airport

Certain companies make it possible to rent a car at the age of 21 at New Orleans Airport under special conditions. One of them is the limitation of the list of available vehicle classes. Higher categories may not be available due to higher market value and, as a result, greater potential financial risk for the agency. Consider what restrictions different providers apply to underage renters.

Hertz. Young drivers can pick up any model from economy to SUV classes. On the other hand, vehicles from the Dream, Prestige, and Adrenaline Collections are subject to the age restriction, and therefore not available.
Dollar/Thrifty. When you book a rental car under 21 at New Orleans Airport with Dollar or Thrifty, you get access to the majority of vehicle classes, from compact autos to SUVs. Specialty categories such as the StyleSeries are not available.
Fox. This company allows under 21s to rent most vehicle classes. However, the Camaro SS Hardtop, Camaro SS Convertible, and Hemi Charger fall under age restrictions and require a minimum driver age of 25.
