One Way Car Rental FAQs

Pick up your car, hit the road, and just keep going. With a one-way car rental, you’re free to choose your destination, and—the best bit—you don’t need to turn around and return it to the same place. So, if you want a rental car for a long-planned road trip or a quick-fix solution to get you from A to B, CheapTickets is your go-to.


Should I rent a car one way or round trip?

A one-way rental car gives you a convenient, flexible way to rent a vehicle—and it doesn’t pin you to one location. Save time by just dropping the car off in your destination instead of driving all the way back. One-way rental cars are ideal for a house move, kids driving themselves to college, or an epic road trip adventure.
