Car rental FAQs

Find answers to frequently asked questions about car rentals in Omaha, including policies, requirements, and more. FAQs were last updated on March 19, 2024.
  • Can I drive my Omaha rental car to Winnipeg, across the Canadian border?

    Winnipeg is about a 10-hour drive directly north of Omaha. If you want to cross the border into Canada, many car rental agencies will permit this, but you must clear it with them first at the time that you are making your reservation. The agency will need to arrange all appropriate paperwork and insurance. However, be advised that most car rental companies do not allow luxury or exotic cars in their fleet to cross the border. At the Canadian border, you will need to show your driver's license, passport, and Canadian Non-Resident Insurance Card, which you should obtain from the car rental agency.

  • What weather should I be aware of in my Omaha rental car?

    In the winter months, Omaha sees more snow than the national average. Remember to always clear your windows of snow and ice before driving your rental car, and drive more slowly than you usually would, leaving more space between you and other cars on the road. Omaha is also frequently hit with tornadoes, especially in May and June. Seek shelter and do not drive if you hear reports that a tornado is coming. If you are caught in your rental car in a tornado, hunker down below the level of the windows and cover your head with your hands or a blanket. If you can find some place that is lower than the roadway, such as a ditch, abandon the car and lie in the ditch. Do not take shelter under a bridge or an overpass, and do not take shelter beneath the car.

  • Is there an airport in Omaha where I can rent a car?

    Situated just 5 miles north of downtown Omaha, Eppley Airfield Omaha Airport (OMA) provides a great location for securing Omaha rental cars. Once you deplane, you can find the rental car counters in the facility next to the terminal. From baggage claim, go to the Upper Level via escalators and take the North Skywalk to the Rental Car Customer Service Building. Once you have filled out your paperwork and gotten your keys, you can proceed to the cars where they are parked on Level One and Two of the North Garage, which is next door to the Customer Service Building. This is also where you will return your rental car.
