Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Shannon car reservation?
We've all been faced with times when even our best-laid plans get upended. That's why we offer a full refund on many prepaid bookings if you advise us a minimum of six hours in advance of the collection time. Don't forget to double-check the cancellation policy — there are some instances where it's not included. Found nothing there? Our Customer Service Portal is always available to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Shannon?
The most in-demand rental in Shannon is an intermediate. It offers more comfort and room than a compact vehicle, and has ample space in the trunk. But you'll still be able to get around busy city streets with ease. Why not take a look at a few more options? Economy, standard and premium are some other rental classes.
Where can I go on a road trip from Shannon?
When you've covered all the interesting places in Shannon, there's a lot more to explore in the region. Pick up the keys to a rental car, stow your luggage in the trunk and get going. Here are some road trips you're sure to love:

  • Make your way to Hobart for an excellent sightseeing experience. Roughly 105 kilometres from Shannon, it has many inspiring sights like Cascade Brewery.
  • Around 80 kilometres away, Launceston is also a favourite with travellers. Set aside time to experience Cataract Gorge while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love visiting this thriving city.

What do you need to rent a car in Shannon?
Most rental companies will require two things — your driver's licence and credit card. If you'd like to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Shannon?
Head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and then secure a ride that suits. Whether you're staying put in Shannon or plan to journey beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at an amazing rate.
Where can I find a Shannon car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so be prepared to do a little research. Managed to find a Shannon outlet that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Awesome! Just bear in mind that some companies charge extra fees to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're considering should have all the details you need.
