Good to know

  • Age requirements often vary by company (and even car type), so know the rules before you book. Some suppliers in Canada may rent to younger drivers for an additional fee. If you fall outside the typical age bracket, simply uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to explore your options.

  • Planning a trip with the kids? Car seat requirements vary from one place to another, and the best setup may depend on their age, weight and height. Confirm whether you need to add one to your YQX car hire booking.

  • You'll likely be asked for these three things when collecting your rental car: a current driver's licence, extra photo ID, and a credit card with room to cover the excess. Debit cards aren't commonly accepted. The full set of requirements will be laid out in your booking.

  • Driving in Canada may feel unfamiliar if it's your first time. Keep in mind you'll need to stay on the right side of the road.

  • Local speed limits can vary, but it's typically around 45kph in built-up areas and 95kph or so on highways. Always obey the road signs.

  • The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit in Canada is 0.08%. Because alcohol affects everyone differently, the only way to be certain you're safe to drive is to skip the drinks.

  • The Canadian dollar (CAD) is the currency you'll be using for day-to-day purchases and activities. Pay by card when it's possible, and keep some cash handy when electronic payments aren't an option.

Drive smarter from the start

  • With a YQX car hire, you're the boss when it comes to where you go. If central Gander is your first stop, it's around 6 kilometres northwest of the airport and a journey of about 10 minutes.

  • The drive from Gander to the city centre during rush hour can take up to 15 minutes.
