KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Arlington

  • A car rental in Arlington will make your stay more convenient and flexible. Renting a car would especially be ideal in Arlington as the region doesn’t have an extensive public transportation system. With a rental car, you can visit the numerous attractions in North Arlington, such as Six Flags Over Texas and River Legacy Parks, as well as sites in rural Arlington, including the fun-filled Triple T Stables outside the city.
  • Arlington Municipal Airport, Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, and Dallas Love Field are the airports close to Arlington. Arlington Municipal Airport is only 5 miles from the city center, but as it is a reliever airport for the other two, it doesn’t have a Car Rental Center. Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, located 16 miles from Arlington, allows you easy access to Arlington car rentals. Its Car Rental Center features various companies, including Budget, Avis, Dollar, and Hertz, which you book through KAYAK. Getting to the center is easy as a Rental Car shuttle bus passes by the pick-up area on the lower-level terminal every 10-15min. Dallas Love Field is 26 miles driving distance from Arlington and has Car Rental Center onsite. The center operates in the hallway leading to baggage claim and has counters for companies like Hertz, Avis, Dollar, Budget, and Enterprise. For increased comfort, a Rental Car shuttle passes by every few minutes and gets you to the lower transportation levels.
  • Arlington prides itself in an established network of highways. Major expressways that allow you in and out of Arlington include Tom Landry Freeway, Texas-360 Highway, Pioneer Parkway, Interstate 20, and Highway 287. Numerous other roads stem from the major ones to help you maneuver the city with ease. While driving, keep an eye out for jaywalkers. Jaywalking is illegal in Texas but remains fairly common.
  • The morning rush hour along major Arlington roads starts at around 7am and lasts for about 2h. It features relatively heavy traffic running northbound on Texas-360 Highway that peaks after approximately thirty minutes but declines steadily afterward. In the afternoon, the rush hour begins at about 3pm. You may have to keep off Highway 360 in the afternoon as it has characteristic heavy traffic that runs southbound. If you are planning to drive to the airport during rush hour, give yourself extra time to arrive on time.
  • Like most cities in the United States, drivers of cheap car rentals in Arlington will pay tolls for certain roads during their time in the city. If you’re renting a vehicle from Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW), you will encounter toll booths within your drive from the airport to Arlington, depending on your route. The most common route from DFW to downtown Arlington, the International Parkway to TX-80 W/E Division Street, requires tolls on the International Parkway Road. Moreover, Interstate 30 and Interstate 20 in Arlington also need tolls. They are part of the State Highway 360 passing in south Arlington. Toll payments are made using transponders like TollTag or TxTag. Pay by Plate is also an optional form of payment if you don’t have a transponder.
  • Dallas Love Field Airport and DFW are not the only available rental locations for cheap car rentals in Arlington. There are more rental providers within the city, both in the north and south, if you’re accessing the city via road. If you’re accessing Arlington from the south, the closest rental center will be at South Cooper Street. Onsite providers here include Avis and Budget. If you’re accessing Arlington from the north, the rental car center at East Abram Street will be closer. Downtown Arlington also has a rental center, with Enterprise as one of the providers.
  • Aggressive driving in Arlington, such as failing to adhere to certain road and traffic rules, is illegal. For instance, running a red light at intersections. As such, you need to be attentive at intersections to ensure the safety of every road user. Be more attentive to intersections associated with high red-light violations. These include the intersections of SH 360 and Six Flags Drive, Cooper Street, and W. Park Row Drive, Watson Road and E. Park Row Drive, and Cooper Street and Pioneer Parkway.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Arlington for $37 or less
  • Small rental cars in Arlington are around 38% cheaper than other car types, on average
