Where is Budget Car Rental at JFK Airport?

John F. Kennedy International Airport does not have a Budget counter in any arriving terminals. All customers, including Fastbreak customers, must take the courtesy AirTrain shuttle from the arriving terminals to Station C/Federal Circle. The Budget counter is located about 50 feet away from the AirTrain stop—and with our wide selection of excellent vehicles, we will have cheap car rental at JFK to meet your needs.

What is the best type of car to rent in New York City?

When you need to rent a car, Budget can help! Our van rentals have plenty of room for large tourist groups visiting Times Square, but the best type of car to enjoy the upbeat Marquee nightclub is a luxury car rental.

Van Rental

You can’t beat the comfort and efficiency of a van rental. Get a 12- or 15-passenger van rental for large groups, such as corporate teambuilding events at Sunset Terrace, or get a Kia Sedona or other minivan rental to take your family to the 9/11 Memorial.

SUV Rental

Get an SUV rental to handle the versatile terrain in New York state. You’ll stay comfortable in a Ford Escape as you navigate the busy city streets, and you’ll need the storage capacity of a Chevrolet Suburban if you go kayaking on the Hudson River.

Long-Term Car Rental

Get a long-term car rental if you’ll be in New York for more than a few weeks. Our cheap monthly car rentals are perfect for people who just moved to New York City, for extended vacationers, and for city people looking to take a trip to the country.

Luxury Car Rental

New York’s upbeat nightlife, lavish nightclubs, and elegant shopping destinations are the perfect excuse to get a luxury car rental. Whether you prefer taking a convertible car rental down 5th Avenue or a Chevrolet Camaro to the classy Gramercy Tavern, be sure to make a reservation early.
