Wondering how you as an operator can help move the needle on issues impacting car rental? Here are the top tips experts shared about getting involved in car rental fleet advocacy at the 2021 ICRS — and which issues are at the forefront of ACRA’s agenda.
ACRA joined with a group of tourism groups to develop guidelines to help reopen some international travel to and from the United States. The association also announces new and renewing members.
The American Car Rental Association’s July update also includes information on a car rental survey, updates on state legislation, and a list of new operator and vendor members.
The American Car Rental Association’s June update also includes support for federal funding of EV charging infrastructure, a plan to reopen international tourism, and a push to urge Congress to address vehicle data access legislation.
The American Car Rental Association updates this month’s initiatives and welcomes new and returning members.
The American Car Rental Association’s April update includes information on airport MAG relief, vehicle cybersecurity guidance, COVID-19 liability protection bills, and $2 billion in unused grants — along with an April Fool’s joke.
The plan calls for 80% of those funds to be set aside for small airport concessionaires. The bill also provides $10 billion in funding for state small business support programs.
According to data by the Federal Aviation Administration, car rental company concession fees paid to airports were down 66% in 2020 ($1.97 billion in 2019, $654 million in 2020).
ACRA members purchase one in every eight new light-duty vehicles sold in the U.S., which emphasizes car rental’s stakeholder position in the conversion to zero-emission vehicles.
ACRA seeks the funds to allow airports to provide minimum annual guarantees (MAGs) and rent relief for airport concessionaires.
