Alamo Car Hire in Allentown

Alamo's counter at Lehigh Valley International Airport (ABE) sits on the first floor of the terminal in the baggage claim area, and because ABE handles far less traffic than Philadelphia or Newark, the walk from the gate to the hire lot is short. Budget around 30 to 45 minutes from deplaning to driving away — completing Alamo's online Accelerated Check-in before you arrive trims that window noticeably. Pennsylvania's major roadways use E-ZPass, an electronic toll system covering highways throughout the Northeast; Alamo vehicles come fitted with a TollPass device that bills tolls automatically, with a per-day convenience fee charged for each day the transponder is used. Without it, pay-by-plate billing adds administrative fees on top of each toll charge, so factor that into your decision at the counter. Alamo operates a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you return the car with the same level you received; fuel in the Allentown area runs roughly US$3.59 per gallon, and the nearest stations to ABE are a short drive from the terminal. A credit card in the primary driver's name is required at pickup — no debit cards are accepted — and Alamo typically places an authorisation hold of around US$300 on standard vehicles. If your licence uses a non-Latin script such as Arabic, Cyrillic, or Chinese characters, bring an International Driving Permit alongside your native licence.
