Tips for renting a car in Tulsa

Browse helpful tips for renting a car in Tulsa including age restrictions, car type suggestions and more. Tips were last updated on October 31, 2024.
  • If your intended destination is Tulsa International Airport (TUL), you will easily access Tulsa car rentals at the airport. Upon arrival, you'll find the car rental counters inside the airport terminal at the center concourse of TUL. The counters are operated by several rental providers, including Dollar, Thrifty, Hertz, Budget, and Payless. Present identification at the counter of your chosen rental provider, and you will receive the rental agreement. The counter agent will then provide you with the keys and directions to your rental vehicle. Furthermore, the rental cars are within walking distance from the rental desks. Proceed outside and descend to the garage via the stairs or elevator.
  • To get from Tulsa International Airport to Downtown Tulsa, you will need to drive the distance of about 9 miles in around 15 minutes. Depart the airport's parking garage with your rental car and take Airport Drive northeast and keep left. Merge on to the OK-11 W and continue for about 3 miles. Follow the signs for Downtown Tulsa and then take the Gilcrease Expressway in the direction of US-75 South. Continue on US-75 S, remaining on the right-side lanes, and exit at 7th St. for Downtown. Continue to E. 7th Street and make a right onto Boston Avenue.
  • Tulsa has a comprehensive network of toll roadways. Toll roads are a vital component of the city's transportation infrastructure, serving to alleviate traffic congestion and maintain the city's extensive road network. The Creek Turnpike, one of the toll roads in Tulsa, is a significant east-west route that connects various key areas of the city and provides an efficient alternative to the frequently traveled non-toll highways. In addition, the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority plays a crucial role in facilitating travel between Tulsa and neighboring states via the Will Rogers Turnpike. Generally, toll rates are calculated based on the distance traveled, and electronic toll collection systems, such as PikePass, are utilized to ensure efficient and smooth transactions.
