Browse helpful tips for renting a car in Abilene including age restrictions, car type suggestions and more. Tips were last updated on December 24, 2024.
  • You will likely land at Abilene Regional Airport (ABI) when flying into Abilene. The airport has a few car rental agencies from which you can rent a car, including Hertz, Enterprise, and Avis. The car rental agencies in ABI have their counters in the terminal building at the baggage claim area. The rental agencies' counters are close together, and therefore easy to spot. Once you complete your rental paperwork at any rental agency, you can proceed from the baggage claim area to the parking area for pick-up.
  • To access downtown with your rental vehicle from ABI, exit the airport's parking area outside the terminal building by following the signs to the airport's exit. Head south to Loop 322, leading to the city center. You will merge with Loop 322 or TX-36 Road as you leave ABI. The drive to downtown Abilene should take about 15 to 20 minutes. Stay on the Loop 322, which leads to the heart of downtown Abilene. When approaching the city center, exit Loop 322 and merge onto US-83 or 84, which runs through the city center.
  • To explore beyond Abilene city limits, you can drive your rental car to neighboring cities, including Fort Worth, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, Lubbock, Wichita Falls, and Amarillo. Ensure you inform your rental company of your plan to drive past the city limits to other cities to obtain a permit from the company.
