Founded in 1947, National is a premium, internationally recognized brand serving the daily rental needs of the frequent airport traveler throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, Latin America and Asia. National also is part of a global strategic alliance with Europcar, creating the world’s largest car rental network.
An industry innovator, National was the first car rental brand to introduce one-way rentals (1954) and the use of computers into the daily reservation process (1966). In 1987, National helped pioneer the corporate-account business by introducing the Emerald Club – the car rental industry’s first comprehensive frequent-renter program. National has been the “Official Car Rental Company of the PGA TOUR and Champions Tour” since 1994, and its partnership with the PGA TOUR extends through 2011.National is owned and operated by St. Louis-based Enterprise Holdings through its North American regional subsidiaries.
National is a premium car rental brand focused on serving the needs of the frequent airport traveler. With National, time-sensitive customers in the U.S. are able to quickly choose their own vehicles, based upon their advance reservation and requested car class, and then simply drive away from the airport. National further expedites the rental process for its Emerald Club members by offering counter bypass as well as convenient e-receipts. The Emerald Club program also provides access to National’s “Emerald Aisle,” an exclusive section of the lot where members can select any vehicle as long as they reserve a midsized car.
National operates 715 U.S. and international locations (including franchisees). National offers a wide selection of late model, low mileage vehicles – more than 120 makes and models
Emerald Club gives its members services and perks designed to get travelers in, out and on their way faster than ever before. Members can earn their choice of Free Rental Days or frequent traveler miles/points - and get upgraded to elite membership levels when they rent with National more often. In 2010, theSmarterTravel Editors Choice Award went to Emerald Club in 2010 as the “Best Rental Car Loyalty Program.” In addition, Emerald Club was awarded a 2010 Business Traveler Innovation Award – sponsored by the National Business Travel Association (NBTA) and The Wall Street Journal – for expediting the travel process and enhancing convenience and efficiency.
