National Car Rental Gets New Location in Reagan National Airport, Giving Customers Faster, More Convenient Service

TULSA, Okla., Aug. 22, 2006 -- National Car Rental, one of the largest car rental brands in the world, announced today that it has moved to a new location within Reagan Washington National Airport. Located in Arlington County, Va., Reagan Washington National served approximately 17.8 million passengers in 2005.

National has moved from an uncovered upper deck exposed to the elements to a covered garage for rental and return. The new location gives customers protection from weather and provides a shorter walk from the counter and shuttle locations.

"National's corporate customers are used to a fast and convenient rental car experience from us and this location enhances that further for our customers at Reagan National," said Jerry Dow, chief marketing officer for National. "Furthermore, the new location allows us to double our Emerald Aisle for Emerald Club customers and choice selection for other customers; and our increased space and staffing provides even faster transactions."

National's new location is part of a multi-year agreement with the airport and provides the company with a 50 percent increased footprint at Reagan National.
