AAA has helped generations of drivers and travelers get to their destinations for 120 years. As times change, AAA continues to evolve by offering perks that make life easier for younger generations as well as longtime members.

There are many ways that AAA benefits younger people, whether it be a sense of confidence on the open road or the freedom to go on adventurous expeditions. Or maybe you just want to save money everywhere you turn and treat your pet like part of the family.

Check out these convenient, money-saving AAA Membership benefits that young people need to take advantage of:

ON THE ROAD

Many millennials and Gen Zers are in the early stages of their money-making years, and you may not have the budget for a brand-new vehicle. Even if you have a reliable car, the unexpected can happen on the road during a long road trip or a drive to college or work.

AAA’s emergency roadside service provides peace of mind for any driver, offering 24/7/365 service. And remember, AAA covers the member, not the car, so you can request service even if your Uber breaks down.

Need directions? Count on our web-based and AAA Mobile app maps to help you find 59,000 AAA Approved and Diamond Rated hotels and restaurants while you’re on the road.

Want a rental car but don’t want to pay more just because you’re young? Not a problem with AAA. Hertz charges a $30 Young Driver Fee to renters under the age of 25, but that fee is waived for AAA members. Just bring your AAA Membership card to the Hertz location where you’re getting your rental.

DESTINATION TRAVEL

Younger people embrace new experiences, and one of the ways they are finding those experiences is through travel. A recent AAA poll found that millennials are just as likely as baby boomers to use a travel agent to plan a trip.

Themed tours and cruises are popular with younger travelers, with expeditions centered on subjects such as tattoo culture and rock and roll bands.

AAA travel agents have the inside scoop on a variety of these tours, and your AAA membership will help you lock in the best rates and perks for your trip. Club Adventures are a popular choice for anyone looking for an active getaway. Learn more here.

Also, AAA recently launched AAA Unique Travel Experiences, a travel club popular with younger travelers offering unique trips offering adventure and activity. 

Don’t forget to use AAA to save on airport parking, too. AAA members save 10 percent at The Parking Spot and have their $4.95 online registration fee waived. Cha-ching!

And if you’re looking for something to do while you’re out of town, check out AAA Tickets for exclusive deals on live shows, concerts, sporting events and more. Visit AAA.com/Tickets to save on tickets to your next big event!

Also, AAA members save on admission to dozens of attractions, including all Six Flags parks and Walt Disney World.

SAVE MONEY

AAA members enjoy dozens of shopping discounts, including bargains on medication through GoodRx; gas discounts at Maple Leaf Market, SavOn convenience stores and Fastrac; and 15 percent off products at The UPS Store.

When it comes to electronics, AAA members can save up to 35 percent on select products through HP and up to 30 percent off Dell products. There are hundreds of other retailers, restaurants, attractions, hotels, services and more that you’ll save on thanks to AAA.

And here’s a little shopping hack just for AAA members: Shop with AAA eGift Cards and get rebates of up to 11 percent, which are automatically applied to your AAA Membership dues. With AAA eGift Cards available from over 375 participating retailers like Starbucks, Best Buy and Foot

Locker, you can eliminate your annual AAA dues just by shopping smart.
