I just ran into this at work. I had to send an employee to Florida who only had a debit card (w/MC logo) Budget in the Jacksonville airport allowed him to rent. I think each location makes their own policy with regard to debit cards, so I made sure to call the Budget office in Jacksonville to verify.

Not on one way rentals, r/t, with proof only.

Yes, they do, but, they also run a credit check on you, which shows up as an inquiry on your credit report for purchase of a new vehicle. Also, if you don't pass their credit check you will not be able to rent a vehicle even with a credit card.

Hertz, if you sign up for their number 1 gold, which was (not sure if it still is) free to do via a link on mousesavers site.

Tia,

If you don't need a car once you arrive in Boston, you might consider taking the train. Amtrak offers several depatures from Albany (only one direct through), and the one-way cost is from $25 - $75...probably less than you'd spend on a one way car rental. (One way car rentals can be very pricey.)
