Comparing AAA Classic, Plus, or Premier? Here’s how RMO MyRoadside stacks up — on price, what’s actually covered, and which one fits your driving life.
AAA pricing varies by region because clubs are operated independently — the figure shown reflects a typical AAA Classic annual fee.
AAA Classic is approximately $70–$90/year, AAA Plus $100–$130/year, and AAA Premier $130–$160/year, with significant variation by club and region. Pricing referenced from publicly available AAA club rate cards as of 2026.
