The kiosk is close to the baggage pickup area. Our flight was 4 hours late arriving and the clerk stayed long by past their work hours so that we could have our car at 1 am. Loved the Kia van clean and new.
Very poor experience at pickup and no staff available at dropoff and outrageous price for add on insurance

Nothing could be better. My car was waiting for me. My reservation was set and it was not busy due to COVID. I was out doing the check in 5 minutes and on my way 5 minutes later
The car wasn’t ready had to wait 30 mins. Told me I am getting an upgrade but it was a 10 year old Mitsubishi suv with no mats and patches on the floor. Extremely bad to run - worst experience so far.

I thought a compact SUV would be bigger than a Mazda CX-3 but that’s my mistake I guess. Otherwise great. Except I haven’t gotten a receipt emailed to me yet but see that my card was charged a bit more than expected/quoted. So that’s not ideal. Thanks

The only problem I had was with the wipers which weren't coming in contact with the windshield so I had to come back the next day and have them replaced but then I noticed the tires were a bit bald and I was sliding around in the snow so they ended up giving me a different vehicle which was much better.

Windshield was covered in oily smudges that made night driving difficult to see through the windshield.
Everything went very quickly and efficiently for pick up and drop off.

They gave me a hybrid car but didn't know it was. When I went to start it... it didn't start the engine... It created confusion. A good briefing would have been required. Thanks
