Is it better to hire a car at the airport?

Accepted Answer

Whether it's better to hire a car at the airport depends on your needs. Airport rentals offer convenience with immediate availability and a wider variety of cars, often with extended hours. However, they can be more expensive due to airport fees and higher demand, and they can be busy, leading to longer wait times. If convenience and variety are your priorities, airport rentals are a good choice. For cost savings, consider off-airport locations or city center rentals.

Question 4

Does First Car Rental require refueling in Umtata Airport, Umtata, South Africa?

Accepted Answer

The First Car Rental fuel policy you select at Umtata Airport will determine your fueling responsibilities. With a full-to-full or same-to-same option, you need to return the car with the same amount of fuel it had at pickup. If not, you'll be charged for the missing fuel at a rate higher than the local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank. This means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, the cost will be higher overall since you'll be charged the local gas price minus a per-gallon discount, leading to an increased total cost.
