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.

Question 4

Does Budget require refueling in Athens International Airport, Athens, Greece?

Accepted Answer

The Budget fuel policy you select at Athens International 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.

Question 5

Can you provide an example of a one-way car rental?

Accepted Answer

Certainly! A one-way car hire example is when you rent a car from Enterprise in Seattle and return it at an Enterprise location in Los Angeles. Another example is renting a car from Avis at JFK Airport and returning it at one of Avis's downtown locations.

Can someone else drive my hire car?

Accepted Answer

If another person drives the rental but is not down as an additional driver, you will void the rental agreement and the insurance company may refuse to cover any physical damage to the vehicle.

Question 8

What is a one-way fee?
