Top tips for hiring a car at Gallatin Field Airport
The quickest way to get to downtown Bozeman from BZN Airport is via a car rental at Bozeman Gallatin Field Airport. While the two locations are about 8 miles apart, you can easily cover the distance in about 15min if you drive yourself. Driving yourself also lets you work with your schedule, as you can travel whenever you want without worrying about catching a ride. You’ll also get to save on your time and money in the long run, especially if you’ll be in town for long.
A car rental at Bozeman Gallatin Field Airport trumps other transportation means available in a couple of ways. Unlike buses that travel a specific route only, you won’t have to worry about getting to the other end of town whenever you want to run errands or explore every corner of the city. Renting your car will give you an upfront cost, letting you plan your finances well, as opposed to taxis and rideshares, which can have changing or hidden fees.
When contemplating a car rental at BZN Airport, we recommend considering your plans and the vehicle model. For instance, you’ll want to rent an SUV or truck big enough to accommodate skis if you’ll be exploring the Montana mountains. A convertible rental can come in handy if you want to take in the fresh outdoor air during summer. Rental companies also offer luxury car rentals, which can be ideal for couples and business travelers. Another option available is the van rental that can accommodate large groups of about 12-15 people.
Renting a vehicle at BZN airport is a simple process since there are car rental counters on-site. That means you can step from the airplane and get behind the wheels within no time, especially if you expedite the check-in process. The car rental companies have their offices adjacent to the baggage claim at the far west side of the terminal. Once you pick your luggage, locate the specific company counter you reserved your vehicle from and head there to collect your rental contract and keys.
Book your car hire at Gallatin Field Airport at least 2 weeks before your trip in order to get a below-average price

I was unable to rent from Budget when I arrived at the airport having prepaid my full rental for $750 they denied the rental saying it was a credit issue . Insane . Do I went next door and got a much better car for $475 at Enterprise . Budget should not do this to people who book and prepay in advance its just a terrible business model . I will never use them !!

Customer Complaint Letter(Qeeq Number: 93627548): I made a reservation in advance from South Korea to rent a Toyota. However, when I arrived at Bozeman Airport, your male staff member gave me a Mazda instead(EXB834 Montana), which is a car unfamiliar and uncommon in South Korea. If your company had to change the reserved vehicle, you should have notified me in advance. Unfortunately, your company failed to do so. In addition, the navigation panel in the Mazda did not function properly throughout the rental period, which caused me significant inconvenience while driving. I also had difficulty charging my phone in the car. When a customer reserves a car, but is given a completely different vehicle without any prior notice—especially one unfamiliar in the customer’s home country—it creates great inconvenience and even potential safety risks. Furthermore, requiring the customer to purchase liability insurance at the airport may also be considered an unfair rental practice. Therefore, I kindly request appropriate compensation for these inconveniences and issues.
We were very happy with our rental, not one person in line while others had 40 or more, we’re offered an upgrade right away to a SUV which really helped us out, will definitely use National in the future.
Everything was great, but a bit pricey. If I would have had a choice I would have chosen something less expensive

Car was great, clean and full of gas and the Bozman facility was very convenient. The issue I had was at the counter with the estimated price I was given compared to what I was quoted on Kayak. It was literally triple the cost and it wasn't until I showed the attendant my Kayak quote that they adjusted the system to match the Kayak estimate. I asked why the huge discrepancy and was told that there was a glitch in the system because my reservation was more then 7 days and the system didn't calculate the remaining days correctly. This made me wonder what I would have been charged had I not questioned the attendant... Other than that, the rental was flawless.

We got a nice car. The inside of the windshield was so dirty I had to come to a complete stop on the road the first time I turned into the sun.
The Custmer service Rep at the vounter was very helpful. Xdhe slready knee that the car I reserved won’t fit our needs. She already had a different SUV for us. She explained to us in terms that were not demanding. So we went with her suggestion, the Grand Cherokee. And we had a very good time and fun in our trip. We didn’t have to worry about driving in the snow since its a 4 wheel drive. 👍🙂

It was very easy to pickup vehicle in Bozeman. Woman at the counter was very friendly, and because there was a bigger car available, we were upgraded. The Jeep Grand wagoneer was clean and ran great, and even got better mileage than we expected!

Great! Only gripe would be in cleanliness of car. There were hand prints all over the outside and the inside front window was very dirty.

I never rented the vehicle. Hertz would not allow me to rent the vehicle due to me not having a credit card. I would like my refund back ASAP
Waited 90 minutes in line at the counter to rent the car. They were extremely understaffed to handle the level of customers and some of the staff were very inefficient. I will never rent from them again.
