Top tips for hiring a car at Charlotte Douglas Airport

  • Travelers can avoid the inconveniences of public transportation by booking a car rental at Charlotte Douglas Airport. While the CATS bus will drop you off in Charlotte's center, they will not get you to a specific destination. Rental vehicles suit travelers who wish to explore sites within and around Charlotte city. Taxis or shuttles transport travelers to specified destinations but are relatively expensive when one needs to visit more than one popular site. Additionally, with a rental, travelers do not have to stress about bulky baggage or too much luggage, instead of in public transportation means, which sometimes have luggage limits.
  • A shuttle is unnecessary to get to the rental desks at the rental car center since it is within walking distance. Walk past the baggage claim area, and once you are outside, walk across the crosswalk. Multiple car rental agencies, including Enterprise and Avis, have desks on the second floor. Rental vehicles tend to be in high demand because they are convenient and offer flexibility and booking a car before arriving at Charlotte Douglas Airport is highly recommended. A reservation guarantees a traveler a vehicle and ensures they will be out exploring the fascinating sites Charlotte city offers a few minutes after landing.
  • Finding the return location for the rental is easy, but travelers must ensure the car is brought back in pristine condition. Each rental agency has a designated returns area indicated to make it easier to locate. Directions to the drop-off area are marked all along the airport's road past the hourly deck's entrance and up to the specific returns area, which has its entrance to the left. After dropping off the vehicle, travelers should exit the deck by taking an escalator or elevator to the second level then go across the bus crosswalk to arrive at the terminal.
  • Picking up a car rental at Charlotte Douglas Airport is more manageable towards the week's end, particularly over the weekends. Travelers scheduled to fly out on an early morning flight should ensure they bring back their rental early in the morning when traffic is slow-moving. Traffic congestion into the bustling airport is also worse in the evening because of heavy traffic, so renters should arrive before 4 pm to avoid returning the rental when Charlotte Douglas Airport car rental offices are not open.
  • Book your car hire at Charlotte Douglas Airport at least 6 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price

FAQs about hiring a car at Charlotte Douglas Airport

  • What are the recommended car models for Charlotte City?

    If you stay within the city, the sporty convertible is an ideal choice since the climate is perfect for a cruise down the busy streets. However, if you are looking to venture out into areas outside the city on rough terrain, consider renting an SUV with top rental brands like Avis.

  • Which car rental agencies at the easiest at CLT?

    Travelers in a rush to depart from the airport immediately after landing should consider getting the convenient Fastbreak program offered by Budget. This service, provided from the third floor of the parking garage for rental vehicles, ensures you do not waste time at the rental counter.

  • What kind of amenities does CLT's rental car center offer?

    CLT's rental car center comes with a covered garage for each agency to shelter the vehicles from harsh climatic conditions. On the third level of the facility, which houses the rental companies, are restaurants. Travelers who may want to use the nursing room, chapel, or lounge on the third floor of the parking deck should take an elevator from the ground floor where all the rental desks are situated.

  • What type of documentation is required to rent a car at CLT?

Not great, we were quoted for a ford transit or similar with a price of $615. When I got to the airport, they didn’t have any transits and could only give us an armada. I ended up having to pay $3,300 for a van which was ridiculous.

Pick up in CLT was easy. Drop off at AVL consisted of an employee saying "park it in E17 and drop your keys in the drop box. Budget will send you a receipt." I have not received a receipt of any info from Budget since I left Charlotte. I am concerned.

We never picked up a car because they were "out" in Charlotte despite booking a car online. Staff were nice and helpful at the time, despite the chaos, but it would've been helpful if the system told me there were no cars before we wasted so much time going there and waiting in line, etc.

It was horrible. We missed a connection in Charlotte after sitting on the taxiway for 2.5 hours waiting for a gate. We tried to get a rental car to get to our final destination. They accepted a reservation. We left the secured area of the airport to pick up the car. Just kidding, no cars. Went back to the terminal and got in line for TSA. After > hour, TSA shut down with no warning. We were stranded and had to sleep on the floor in the security corral. Rude and abusive treatment by airport staff, including management, made a bad situation much worse. In the future, we will avoid Dollar and Charlotte if at all humanly possible.

I checked in on the Hertz app. I could select a car on the app. Went to 3 different lines to find a person with access to select a car. Had to provide DL and Credit Card again even though I had already uploaded in the app. Went out to get my car. 4th line. They changed me to another car to speed up my wait. Went to the gate to get out. 5th line. My reservation was cancelled given I was not assigned the different car in their system. Turned away from gate as a result. Had to go back inside to get a new reservation. 6th line. Picked up the same car and waited in line at the gate a second time to leave. 7th line. I promise I am not over exaggerating my experience. Very frustrating.

Hertz messaged me that they didn’t have my car, which I had confirmed and checked in for, and after that notification they made me stand in line 25 minutes at their desk to be told I couldn’t get any refund. I looked for a way to contact Kayak for a refund, and there was no contact info anywhere on Kayak’s web site. So never again, Hertz and Kayak.

There wasn’t anyone at the desk when I returned the vehicle, which is understandable considering ILM is a small airport and I arrived at 5am. But when I called later that day to ask about if they had processed the car back in the system and what the final price would be, the person on the phone was almost clueless and offered very little help. Only telling me that it’s a “corporate rental” and they don’t know anything regarding final costs. Super unsatisfactory and ambiguous answer.

Pros:

Staff was relatively friendly and helpful, vehicle was excellent.

Cons:

The vehicle was not waiting for us when we arrived. We had to wait over 30 minutes for a vehicle to arrive at the facility. Communication of this was poor as we were told the wait would be only 10 minutes and I believe we were not immediately notified when our vehicle was ready.

Hey I’ve always seen this company sitting on the side and just thought, they probably want an arm and a leg for one of those nice cars. I drive a BMW 4 series and once you’ve drove luxury, it’s hard to go back. The price was lower than if I went and rent a Nissan Altima, crazy right. Maybe they had a special or just the timing was right. I like what I got and got a real experience.

When I first tried to book, they allowed me to go through the whole process and then told me there were no cars available. I tried again for a different car and was able to get one. I went to pick up the car and the woman at the counter told me that even though I had a reservation, if it was made that same day there were not any cars available. Then after she actually looked, she told me that my reservation was actually available but there were actually two under my name. I told her I was told that the first one didn't go through because there were no cars available at the time. Then she tried to upsell me on insurance I didn't need and intimidate me with fear tactics about what could happen if I didn't get the insurance. After all that I finally got the car. The car was mostly clean. It had some minor seat stains but it was a good experience. Then at the end of the trip I saw that SIXT charged my card twice, once for the actual rental and once for the one THEY canceled. I called them to dispute the charge and they told me they never actually canceled it, even though when I tried to book they told me there were no cars available. So SIXT charged me for a car they never had that I never rented.

Save yourself the hassle and just spend the extra money for a known name rental company. Van took forever to come pick up from the airport because they are located off sight. The car was damaged on the front and not just a little ding but noticeable sized dents and scratches.

There was no way to call the shuttle for airport pickup -- I called at least 6 times and the phone just rings and rings. It took 20 minutes for the shuttle to arrive and take us to the office. Once there, I signed in at the desk but 25 minutes later, my name still hadn't been called. I took a cab back to the airport and got a car from Alamo.

Shuttle experience was good; not long to wait. Once on site of rental car, service was mediocre. Rep treated us like we were trying to take advantage and he kept repeating the policy even though we were not arguing the fact of paying extra fees. He just didn’t have the best customer service attitude. He chose the worst car when he found out it was a one-way rental; the car was missing a hubcap and was not the best comfort ride in the interstate.

Will never use Ace again. I called to get a shuttle to pick me up and the gentleman repeatedly hung up on me or couldn’t explain where I should get the shuttle. He then proceeds to tell my husband, who was finally able to get some information from him after he repeatedly hung up on me, that there are no cars available and we would have to wait for two hours. We never got a car with Ace and I never will in the future. We used another company with far better service.

The rental process and the rental car itself were very smooth and a positive experience. The shuttle return to the airport after dropping off the car was quite stressful as it delayed us by 30-40 minutes when the return agent had told us to expect 10 minutes.

NU Car accepted a reservation that was outside their business hours. Their business hours were never communicated at any time. They never answered their phone or sent a shuttle. They are off site if the Charlotte airport in a shopping center. Upon arrival there in a cab, it also appeared that they had no cars. Absolutely avoid this entity.

I have no idea why Kayak would support this company and have them as an option. Do they not listen to their customers ? Look at the reviews. They scam you into $50 extra dollars a day with fake car insurance. Not only did I buy the extra insurance and also have my credit card that covers rental car insurance they add on fake “collision” insurance that’s extra on top of the 2 other insurances I already have.

I had TWO separate bookings, with multiple confirmations. When I got there, the young women at the counter was extremely unhelpful & told me she can’t do nothing for me. Said she couldn’t find any of the reservations. Didn’t even try to offer to book me a new one at the counter, nothing.

Sloooooow shuttle service; more than 30 minutes. Staff says shuttle runs on loop. Shuttle driver insists staff has to request shuttle. Phone always going to voicemail--took more than 6 calls to get a live person. Had to request shuttle 4 times. Indifferent initial employees-blame shifting for problems. Car rented had mechanical problems within 2 miles of renting. More than 1.5 hours total from shuttle call to final rental of working vehicle while there were essentially no other, or minimal, other customers.

My flight from Chicago to Charlotte experience a 4 hour delayed due to storms and the closing of the airport in CLT (temporarily). By the time I landed in Charlotte, CarWiz was closed. I called and called and all I got was a recording stating the office is closed till next morning. I had to scramble and get a car at an astronomical price. I am NOT PAYING for anything with carWiz and I better not get charge for anything regarding this disaster of an experience.

After inquiring about discounts for activity military, I was told they had none. A week later they presented me an offer for $380 for 14 days which was about half of what they told me the week prior. Then when I went to go pick it up, they added an additional 390 in different fees. I don’t know if they try hoodwink everybody or just people in the military…

Was surprised it was required I had to pay $75 in liability insurance. Was that in the fine print?????

The car was clean and reliable, and the shuttle driver, who took me to back to the airport, was great. Otherwise, I would never recommend this rental company. My reservation was nonrefundable, which was fine, except for the fact that the agent, who checked me in, told me that I had to purchase their liability insurance because they didn’t “accept insurance from my insurance company” but that he would accept it for comp/collision coverage. Instead of losing the $190 I had already paid, I went ahead and purchased the liability insurance, for an additional $150. I then called my insurance agent, who assured me that my liability insurance would cover any rental car, in the US. I have attempted to have the $150 refunded to me, but have had a very difficult time reaching anyone who seems to be able to address the issue. Overall, I was very disappointed in the sneaky and unscrupulous practices this company employs.

Quite literally the worst experience with a car rental company I have ever had. Whatever you do, regardless of what supposed “deals” they are claiming to give you, steer clear of this company! CarWiz/NU car rentals are a joke. No customer service. They aren’t upfront about added costs and insurance additions, and then gouge you once you’re there to actually pick up the vehicle and don’t have options to change your reservation without a penalty. I would be more likely to sell my first born child off than to ever utilize this company again.
