KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Aberdeen

  • If you're looking to explore Aberdeen, you can use Aberdeen car rentals to facilitate your travel throughout your stay in the city. With car rentals in Aberdeen, you have an edge over public transport users as it offers comfort and convenience. Car rentals in Aberdeen allow travelers to access attractions like the Aberdeen IronBirds Stadium or the Ripken Museum, which may not be conveniently served by public transportation. With car rentals in Aberdeen, you can access destinations outside of Aberdeen, such as Havre de Grace or the Susquehanna State Park, allowing you to explore off-the-beaten-path attractions.
  • When flying into Aberdeen, there are two main airport entry points nearby. Travelers can arrive at Washington Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) or Philadelphia International Airport (PHL). To access Aberdeen car rentals at BWI, follow the signs to the Baggage Claim area on the lower level to collect your baggage. From here, proceed through exit doors for the Rental Car Shuttle bus, which is used by all Rental Car companies. At PHL, shuttles operate from Zone 2 to the rental facility.  Some of the car rentals at the airports include Avis, Budget, Enterprise, and Hertz.
  • When driving in Aberdeen, there are several important considerations for car rental users to keep in mind. Car rental users in Aberdeen should approach the intersection of Bel Air Avenue and Route 22, with caution as it can be busy and may have multiple turning lanes. Drivers should pay close attention to jaywalking pedestrians when approaching heavily pedestrianized areas like Market Street or North Philadelphia Boulevard, as they may cross the road unexpectedly. When driving in the city center, rental users should anticipate road sharing on or along popular routes like the Ma & Pa Trail. Additionally, being aware of public transport vehicles, such as buses and their frequent stops is crucial when driving around the city.
  •  Aberdeen's traffic atmosphere is normally congested between 7 am to 9 am and 4 pm to 6 pm on weekdays. During these peak traffic times, major roads and streets like Route 22, Beards Hill Road, and Route 40 can experience heavy congestion, slowing down traffic flow. During adverse weather conditions, particularly in winter, main thoroughfares like Route 22 and Route 40 make driving challenging as there may be an accumulation of snow and ice, leading to reduced visibility.
  • Book your car hire in Aberdeen at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Full-size hire cars in Aberdeen are around 137% more expensive than other car types, on average

Th vehicle should have been cleaner. There was cat hair on seats and in the trunk. The interior smelled of smoke, food crumbs on the floors and worst off was the dried spilled soda on the plastic by the gear shifter. Was not impressed, would have traded vehicles but was under time restraints.

Getting the car was fine. When we drove the car, it needed an alinement, the tire maintenance light came on, the oil maintenance light came on, and the tags expired in June. When I let them know what the issues were, the response they gave was a nonchalant “I know”. They were aware of all the issues and STILL rented the car out. I will never go back to them again, nor will I recommend. 0/10 stars.

Reserved a full size suv for vacation over month ago and when I got there all they had was mid size suv. Completely changed all my vacation plans. Their customer service at this location is embarrassing to Avis. I would recommend them to anyone.

Pros:

Service was friendly. Key drop-off for overnight is convenient.

Cons:

The Altima that I was given has the defective radar system and that prevents the cruise control from working. So I drove 1600 miles of highway with no cruise control and over time, it became very uncomfortable. I left my EZ-Pass tag attached to the window when I dropped the car off over night. I returned early in the morning to claim it and was told there was no EZ-Pass in the car. I didn't remove it from the car, so it disappeared in their hands. I had to cancel my pass.

There is no Hertz in Bel Air MD. I called Hertz and they had no idea. So I was left without a car.
