KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Eagan

  • Renting a vehicle from a car rental in Eagan offers several benefits over relying on trains or buses. With a car rental, you have the freedom to explore Eagan's attractions, including Caponi Art Park, Lebanon Hills Regional Park, and Lebanon Hills Visitor Center, without being constrained by fixed routes or timetables. In addition, a rental car can save you valuable time, as trains or buses often involve multiple transfers and longer travel times, whereas a car offers direct, point-to-point travel, allowing you to reach your destination more quickly and efficiently. A rental vehicle will also offer you a higher level of comfort and privacy, as you can enjoy a personalized, comfortable trip without the potential crowds, noise, or inconveniences associated with public transport.
  • If you are visiting Eagan for a business trip or a holiday getaway, you will arrive at Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport (MSP), as MSP is the main airport serving Eagan, Minnesota, and its surrounding regions. MSP features a variety of Eagan car rental providers to cater to travelers’ needs. Upon arriving at MSP, you can easily locate the car rental desks in the arrivals area. Major car rentals in Eagan available at MSP include Alamo, Ace, Budget, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Thrifty, Avis, SIXT, Keddy by Europcar, and Ace Rental Cars. The car rental desks have trained professionals who will take you through the rental process.

The pickup experience at the airport with the empty tables and shuttles that drive away was quite bad.

Pick up was interesting, no one at the counter and a 35 min wait for the shuttle for pick. That was the only mediocre part of the whole experience. Everyone was nice and friendly and counter help and drop off went with ease.

Rental counters at MSP are quite a distance from the terminal. Not the rental agencies fault it’s the airport. Once arriving at the rental counter the experience was very smooth. Checked in, shuttle to the off-site location met at the door by an agent who performs the car walk around with you and you’re away. Return was simple, pull into the designated area. Met by an agent. A walk around, check of the mileage even though it’s unlimited, asked if I needed a ride to the airport. Walk the short distance to the shuttle, board and taken to the drop off location at the airport. Off-site at MSP actually seems better than the onsite. Upon your return to the airport you cut the distance to the terminal by about half. Rather nice if you’re limited on time getting checked in and going through security.

Pros:

Staff unable to check whether I could use AARP or AAA discounts at time of check-in. Said I needed a “code.” Or maybe a secret handshake?

Cons:

Rental vehicle did not have a snow brush snd it snowed 2 of the 5 days I rented the vehicle. Come on - it’s Minnesota March weather madness! I was clearing dude windows with my forearms!

I had rented a jeep, and was told upon pickup that there was no guarantee it was all wheel drive, so I had to upgrade to a much more expensive car because the weather was really bad. My rental went from $499.00 to $1020.00! This should be noted on your site when booking. The agent was very good and just doing her job, so no complaints on the customer service!!

Car was okay, clean. pickup and drop-off was fine. BUT WATCH OUT FOR ADDITIONAL CHARGES! Upon arrival, they offered an upgrade for $30 more per day which i accepted. I booked for $533 for my rental, I was expecting to pay $653 with the upgrade, but they charged me almost $1000.00 They said I would get my invoice upon delivery of the vehicle, when I did deliver it, they then said I would get my invoice via email. then I noticed the charge. I immediately called them to dispute the transaction, they said it was because I said my wife "might" drive the vehicle so they added more insurance for her. - they did not declare that to me. (I ended up driving the whole time anyway) They said they would get back to me in 24-48 hours with my dispute/complaint. that didn't happen either. Now I am having to dispute the charge with my bank, and I still have not received an invoice from them. BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THESE GUYS. GET IT IN WRITING, GET A COPY BEFORE YOU AGREE TO ANYTHING.
