KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Jackson

  • Car rentals in Jackson offer one the most convenient and flexible means of transport for visitors on a vacation or business trip in the city. Amtrak Trains and JATA buses are the other transport options in the city, which are popular for their cost-effectiveness. Booking car rentals, on the other hand, comes with the advantage of allowing drivers to choose their own departure times and routes to follow. One of the places you should consider visiting with your rented car is Sparks Foundation County Park. The car serves as a mobile store for your packed lunch and other personal belongings.
  • Jackson car rentals at Capital Region International Airport (LAN) enable visitors to enjoy self-drive from the airport to Jackson city center, a distance of 45 miles. Both Avis and Enterprise have their counters inside the airport. Enterprise's counter is located on the ground level of the main arrival terminal. Those who prefer renting their car from Avis will access its counter in the baggage claim area. Budget and Hertz do not have their counters at the airport but avail courtesy shuttles to ferry customers from the airport to their respective car rental locations.
  • Make your driving experience in Jackson safer and more exciting by remembering a few things. It is almost optional for drivers in to change lanes on multi-lane highways or make turns without indicating. Drivers are more concerned with the car ahead of them and do not care much about what is happening behind them. Therefore, it is your responsibility to maintain lower and controllable speed as well as keep a close eye on the car(s) ahead of you. When driving in Jackson's central business district, always remember there is a large number of pedestrians who commonly jump into the roads without checking oncoming vehicles.
  • The convenience of using car rentals in Jackson reduces drastically any time the city hosts major annual events. An example of such an event is the Jackson Antique & Flea Market Show, which takes place in the first week of March. The event causes a significant disruption in the traffic in the city, with many roads experiencing heavy traffic congestion. Therefore, it is quite difficult to drive your rented car on most of the roads in the city.
  • Book your car hire in Jackson at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Standard hire cars in Jackson are around 73% cheaper than other car types, on average

They didn’t have the car that I requested. They offered us an upgrade for the same price, and we were very pleased. We liked the vehicle so much, that we’re looking into purchasing the same vehicle! Keep up the good work!

I need a better explanation about car ins coverage. Example- what are the charges that Hertz would charge me if the car was stolen or destroyed. I understand the collision aspect but what other charges would be involved like loss of use of the vehicle etc.

Cons:

They could have had a car. And then they told me because they didn't have a car and I'd paid already, they said they weren't going to refund my money. Never got a car from them. Will never use them and guy running place was not professional or knowledgeable.

Nov 2019

KAYAK

Pros:

Staff was ok and the pick-up process was fast.

Cons:

I was a little put off at the casual attitude when I mentioned the tire pressure was low and that I had to take time to go have air put in two of the tires. The car was also out of windshield washer fluid and being winter in Michigan, I couldn't see a thing until I went and washed the windshield every time I drove. It was a huge inconvenience while traveling but there wasn't even a "sorry about that" when I returned the car. I didn't expect a discount or special treatment but was just looking for a little more kindness in the customer service.

Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Car was dirty, left with garbage and tank only 1/3 full (fair to say, that team did not have time to prep it as it was just returned).

Windows not clean, no washer fluid. Customer rep at pick up and drop off unfriendly. Dropped off with full tank. On bill stated we shorted them 3 gal stated came in at 10.something and we gave a receipt showing that we put almost 12 in. Place a complaint call and waiting for investigation to complete so we get refunded the gas fund back. Will not rent from this place ever again
