KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Jonesboro
- Getting a rental car from one of the cheap car rentals in Jonesboro will give you the freedom to explore the city at your own pace. Jonesboro, like many other cities in the US, requires visitors to have a vehicle at their disposal as there is very little public transportation in the city. Within the city, you can drive to Bradbury Art Museum and the University Museum and learn more about the region's modern artwork and natural history. You can also drive to Craighead Forest Park, a large park with a lake and sports courts. Outside of town, you can drive to top attractions in nearby towns such as Paragould, Kennett, Batesville, Blytheville, Atoka, Forrest City, Bartlett, and West Me mphis.

If this is the case, the airport is home to car rental desks for several major rental agencies, including Hertz, Avis, Alamo, Budget, and Thrifty. Even though these car rental companies serve the airport, none have an on-site car rental facility. They all provide a complimentary shuttle service that ferries passengers to nearby car rental facilities. The attendants at your preferred car rental counter will point you in the direction of the agency's shuttle bus in the ground transportation area.

Pros:
I didn't get to rent a truck because they don't accept debit cards without a bill. That is info that should be made known up front. I drive an hour to pick up my rental and when I get there sorry we can't accept a bed it card with out a past utility bill. So I'm not pleased at all with my experience and I will let people know my experience.Hertz

Pros:
Friendly service, fast check in and fast check outCons:
Price wasn't what was quoted to me. I also was charged a whole extra day for having the car an additional 12 hours. It was fine I was charged an extra day but it was 2 times the price of the other 4 days. Other than that, I was satisfied with Hertz.2,0 Poor
