KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Prairieville

  • Driving car rentals in Prairieville is a wonderful way to see this suburb of Baton Rouge. Prairieville car rentals can save you time over taking public transportation, allowing you to use more of your time to keep appointments and visit people you want to see.

  • Situated about 25 miles north of Prairieville, the Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport (BTR) is a great place to get car rentals in Prairieville. BTR makes picking up a rental car easy. The rental car counters are just beyond the baggage claim carousels, and the rental car garage is a short walk away, just outside the arrivals exit in the airport parking lot. When it is time to return you rental car, follow the Rental Car Return signs as you approach BTR in order to return to the rental car garage.
  • For anyone driving car rentals in Prairieville who will be traveling back and forth to Baton Rouge, be advised that the Baton Rouge Metropolitan area experiences severe congestion during peak rush hours between 7 am and 9:30 pm and then 3:30 pm to 6 pm. If you must travel during these times, add about 10 minutes to your morning drive and add about 20 minutes to your evening drive. Prairieville itself is a quiet community where driving is relatively stress-free outside of peak rush hours. As the weather is relatively nice year-round, beware of pedestrians and cyclists and always remember to give them the right of way.
  • Those driving car rentals in Prairieville will face some challenges. Because Prairieville has a rural feel to it, you may encounter wildlife running into the road. If you see an animal waiting to cross, stop and let it cross, and wait to see if there are other animals, especially younger animals, who need to cross as well. Prairieville also experiences tornadoes and tropical cyclones. If local news reports warn of a coming storm, refrain from driving. If you find yourself caught in a severe storm, pull to the side of the road and get down low, covering your head with your hands or a jacket or blanket.
  • Book your car hire in Prairieville at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

I was told that my reservation was cancelled because I did not forsee a delay in my travel for a mechanical failure to the airplane when I made the reservation two weeks in advance. After explaining that to the Hertz employees and leaving to find alternative transportation I was given a rental car. I would not recommend a rental from this location.

These vans do not have cruise control. Important information when your trip is over 500 miles.

They called 3 hours before I was supposed to pick up the car to tell me that they had no cars available. That left me scrambling to find a car for my trip.

It was an easy experience. I had some wait time at the Budget in Baton Rouge but once I get checked in, I signed a few papers and checked the car. Then I was on my way. The car was a good and clean vehicle, tank was filled with gas. Pretty seamless. Drop-off in Broken Arrow was even easier. He checked the mileage and gave me my receipt, and I was on my way. Fast and efficient experience.

I’ve been online and did ExpressCheck in. When I arrived, I had to wait in line, which was fine, except that there was no privacy for discussions about money, and the person in front of me are very upsetting experience. I did finally reached the counter and ported that I had already checked in through Xpress and paid, the staff person told me that I had not paid that I had simply entered the information. He then charged me. I now have two charges on my credit card of two fees from two separate agreements. I also see that the receipt I got was for one price, $77 I don’t my credit card I still see the deposit charge of $200. All toll I have a charge of over $500 for a car that was supposed to cost me $77 for 24 hour period. I fully expect to get the deposits back because the car was in good shape and the attendant at the New Orleans airport and drop off, the nicest person in the whole process, told me everything was fine. So yes got a good experience.

The pickup process was very quick and the vehicle I was given was very clean and nice. The drop off process was very quick and easy as well which was just what I needed. The only thing I would change was the price but I know the prices will increase when you drop off at at a different location
