KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Union City

  • Car rentals in Union City let you explore the city and surrounding areas at your own pace. You can drive to various places with no public transport coverage and stop at popular attractions. It is an ideal option if you have more luggage and is much cheaper when you compare the collective costs of hiring a taxi. You can drive to the vibrant city of Atlanta, which offers many attractions, or head east to Stone Mountain Park, a popular recreational area featuring a massive granite dome and surrounding parkland.
  • The best airport to fly into if you’re visiting Union City, GA is Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), around 12 miles from the city. Different car rental agencies are available onsite, including Rent-A-Car, Advantage, Avis, Alamo, Dollar, Budget, Enterprise, SIXT, Payless, Thrifty, Hertz, and National. The car rental desks are at the Rental Car Center, a separate facility from the Terminal on airport property. You can take the ATL SkyTrain or a vehicle from the Terminals to the Rental Car Center.

Pros:

The light skin guy working there does an amazing job! He has like a little curls afro. However outside of him it’s a big drop off when it comes to service. He’s amazing!

Cons:

I had to drive to the account for my rental only to be told that they didn’t have a car for me. That has to be fix.

They honored my vehicle choice. The car was not available for three hours after my reservation. They did not provide any compensation to the inconvenience of the delay. They only provided an option to call their hotline.

On arrival to pickup reserved car was told no available cars ( this was trure for 6-8 other people arriving to pickup cars) and expected wait times would be 2-3 hours. Since prepaid only option for refund was going through expedia. when that was done I went yhrough multiple calls and call menus without being able to talk to anyone who would listen to me before transferring me to another call menu which never worked. Since I was unable to reach expedia for refund I had to wait 2 1:2 hours for rental car. rest of process worked ok BUT I WILL NEVER RENT A CAR THROUGH EXPEDIA(KAYAK) AGAIN or PROB NOT FROM THRIFTY EITHER!!!!

I reserved a compact car, but they were out and only had minivans left. I luckily did not have to drive it the whole time I was in the area. I did have to fill up half a tank. I will never use this rental car company again.

Tires were almost bald and provided very poor traction on wet roads. Tire pressure guages were not working properly When we dropped the car off, there was no attendent and the spaces were full to capacity. We were charged $40.00 for dropping the vehicle off early. No more Rentals with Europcar!

They charge an early dropoff fee. The women at the front desk booked me for 2 days without telling me and the said she couldn't do anything about it. I called them their customer service and they said I had to call priceline. I called priceline and they said I had to call back in 20 min since their system was down. I had to be at a meeting I didn't have time to wait the 20 min for their system to possibly be up and running to then deal with the cancellation. I will not be using priceline or europcar ever again. It's now a new company policy. We travel 2 days a week typically.

My flight was delayed by 2 hours due to bad weather. I arrived in Atlanta at roughly 10:30pm and made it to the Fox/Europcar desk at 10:45pm. There were no service members there. After waiting for a couple minutes, I asked an employee of a different company at a neighboring desk and they said I would have to locate the office downstairs in the garage to pickup my key. After making my way downstairs and locating the office, I arrived at exactly 11pm as two employees were exiting the office. When I told them I was there to pick up my car, they said they were closed, the computers were shut down, and there was no way to go back into the office and get the keys for my rental. They then told me that my reservation was nonrefundable. I had to go back up to another company's desk and rent a car from them for my 2-hour drive. The complete lack of customer service was the worst car rental experience I've ever had. Lesson learned.

The insurances were to much. I have an black mastercard that covers all of my insurance but they did not accept it. The want to charge me like three times more than the price of the rental. We dicide to loose the price that we already pay for the reservation than pay that insurance. We went to alamo and they treat us like people. Such a bad experience in that rental.

They gave me a number to call to have a shuttle pick me up and bring to center for car. Called multiple times and no one answered and it was getting late so had to Uber to hotel. Ruined entire trip as no one else had last minute rental cars available. Still waiting for response from them.

I wasn’t able to be up the car! For some reason they don’t rent to Atlanta Residence and they send out communication to let me know that before I made it to the location.
