Top tips for hiring a car at Huntsville airport

  • Renting a car from one of the reliable car rentals at Huntsville Airport (HSV) is a decision you won't ever regret. This is because, with a rental car, you'll get the chance to move from one destination to another without having to experience the stopovers and transfers that characterize the area's public transport.

If you're a fan of the outdoors, some of the amazing attractions you'll easily reach include the Huntsville Botanical Garden, Monte Sano State Park, Big Spring International Park, and the Land Trust of North Alabama: Monte Sano Nature Preserve. If you prefer art and culture, you can easily get to the Huntsville Museum of Art, US Space & Rocket Center, Cook Museum of Natural Science, and Huntsville Depot Museum.
  • At Huntsville Airport, you can rent a car from Alamo, Avis, Enterprise, Budget, Hertz, Dollar, Thrifty, and National car rental. Each of these agencies has its strengths. If you're looking for affordable rentals, you should check out Budget, Alamo, and Dollar, given that they offer rentals at the most pocket-friendly rates. On the other hand, if you're looking for a long-term rental, you should check out Enterprise, Hertz, and Avis since these agencies boast the best long-term rental arrangements.
  • The car pick-up process at Huntsville Airport is quite simple. Upon landing at the airport, head to your preferred car rental booth, which you simply walk to, given that all car agency counters are located inside the airport terminal, across from the baggage claim. You will receive your rental agreement and keys at your car rental counter. You will then be directed to your car by one of the agency's staff.
  • You can rent a specific car model from car rentals at Huntsville Airport. However, please note that this action is not guaranteed, given that the car rentals at this airport rent out vehicles based on their availability.
  • Book your car hire at Huntsville airport at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

FAQs about hiring a car at Huntsville airport

  • What should I consider when choosing a rental car at Huntsville Airport?

    Car rentals at Huntsville Airport possess various car rental types. At any, you can rent a compact, minivan, full-size sedan, luxury sedan, pickup truck, or even a standard SUV. When selecting your rental, consider the destinations you intend to drive to. If the destinations are served by well-tarmacked roads, renting a sedan would be wise. On the other hand, if the destinations are served by rough roads, renting an SUV would be in your favor. Other than considering the destinations you intend to visit, consider the number of individuals you'll share the car with. Renting a compact rental is more than appropriate if you'll use it alone or with just one other individual while renting a minivan is in your best interest if you intend to use the car with up to four other individuals.

  • Do car rentals at Huntsville Airport offer extras?

    Car rentals at Huntsville Airport do offer extras. If you plan to have your child in your rental, you can rent an appropriate child seat from your agency. You can also request that your agency fit your rental with a functional GPS system if you're new to Huntsville and want movement aid. Additionally, you can purchase covers like a Loss and Damage Waiver, Personal Effects Coverage, or Supplemental Liability Protection.

  • What documentation do I need to rent a car at Huntsville Airport?

    To rent a car from any of the Huntsville Airport car rentals, you must be above 21 years old. If you're an American citizen, you must have a valid driver's license, a government-issued identification card, and a credit card. In contrast, if you're a foreigner, you must have your home country's driver's license, passport, and supported credit card. Kindly note that if you're below 25 years, you'll pay a bit more than other renters, given that agencies charge a caution fee for younger renters.

  • Which car hire companies will pick you up at Huntsville airport?

    Car hire companies that offer shuttle or pick-up services from Huntsville airport to off-airport locations include Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Hertz, National, and Thrifty.

We were expecting a midsize vehicle, but when we arrived all they had was a minivan. I was concerned about it getting terrible gas mileage and being bigger than we needed, but it worked out alright. It was comfortable for the 2 weeks we had it and the gas wasn't as good as we would have liked, but we enjoyed the space and comfort for the amount of time we spent on the road.

Cons:

I reserved a car online, and flew 800 miles . But when i arrived they told me i was not eligible to rent because of a deductible in 2004. Something I still have no knowledge of. Also poor customer service in Huntsville. Alabama.

Oct 2020

KAYAK

Cons:

The Lin’s seemed to move slow when I was picking up the car. There was only one person in front of me and it took a good 10 minutes to get me through the line. I’ve always thought car rental companies should pay attention to that metric. The last thing someone wants to be doing after a long airline flight is wait in a slow moving line.

KAYAK

Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

The vehicles in my area were advertised falsely. When I arrived to Alamo to pick up the vehicle I found on Kayak, they told me no cars had been available for weeks and had no idea why I found otherwise. Kayak should follow this up. These types of issues can create unnecessary stress for travelers.

Pros:

Car rental staff was nice, the location can't be beat--just get off the down escalator right by Baggage Claim and there it is!

Cons:

Renters were at the mercy of whoever looked at the long list of reservations and did not authorize delivering more cars for rental until an SOS from the desk staff. Waited over an hour for cars to be available so they could rent them--NOT professional at all and very unhappy customers!

Specifically asked at Nashville if I could change my payment method at drop off (different location) and was told yes. At drop off they said they can't do it, that I need to call Nashville, and they can. Called Nashville and they can't do it over the phone, I need to go to that location (i'm in a different state now). Called customer care- and they just had an attitude with me telling me if I want to change it I need to go to Nashville.

After arriving at Hertz counter to pickup minivan I had booked, was told they had no minivan to rent. I don't think you should be able to book a vehicle on kayak only to find out upon arrival to pick it up that there is no vehicle available. Not sure who is at fault here... kayak or Hertz. Either way a bad experience when you make a reservation only to find out that reservations don't mean a thing.
