Top tips for hiring a car at Springfield Capital airport

  • Choosing a car rental at Springfield Capital Airport (SPI) provides you with the flexibility and convenience that public transportation options may not offer. Unlike public transportation, which may not directly connect the airport to the town center, a rental car allows you to quickly and easily reach your destination from the airport. You won't have to rely on more expensive transportation options like taxis or rideshare services, which can add up in cost, especially for longer stays.
  • When you choose Springfield Capital Airport car rental, you'll benefit from the wide range of options available to you. With a choice of five reputable rental brands, you can select the one that suits your preferences. The service desks for these companies are conveniently located at the east end of the terminal near Door D. Once you've finalized the rental formalities, you can easily locate the rental cars sitting just outside the terminal building.
  • When it's time to return your car rental at Springfield Capital Airport, drive your vehicle back to the designated rental car return area. Look for the clearly marked spots assigned to your rental company and park your car in one of those designated spots. After parking, you can bring the contract and keys into the terminal and drop them off at the service desk of your rental company. You may find a dropbox specifically provided by your rental company in the return lot.
  • Typically, mornings can be busier at the airport, especially on weekdays, as travelers often have early morning flights or business-related trips. This can make the car rental process longer. Also, weekdays, particularly during peak commuting hours in the morning, may experience increased traffic and passenger volume. During holiday times and school vacations, such as spring break or Christmas, this airport generally sees higher passenger traffic as families and leisure travelers go on trips.
  • Book your car hire at Springfield Capital airport at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

After dropping the car off they called me and said they were charging me $450 cleaning fee due to sand in the vehicle. I have never had this issue with a car rental company or i would have vacuumed the sand myself

Customer personnel were great. The interior windows were dirty and hard to see out of when we arrived in the fog. The vehicle had a few more dents and dings than on the original sheet.
