Reserving a car rental at Fort Lauderdale Airport is an easy and comfortable way to travel throughout the surrounding region. While the city does have a functional public transportation system, the quickest way to travel throughout neighborhoods is by driving. Plus, having access to your own vehicle will allow you to stick to your schedule and explore the town at your leisure. A Fort Lauderdale Airport car rental will also make it easier for you to go on trips to other cities in the surrounding area.
There are a variety of different models for you to choose from for your car rental at Fort Lauderdale Airport. If you will mainly be staying in the city center, you can choose to rent an economy vehicle. Those that want to treat themselves and enjoy the Florida sunshine can opt for a convertible instead. When traveling with a larger group of individuals, it's often convenient to have an SUV.
Once you are ready to return your car rental at Fort Lauderdale Airport, you can do so by bringing it back to the location where you initially picked it up. When you reach the airport, start to look for signs that will help lead you to the car rental center. You can drop your vehicle off at the lot for your respective rental company and then head into the office to finish up any paperwork that you may need to do.
Fort Lauderdale is a popular and busy city, so its roads will often have congestion during rush hour, which is typically in the mornings and evenings when people are headed to and from work. To avoid getting caught in a traffic jam, try to pick up and drop off your rental car outside of these time periods. Certain major roads tend to be busier than others, including Interstates 95, 595, and 736.

For TWENTY minutes after returning our rental a wallet was mistakenly left in the vehicle. After twenty mins we returned and were given the wallet, but without the thousand dollars that was in it. I didn't receive help at the time and needed to catch our flight. However, since then my reports to Alamo have gone unanswered. The policy is they aren’t responsible for unattended items… no surprise there. But their lack of interest in rooting out an employee who so plainly stole a significant amount of money is… disheartening. Had my concern been escalated at the time, the employee could have been caught red-handed and the money even potentially returned. Instead, I’ve heard nothing from Alamo. I’ve left website, messaging, phone, and customer service chat complaints. No response. No response to my requests they view camera footage and the log of who was in the vehicle. At this point I’m frustrated that this hasn’t been addressed. If they aren’t going to return the money (because they didn’t take the time to speak to their employees) they should at least police them when reports of theft are made. If not, customers will have to make actual police reports.

Pros:

Easy to pick up and return were fairly straightforward although the wait time to pick up was too long given there were very few other customers.

Cons:

They gave us a choice of two cars. One smelled terrible on the inside and the other desperately needed cleaning on the interior. There was a bunch of popcorn in the back seat and hand prints on the rear seat windows. We were not impressed. I mean you could see the debris before even opening the doors. Gross. And this is supposed to be a time of extra cleaning given the pandemic. May not use Alamo again.

The car was good and staff was friendly but we were charged more than expected and never received an answer when we questioned this. The amount quoted at the pick-up desk was slightly higher (about $10) than the quote. We planned to return the car with a fulll tank of gas but due to unexpected traffic we weren’t able to stop and were charged $48 (returned it with half of tank, charged for a full tank) and were charged an additional $36 for a recovery fee which we have no idea what this was for or why it was charged.

Awful. Stop pushing EV as rental choice. There aren’t any charging stations in and around the Ft Lauderdale area, all of the locations I was directed to were either broken or not there at all. (I had requested a Tesla which would not have been an issue, but was given a Ford Mach E). Get a better procedure before renting out vehicles because I turned away two because of cleanliness and marijuana odor.

Ace doubled my rate when I rented my car at the counter, from $108 to $208, saying i chose the “manager’s choice” rate in my reservation, but that they only had a RAV-4 so it was “double”. They said i could wait indefinitely for “another car”. Because i could not wait indefinitely at the airport for “another car”, the manager gave me the “manager’s choice” at double the rate that i booked. Unbelievable scam.

The car size I reserved wasn’t available so the charged me $10 extra a day. Not cool. So my cost was more than double. Also the car was constantly dinging that it needed service. You can imagine how annoying that was. Everything else was great.

I would’ve liked to be able to use one credit card at pick up and a different one at drop off which I was refused. I usually rent next door for them at Fox And there is never a problem, changing credit cards. The rental agent was adamant that I cannot do that, which will leave me know alternative, but to resume renting from Fox or other rental companies within Fort Lauderdale airport.

My issue was - in the hotel I was at, I had to use valet parking - the valet driver hit a pipe with the rental car. When I tried to call the official Thrifty number on the contract, I couldn't get a live person AND (as crazy as it seems) kept bringing my to a sales line selling Life Lock. This happened about 10 times. Not kidding. After 9.5 hours of phone calls, paperwork and bringing the damaged car to the Miami airport, I got a replacement car. The customer service person told me to bring the car to the Miami Airport. Note - when I brought it to the damaged car to the Miami Airport, the person at the Thrifty car rental refused to replace it. Again, not kidding. After about 1 hour of arguing with him and trying to call customer service back, they FINALLY accepted it. The experience was terrible. And, I'm not kidding about the 9.5 hours from the time of the accident - 3:58PM till 1:30AM I was dealing with this issue.

The car class we reserved was not available forcing us to upgrade at a charge, then despite declining all coverage we were charged for loss and damage insurance, both of these things ended up causing us to spend almost $200 above what we planned based on my kayak reservation
