Renting a car at Savannah/Hilton Head Airport (SAV) offers the easiest way of getting around Savannah, GA. Unlike the taxis, buses, rideshare, or shuttle services, a car rental at Savannah/Hilton Head Airport provides you a perfect SUV for offloading or a van when traveling with a few passengers, among other vehicles based on your preference and unique requirements. Once the rental car is in your possession, you can drive and explore any destination of choice. That's an opportunity you can't afford with public transportation that follows the same route and schedule all day.
If you're confined to a tight budget, it will help if you booked your car in advance. A car rental at Savannah/Hilton Head Airport will usually impose extra charges due to tax fees, car insurance, and the convenience they provide international passengers. Booking a month before your travel date ensures you get lower than regular prices. It also guarantees you'll get your preferred car model, unlike when you rent during peak seasons in summer and fall, when there's an influx of passengers wanting rental cars.
Returning your rental vehicle is easy with a Savannah/Hilton Head Airport car rental. Follow the "Car Rental Return" signs that lead to the covered parking lot outside the baggage claims area. In case your flight is scheduled to take off during the car rental after-hours, you can still return the car. Once you park and lock the car, complete the contact form and drop it (together with the keys) in the dropbox. Still, you'll be responsible for the automobile until the rental agent inspects the car.
Like any other city, Savanna, GA, also experiences traffic congestion during the rush hour. If you have a morning flight, you can expect virtually no traffic leaving the city to return the car. It would be best to drive on I-16 as there're periodic road closures on Abercorn Ext/204 to the east. If you're heading to the city during morning rush hour (at around 6.30 am to 7.45 am,) you can avoid heavy traffic by traveling on I-95 and then south to I-16, which runs through the downtown area. Alternatively, you can head to the US-80 from the airport, which also gets congested during rush hour.

Arriving passengers have an easy time accessing a car rental at Savannah/Hilton Head Airport. You'll find car rental counters located next to the baggage claims section. Some of the rental agencies with on-site counters have pickup locations within a short walking distance. You'll find some of them on Airways Ave. The rental parking lot is conveniently situated right outside the rental car center.
What requirements do I need when renting a car at Savannah/Hilton Head Airport?
Typically, you have to be 21 years and above to rent a car at the airport or anywhere else within Savannah, GA. It's worth noting that there might be extra charges if you're below 25 years on specific vehicle models. An American and Canadian citizen will require a valid, government-issued driver's license, military ID, or a home state ID for retired military personnel. You'll also need car insurance and to present a credit/debit card with sufficient funds to cater to the rental contract.
Do I need to rent a car if I plan to stay in downtown Savannah?
It depends on your traveling plans. Many attractions in downtown Savannah are closely located, and you can walk from your accommodation and explore various POIs, such as visiting the beach on Tybee Island or attending festival events on Riverside Street. If you plan to explore various destinations outside the downtown area, renting a car is an excellent option. It might be a baseball match at Grayson Stadium or a trip to beaches on Hilton Head Island.

I love giving places the benefit of the doubt. I had a two hour wait for my car bc y out guys messed up scheduling for your staff. The staff was great- this is a company problem. Lovely people at the desk- poor management by budget. If picking up a car takes longer than the flight then there’s a serious problem with your company. This is not the first time I’ve had this experience with you. However, I was willing to leave this alone and deal with the situation. Then I turned in my car and got a bill for 70 more for a 45 minute over charge. You guys were two hours late giving us cars and have the audacity to try to charge 70 for 45 minutes? Which I turned the car in within the time alotted and there was no one who suggested it wasn’t there on time. I’m not sure when they got it checked in after I left it. But it is there. Also it’s cleaner than when I got it. The main reason I’m not going to write you an official negative review is that you had an amazing customer service rep who fixed the problem on the phone. You are so lucky to have some great staff that keeps covering for your companies mistakes. The people deserve a raise for dealing with the lack of structure, billing issues, work force issues, and overall unconcern the company has for the time it wastes of its customers. Your staff is saving you.

I reserved a car. I arrived and we were sent to a different counter where 60+ people were lined up. Bottom line, there were NO CARS AVAILABLE. Don’t take a reservation if you don’t have cars for people.

Pros:

After repeated attempts to rent a vehicle that already a reservation, staff was nice enough to give us a vehicle.

Cons:

Don’t reserve more cars then you have available. There too many people that had to get stranded at the airport due to making a reservation and Enterprise not having enough vehicles.

Aweful. My flight got delayed so they cancelled my car because I didn’t pick it up at the exact reservation time. I had to make an emergency trip due to my Grandmother being in the hospital. This was really inconvenient and I will never give Thrifty my business again.

Check in and check out was great! Quick and easy, efficient people working the desk. Didn’t like the price changed at counter verses on line. $10 more per day to upgrade from a van to a compact car. I requested a compact car being it was only me in the car. Doesn’t seem right!

I booked through Kayak and my confirmation had an estimated total of $197.74 but once I landed and gave the Avis desk my confirmation details, they said my rate for the reservation no longer existed even though I had email confirmation from both Avis and Kayak showing the rate. Instead, I was charged $388.77 and the associate told me there was nothing she could do, nor could she give me a cheaper rate on any other vehicle (I asked if I could simply take their cheapest car/rate combo instead). Now, these total charges have exceeded my company's travel policy, so I cannot be reimbursed for the excess fees associated with the overcharged booking. I need an explanation immediately regarding the upcharge and the shady business practice of confirming an estimated quote, then practically doubling it once I arrive to pick up the vehicle.

Arrived after selecting a convertible. No convertible available, so they gave us a jeep with a hard top, and although you could remove it, the sections were large and we were in a hotel with no where to store them. Returned the same day instead of the 6 days we had planned. The staff at the airport were very nice.
