Top tips for hiring a car at El Paso airport
Car rental at El Paso Airport is convenient compared to other transport options because you don't have to wait for a shuttle bus or outside the terminal. This is a great option if you are in town for just one day, flying out at night, and not renting a car until tomorrow. The car rental process here is simpler and less time-consuming than at many other airports around.
The most common cars at the airport car rental center include compact, intermediate, and full-size vehicles. You can also rent a minivan, SUV, or luxury car. An SUV works best if you have a lot of luggage or are traveling with children. On the other hand, a minivan is better for larger families. When you make the reservation, be sure to say if you need an extra driver and mention any special needs that may require hand controls for driving.
This airport is usually busy between the hours of 7 am and 9.30 pm. To avoid too much hassle, opt for a car rental at the airport on either end of this time window. This said, the best time to rent your car at El Paso Airport is usually in the morning.
When you need to return your car rental at El Paso Airport, simply call the rental company and they will come to collect your vehicle. Some companies have return booths in downtown El Paso, which is about 15min from the airport. When you return it, be sure that no damage has occurred during your stay as this can cause delays in returning the car or even a denial of service altogether.
Book your car hire at El Paso airport at least 2 weeks before your trip in order to get a below-average price

You can also get a free cup of coffee or tea while you wait. Some car rental companies offer free shuttle service to and from the airport for their customers. This is a great option if you want to avoid the hassle of taking public transport or have too many bags to carry on foot.

I could not check in ahead of time because the link would not load and then it said my vehicle wasn’t ready so I ended waiting over 30 mins past my pick up time to when I could be helped the an agent. Also tried calling the rental office and it was impossible to get through the automated phone service
They claimed the car I had rented was “recalled,” I looked it up, it had not been. They didn’t have anything for me to drive and did not help me whatsoever. Furthermore, they would not refund me.
It was a very confusing situation. Very disorganized - you people rent cars that you don’t have available. You have no problem taking peoples money though.

I left my suit coat in the back seat. I filed a lost-and-found claim, but they said they didn't find the suit coat. Someone obviously stole it out of the car when I returned it.

Everything ok. Except the front windshield it was pretty nasty and was hard to see when the sun was infront of you when you’re driving and at nights with headlights. But overall it was good.

It was impossible for me to get a rental because i didn't had a physical credit card. We live in an era where everything is digital yet i was required to have a physical credit card and a physical license. I had everything to get the rental but just because it's all digital it was impossible for me to get a car. I understand that you need to have guarantees but it's ridiculous. I had an emergency and just because your technology is out of date not only you deny me the service in this company but treat me like i was going to scam you. Simply terrible.
