Cheap Car Rentals at Harrisburg Airport

Went with the Mystery car, never expecting them to offer me an electric vehicle; that was ridiculous. I didn’t care what model of car I got, but never expected the rate to be an electric vehicle. Without being familiar with the area AND having a limited amount of time, finding and spending time at a “plug” was not an option. So warning to anyone else not a good deal. Until I went to the next available vehicle it was over $100 more. In addition they did not have an economy car just a mid-size. I did not use them. I went to Enterprise.

The mdt airport could use better signage for picking up cars. Service was thorough and friendly and quick. They walked the car with me to make sure all was well. Also ended up with a free upgrade to a mini van.

Our flight didn't come in until 10pm since it ran a little late. The only rental counter that had closed? Unfortunately, the one we'd booked in advance--Hertz.

Pickup lady in MDT Hertz wasn’t very friendly nor accommodating, rented an SUV, she was quite curt and said there was no inventory, no alternative deals, so we went to the next agent who helped us out on a downgrade. Clean car, good overall experience.

I’m not sure if it is standard policy, but I went up to the desk and asked what rate they could give me with AAA and I said kayak was quoting $49. The woman behind the desk said it would be $130 or something. She said I could book through kayak and they would honor it. So, I went through all of it for her to then say, they didn’t have any of that size car and it would be what she originally quoted. Granted I haven’t rented a car in a few years, but I thought they would upgrade you at no cost if they ran out of the type of car you requested. She said because she had quoted me first they couldn’t do that. (Even though I told her the price on kayak before she gave me the quote.) I ended up canceling and going with Budget, but I made sure to book through kayak first and didn’t have any issues with them.

The car had damage that wasn’t chronicled at the rental counter - had to go back in . Also- the rental counter was very difficult to find due to poor signage. Also, the phone charging port didn’t work which was particularly annoying for me since my old phone was dying when I picked the car up.

The car brakes were not well. But the car otherwise looked and ran perfect!! Totally felt safe otherwise. I replied to the initial contact email at the beginning of the rental which seemed courteous but they never replied to my concerns throughout the two week rental. So that would reinforce my disbelief in an initial email message versus a human voice on the phone calling to check how the rental was going at the beginning of the rental.

Vehicle, Nissan Sentra was clean and comfortable. Due to airline flight cancellation, return trip required a change of location for rental car return. Alamo hit me with a $600.00 charge which cost more that the weekly rental rate. Alamo should be upfront with cost information related to change of return location.
