KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Severn

  • Car rentals in Severn have enhanced flexibility and convenience compared to public buses and taxis. With a rental car, you control your schedule and route, saving time and accessing remote areas. Attractions like the National Electronics Museum and Arundel Mills Mall are easily reached with a rental. Additionally, a car provides comfort for groups and ample storage for shopping. Renting a car is also more cost-effective than using taxis, especially if you intend to visit more areas within Severn and its neighborhood.
  • Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) are Severn's main international airports. At BWI, car rentals are conveniently situated on the lower level of the terminal garage. Follow signs to the rental car facility from the baggage claim area. At DCA, Severn car rentals are in the garages adjacent to the terminals, with clear signage upon arrival. Both airports provide a range of rental options, granting travelers easy access to vehicles for seamless exploration of Severn and its attractions.
  • You need to remember a few things if you want to have exciting experience in using car rentals in Severn. The key among these things is always being cautious of jaywalkers, especially near urban areas. The city's driving style leans towards moderate speed and adherence to traffic rules. However, remain vigilant as some drivers might exhibit impatience. Generally, drivers in Severn adhere to traffic laws, but it's wise to stay attentive, follow speed limits, and yield to pedestrians. Defensive driving and respect for pedestrians will provide a safe and pleasant experience while navigating Severn's streets.
  • Using car rentals in Severn may entail challenges like navigating complex intersections, such as Veterans Highway and Quarterfield Road, especially if you're unfamiliar with the city. The morning and evening rush hours, which occur around 7 am-9 am and 4 pm-6 pm, respectively, pose some challenges, making travel through the city unnecessarily longer. Among the most affected roads during such times are Route 170 and Route 175. Avoid peak traffic hours for smoother travel through the city, and use GPS apps to navigate unfamiliar areas whenever possible.

The wait to pick up the car was long since Avis (and probably other rental firms) had been experiencing shortages of vehicles. They tried to convince me to take a different size car, but finally found the size I had reserved. I wasn't particularly thrilled about their "gas" policy. As there was a charge for what was in the tank (which seemed high to me), although one could return the car without refilling. I'm not sure if I came out on the "good end" of that policy; I would have rather received a full tank initially with a requirement to return it with a full tank, which I think would have been less costly. The car also had almost no windshield washer fluid when I picked it up. The counter employees, were, however, very friendly and helpful at pick-up, although one of them spent a what seemed like a lot of time just chatting with a customer while a line of people waiting to pick up cars had formed.

We stood in line for over 2 hours and then I'm the end were given a plug in hybrid car that had not been plugged in, had been smoked in which made my wife and kids nauseous, the car had been configured with weird and frustrating restrictions that wouldn't allow me to disable the incredibly intrusive and inaccurate parking sensors that beeped constantly, even when driving down the road at one point. Imagine the car yelling at you for being too close to every car passing you in the other lane. Turning the car in could not have been easier, everything else about this rental was absolutely terrible. I will never use budget again after this

This is the second time I have booked a Budget rental through Kayak / Expedia and Budget has had NO cars when I arrived. Everyone was pushed to the AVIS counter, of which I was 30th in line. After waiting over an hour and seeing little progress, I cancelled my reservation, rebooked with HERTZ, and had a car in 20 min. I paid extra to do so, but avoided a lot of frustration. I doubt I will book any rental car with Kayak in the future as this was the second terrible experience I had at BWI specifically.

Car was fine but wow the worst pick up experience ever. Waited forever in line with one person working. Took almost as long as my flight. The computer system was old and slow I had to run my credit card three times. When we finally went to exit no one was at the kiosk and we had to wait again until she came back to check us out.

It was a very easy and smooth experience. Unfortunately it was as I expected though… when you select a car and they say range rover or similar, you should always expect to never be able to get a range rover. It’s always gonna be something similar. I ended up with a BMW X5 which was great. But if I was told X5 or similar, I wouldn’t have chose that car class or expense.

I liked the ease of the rental process, with no surprises. The rate was excellent. The fee to process the toll (from a bridge crossing) was acceptable at only $2.48. The only problem was with the Chevy car. It did not have connection for the current normal USB port and I couldn’t keep my phone charged. The could provide or sell an adapter.

I went to the counter but didn't finish the booking since the agent required that I produce all of my insurance papers not just my insurance card...which I had. This is the typical proof of insurance. They had some questionable reason for this requirement but it was obvious that it was just a ploy to force me to purchase their expensive insurance. I walked away and didn't finish the booking.
