KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Abilene

  • If you often need to go outside, car rentals in Abilene are the most time- and money-efficient option. Numerous lines of the public transportation system, such as the Metro bus, do not operate on holidays, weekends, or during the weekend. A further reason why hiring a vehicle is the superior mode of transportation is because some routes only run during the weekdays when people are commuting to and from work. Renting a vehicle allows you to see Abilene and its surrounding natural environment more swiftly and in more comfort than walking or using public transit would provide.
  • With a nice set of wheels, you can visit the vibrant city of Abilene, Texas, do your shopping, and dine out at the Beehive restaurant, which is only 3 minutes away. Affordable cars from the cheap car rentals in Abilene give you the chance to view the attractive great art destination with some of the best museums and galleries. Drive to Clay Sports about 8.1 miles away.
  • You can access car rentals in Abilene at Abilene (ABI) Airport. The airport features a vehicle rental facility operated by Avis, Budget, and Hertz, so you should have no problem hiring a car there. Consequently, renting a car at this airport is a reasonable option to consider. In order to hire a vehicle from any of these firms, you must be at least 18 years old. A valid driver's license and a credit card in good standing are additional prerequisites for this employment at the time of application. If you are not a citizen of the United States or the United Kingdom, you must also possess an International Driver's Permit.
  • Collect your car once you land at the Abilene Airport. The airport houses different car rental companies that best suit your budget. It has several car rental agencies on-site with various vehicles that you may prefer depending on your specific needs. Always remember to inquire about your preferred agency's opening hours. You can find cheap car rentals in Abilene through Hertz.
  • You must present a valid driver's license issued from your home country in order to rent a car in Abilene. The license is an eligible permit when driving Abilene car rentals. The license should be in the English language and have your photograph. If this is the case, you will not need to obtain a translation of the license. If the license is not in English,you will need to obtain a translation in your home country. The most common form of translation is an International Driver's Permit.
  • You can comfortably use car rentals in Abilene and have an easy time. Abilene's roads are maintained in high shape, and the city's drivers are typically courteous. Since the majority of highways in this city travel through densely populated regions, defensive driving techniques are essential. Maintain a three-second distance between your car and the vehicle in front of you, communicate your intentions clearly and immediately, and remain in your lane as much as possible while driving in Abilene. These actions will assist you in avoiding unneeded tension.
  • Abilene car rentals make it simple to go about the surrounding area, but drivers should be aware of a few obstacles, the most significant of which are the city's congested and congested streets. Because of the narrow width of the roads, there are fewer automobiles that can use them at the same time. As a direct consequence of this, these routes often see considerable congestion in the early morning, between the hours of 7 am and 9 am, and then again in the late afternoon, between the hours of 5:30 pm and 6:30 pm. If you do not want to be trapped in traffic during the periods mentioned, you should avoid being on the roads during those times.

Good and Bad: Good: The Toyota Camry was very. The Abilene, Texas airport Avis counter was excellent. The 355 mile drive was comfortable. The car was clean and gas mileage was very good. Bad: There was construction in Oklahoma that slowed our trip some. We arrived at the Tulsa International Airport one hour late (3:00 PM instead of 2:00 PM). Avis charged us for another full day with no consideration for roadway circumstances. This brought the total for a 25-hour, 355 mile rental of a to $320.00, doubling the cost. Would not recommend or book again with Avis.

Although it's been awhile since I rented, he went up and beyond to find my Wizard number. Quick check out and check in. The car was comfortable, but had a feature that apparently stops the engine when at a stop. I really didn't like this feature of the vehicle. Otherwise, a very good rental!

In person customer service members were great. The car was dirty on the inside, makeup on the side of the drivers seat, some kind of dried substance on the passenger door/floor, general build up.

I had forgot the cable of my iPhone charger in the car. I had dropped the keys in the box and locked the car. I went back and the cable was there but no attendant was present. I came back few hours later and they reported that the car has not been cleaned but sure enough the cable was gone and no one has seen it. Very unprofessional behavior to say the least.

The overall extension process and maybe price should be considered to be locked in at whatever rate you booked it at to begin with if extended. Just an idea.

Pros:

Pickup was great. Drop off was backed up and looked really understaffed for the volume of cars being returned.

Cons:

Drop off area better managed. We had to walk a long way to the shuttle bus terminal with all our suitcases in tow. Usually the drop is much closer to the building.

I booked a rental car on Kayak with Enterprise but there were no cars available upon my arrival. When I asked to make sure that i was not charged, the Enterprise representative was unable to confirm one way or the other as whether i was charged. I tried calling Kayak but they were closed.

Cons:

Don't accept a booking if there are not rental cars available. 24 hour customer service should be available with Kayak.
