I used a dealership far from the airport because they had a convertible available, which I had confirmed as reserved. I paid extra to Uber to the rental office after my flight landed, only to discover that they rented my car to someone else. I will never use this office again.6.0 Okay

The problem was kayak. I needed to pick up A car at Tampa international airport. My search was Tampa international airport drop off Fort Myers Airport and of course I look for the best price like anyone else. To find out it was off the airport a few miles I ended up paying extra because kayak is being very devious should be against the law. I will never use kayak again for flights cars or hotels apparently this has been a problem. Bye-bye KayakAvis
