Do not, I repeat, do not fly into Augusta State Airport or ever rent a car from Hertz there. Fly into Bangor and rent a car there. When I booked my Hertz car, they stated they were open 9am-Noon on Saturdays. I called them and confirmed this. I returned at 11am today, 9/18, for my 2pm flight to Boston to discover that they were now closed and I would be charged two more rental days when they reopen on Monday. Don't get ripped off like I did. Avoid this airport and Hertz especially.

Pros:

Staff didn’t even get up to inspect car when I returned it. While I waited for my ride, he checked the fuel gauge.

Cons:

When a flight was canceled, I called and said I’d be a day later to pick up. The price was not changed. When I asked if I could return it 35 miles away at another Hertz, you said it would be an additional $757
