It felt like an attempted bait and switch with their "Manager's Special" to force me into an expensive upgrade. And, none of the online check-in process was useful as I had to do it all again at the counter.Reviewed Oct 19 2024

They charged me $38 for being an “underage driver”- I am 51. Realized when I got back from my trip and cannot get a human on the phone. Sent an email 4 days ago, so guess will have to take it up with my CC company.Reviewed Sep 11 2024

It was horrible. We missed a connection in Charlotte after sitting on the taxiway for 2.5 hours waiting for a gate. We tried to get a rental car to get to our final destination. They accepted a reservation. We left the secured area of the airport to pick up the car. Just kidding, no cars. Went back to the terminal and got in line for TSA. After > hour, TSA shut down with no warning. We were stranded and had to sleep on the floor in the security corral. Rude and abusive treatment by airport staff, including management, made a bad situation much worse. In the future, we will avoid Dollar and Charlotte if at all humanly possible.Reviewed Jul 28 2024

When we were near the end of a grueling day of international travel and east coast travel delays, Dollar accepted reservations for a car to help us complete a trip after we missed a connection. When we arrived at the connecting airport, we left the secured area to get the rental car to continue our trip. We were informed at the counter they had no cars available, nor did any other rental car companies at the airport. After an enlightening discussion about the DEFINITION OF THE WORD "RESERVATION" a la Seinfeld, we made our way back to the terminal to sleep on the floor since there were no hotel rooms available, either. After we stood in line at security for an hour, TSA abruptly closed for the night, leaving hundreds, potentially thousands, of people stuck between the curb and security with no services other than restrooms. Many people were crying because they were missing late night flights. After sleeping on the floor in the security corral, we finally got back through TSA to wait several more hours for our rebooked flight. Why do I BLAME DOLLAR for this nightmare? Because if they hadn't LIED ABOUT HAVING CARS AVAILABLE AND ACCEPTED RESERVATIONS, which we thought solved the problem, we wouldn't have had a travel experience so bad we are canceling all plans including Dollar, the airport, and the airline.Reviewed Jul 25 2024

Top tips for renting a car from Dollar at Charlotte Douglas Airport

  • Dollar car rentals at Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) is open from 6 am until 12 am daily, which is ideal for travelers arriving in the morning or late at night. However, you cannot pick up your vehicle between 12 am and 6 am. Also, make sure to plan enough buffer time between when your flight lands and when the rental center closes in case you are delayed.
  • Those who book a car at Dollar car rentals at Charlotte Douglas Airport (CLT) can browse a wide selection of affordable vehicles offered through KAYAK. Some options include compact SUVs, intermediate SUVs, economy cars, sedans, standard SUVs, pick-up trucks, and minivans. If you’re traveling with up to five people, consider booking a luxury or premium SUV. These vehicles have more comfortable seats than other SUVs and offer premium amenities, including Bluetooth connectivity and USB ports throughout the car. Some of the larger vehicles also include a rearview camera to help the driver back up and park.
  • If saving money is your priority, consider booking the Supplier Choice. This option allows the Dollar location staff to pick your car from what’s available when you arrive. This is a good choice for drivers who don’t have specific car needs or don’t care what kind of vehicle they drive. However, we don’t recommend this option for drivers traveling in a group who need extra space for bags or for customers who only want a fuel-efficient car.
  • Dollar car rentals at Charlotte Douglas Airport offer several vehicle types with all-wheel drive (AWD) capabilities, including standard and luxury SUVs. All these cars have four doors and can fit seven people and three medium-sized suitcases. While an all-wheel drive (AWD) car isn’t necessary if you plan to only drive in the city, it’s a smart choice for people who plan to drive in the countryside or on rough roads.
