The folks at the Pittsburgh Airport (PIT) make car rental at Pittsburgh Airport easy. Seven large national rental car companies have an operation at the airport, and you will find the customer service counters adjacent to the baggage claim area on the first level of the terminal. All their cars are on the first level of the parking garage that is adjacent to the terminal building.
When you are ready to turn in your car rental at Pittsburgh Airport, simply follow the signage you will see as you approach the airport property on Highway 376. Once you are in the parking garage and have parked your car in the appropriate stall for your rental car company, lock your car and gather up all your belongings, then drop your keys and your completed contract in the provided dropbox. If you need to speak to a staff member about your rental, most of the rental car companies have staff on-site seven days per week from early in the morning until very late in the evening.
There are several transportation options to get you from the airport to the center of Pittsburgh, including bus and taxi services. The trip is a rather long one and this can be a problem on the bus, especially if you have a large group or you are caring a lot of luggage. A taxi is a convenient option, but it can be expensive, especially if you need to make several trips during your stay in Pittsburgh. That is why a car rental at Pittsburgh Airport is such a great choice because it is cost-effective and convenient.
Like any airport in a major city, you a going to find that trying to rent a car can be more difficult during both morning and evening rush-hour periods, as well as during the holidays when there are a lot of people traveling. A good way to mitigate any of these waits is to make sure you reserve a Pittsburgh Airport car rental with one of the companies at this airport so you know they will have a car waiting for you when you arrive on your flight.

I was renting this car to drive to my cousin’s out of town funeral while my car was being repaired. I had a very tight turnaround screenshot and reviewed all of the terms & conditions in advance to avoid any major issues, particularly because I do not have a credit card. There was no language indicating a credit card is required for transactions at some Alamo locations. When I got to Alamo learned that this Pittsburgh airport location requires that you use a credit card, purportedly due to the $300 hold that is placed on the card. I had to take an Uber home and wasn’t able to get a rental from Enterprise (there are no other Alamo locations within an hour of Pittsburgh) until they opened at 9:30 am the following morning. I was late to my cousin’s funeral and was not able to give a eulogy and left my aunt scrambling to find someone else to speak. I caused her so much stress while she is mourning her son which is unforgivable. I checked on Alamo’s website and saw that there was language regarding possible credit card requirements when booking. If I had tried to book directly with Alamo, I would have seen that and found a different car rental provider. I thought I could use Kayak to save money, but there are some things that are more important than money. I will be actively discouraging anyone from using Kayak whenever I can.

Pros:

I came back a bit worry because there was no body to give the car to and we saw several living it in a line at Avis so we did to

Cons:

I know it is a bit difficult to have some one at 4:20 am at the airport so you could feel a bit more secure about the deliver of the car

I was charged over $100.00 to use the turnpike. There should be another option other than just charging for unlimited use. I only drove on it from Ohio border to Pitts airport. Might as well just got an Uber or cab!

Tom at pickup sounded like a corporate robot rather than a sentient being while dealing with my pickup at which there were no cars that I reserved available. Thankfully the woman in the hut in the garage was more human and was able to do an easy switch (after I saw that there was in fact a car I could have in the garage). Either way I will be using Enterprise in the future—I never should have tried another company.

Absolutely awful. They Stranded me at the airport at 11:30 at night and said tough luck figure it out yourself. Told me to wait until morning when they would have more keys, which they still didn't after I slept on the floor of the Airport terminal. I'll be looking for a refund.

As soon as I booked my car Rental a person from Hertz was calling me saying that they may not have a vehicle for me because if someone else needed a vehicle and was willing to pay the higher price I would be bumped and I had to pay 139.00 more. I wasn’t sure if I was being scammed so I hung up and called Hertz myself and explained the situation she ask for the number and checked into it and informed me that the number was legitimate and that a car could not be guaranteed even though I had already prepaid. I told her that I was not paying anything additional and would arrive at the time selected to pick up my rental. I arrived on the day and time and the counter girl was nice she wasn’t to knowledge on my questions and had to ask for help from coworkers multiple times which was fine I did end up having to pay the extra money for fees and Taxes which I feel should have been included in the original price offered I did not like the car at all it was so compact and I would not recommend if traveling on Turnpikes or Highways or in any type of windy or Rainy weather. Nissan Kicks 2024 was the vehicle

We had car issues, an indicator came on that the engine power was being throttled. The car would stall at stops - we'd have to put it in park to start the engine again. We tried to call Hertz many times but could never get through to them so we drove 8+ hours with car issues

Bad. Budget did not have the standard SUV that I booked. They forced me to choose between a pickup truck and a van. Both are unappealing and I did not book those. When asked why I was being forced to choose between the two, the Budget representative said they did not have any SUVs available. This was not accurate because when I went to the garage to pick up my vehicle, I saw some SUVs.

From the grumpy woman at the counter to a vehicle that apparently wasn’t serviced and less than a full tank with no one outside where the cars were located to address the issues, what can I say? Oh, the car didn’t breakdown so for that I am thankful! Other than that it was by far the worst car rental experience in my personal or professional life!
