Roanoke Airport (ROA), also referred to as the Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport, is a safe and convenient location to secure a rental car. With a Roanoke Airport car rental, you can not only explore historic Roanoke Virginia, but also the surrounding natural wonders of the George Washington and Jefferson National Forest, as well. Driving to locations within the city in a rental car can be as much as over an hour faster than taking public transportation. In a Roanoke Airport car rental, you can visit and see what you want on your own schedule.
Choosing a car rental at Roanoke Airport is ideal because the airport itself is such a convenient place to be situated once you have arrived on your plane and you need to secure ground transportation. The airport has an ATM so you can get cash, Airport Ambassadors to help you with any questions you might have, and a restaurant with a full bar so that you can refresh and reboot if you need to. The airport also features a pet relief area that you can take advantage of if you are traveling with a service animal or a four-legged friend. Vending machines are also available near the car rental counters.
One distinct advantage of securing a car rental at Roanoke Airport as opposed to renting a car from elsewhere in Roanoke is that the car rental agencies at ROA tend to have longer hours than agencies in town. For instance, Avis at ROA is open from 7 am until 11:30 pm, compared to Avis car rentals in town in Roanoke which are open from 9 am until 5:30 pm.
When you secure a Roanoke Airport car rental, you can take advantage of services from the agencies that will help expedite the rental process. With Avis, you can take advantage of Preferred Service and After-Hour Returns. With Budget, you can take advantage of Fastbreak Service and After-Hour Returns. With Alamo, you can take advantage of Accelerated Check-In and After-Hour Returns. Signing up for these services is usually free.

Hard to have to drop car when office was open in Franklin. Would have liked to return the car early and drop keys without checking out. Had to return twice to drop off location.

Pros:

Clean and well equipped car. The agent was nice and professional

Cons:

Agent not masked. Not informed when reserving that there would be an additional $200 deposit placed on my credit card. When at the counter I was told that it would be released upon return of car. I don’t know if it has been returned yet, but I was on a trip for an interview during the pandemic and placing an additional $200 would have made my rental decision clear Togo with a different company.

Jason, Dec 2020

Pros:

Staff was friendly.

Cons:

The vehicle was filthy inside. There were crumbs everywhere in the back seats. The non smoking car was definitely smoked in a reeked of cigarettes. The navigation screen was busted. On top of all that, one of the tires had a significant leak and I had to put air in it several times. Very bad experience.

Weeks after my reservation, after flying across the country, when I went to pick up my rental, I was then told “you can’t rent without a credit card”. I’ve rented quite a few cars over the past several years and have never owned a credit card of any kind. They offered zero help in trying to come up with a solution, just a hard and fast “you’re screwed have fun being stranded (with a family of 6)” thankfully we had family in the area that were willing and able to let us borrow a vehicle until we could get a rental from a legitimate rental company.
