Having access to your own car also means that you can drive to nearby cities of Los Angeles and San Bernardino. At this airport, you can rent cars from several different national brands.
The airport has a separate rental car center where all the agencies are located. To get to the rental car center, you'll go to the lower level of the terminal using the escalator.

Only thing I'd like was the car. Everything else was below standard. Bad customer service over the phone and lack of communication for flight that arrive pass closing time. Need ways to check our vehicle after close. Had to cancel original reservation and book a Uber to get us to are destination. Had to rebook reservation the next day for more money the my original reservation. Overall not pleased with experience, customer service.

Service was great! We were 4 hours late due to airplane mechanical problems. Budget kept the car for us. Easy check in process. Keys in the car ready to go.
Very negative. I was able to reserve my rental just fine but after driving 40 minutes out of my way to pick it up I was unable to actually purchase the van that I had reserved due to the credit card policy. I had my husband and our 5 children with me. It was incredibly frustrating and inconvenient.

Not worth the frustration and dealing with insulting employees.
I reserved a compact vehicle because I wanted the conservative gas mileage. They ran out of compact cars so all the could give me was a huge SUV the got 15 MPG!!!! The corolla I had reserved was 42 MPG on the highway. Being I needed to drive over 1000 miles the reduced MPG cost me a lot of extra money.

Staff was friendly and the pick up and drop off was easy, but the car itself was in very poor condition. It had scratches all over the outside, the upholstery on the ceiling was dirty, and the car sounded like it needed serious maintenance. It could barely accelerate on the freeway and strained on every hill. I was convinced that it was going to break down, and we would need to call for assistance. Miraculously, it made it through the whole trip, but not without a lot of protests from the engine.
* old vehicle - 66,000 miles * chipped windshield * worn inside and out, very loud * additional fees added during pick up

I picked the wrong time based on incorrect recollection of when we were supposed to land, but it was required to wait until that time (two hours later) to pick up my rental. There was no previous walk around and I discovered a couple of rock strikes after I drove out of the facility. Fortunately they were rather small and there was no charge for them, but I was worried about it. Otherwise, the car I ended up with (Dodge Durango), which was not the one I reserved (Toyota Corolla), was quite satisfactory and even got respectable mileage (over 25 mpg). So I was pleased. There was a little difference in the ride, however, as the Durango is built on a truck chassis and it is a bit stiffer than a sedan.

Didn’t get the 12 passenger I booked. Was given a pickup truck and everyone was cramped and uncomfortable. The pickup drove smooth but no room. Was very disappointed because I booked 2 weeks in advance and didn’t get what I wanted.

Poor reps in pickup location. The vehicle I reserved was not available and the rep of Dollar blamed you(kayak.com). I was told by rep that the vehicle you have in your website were not accurate not the vehicles they carry.

Got dropped off there to pick up reserved car, and all we had was a debit card, and they refused to take it. Then we were stuck there. Finally got ahold of friends to come pick us up and went to another lot that did take our debit card ! Oh and let’s not forget on our way to another lot, we picked up phone to call around and see who would take our card and reserved one, but when we got there to pick up that one, found out it was a scam ! So we lost $200 on that deal.

!!!I WILL NEVER RENT A VEHICLE THROUGH KAYAK OR WITH THRIFTY AGAIN!!! Kayak offers an option to purchase insurance, but it does not apply to Thrifty vehicles. As a result, I had to buy additional insurance directly from Thrifty to ensure our rental was covered for the trip. The total cost ended up being over $600 — and that does not include the 5-day rental itself.

Thought I was getting a Celica, got there and was told I would get a Kia Soul, not a comfortable car, so they upgraded me for more money of course to a Nissan Rogue, nicer car of course but cost more.
