Cheap Car Rentals in Zurich Airport

We were never pressurized to take out extra insurance since we were covered with our credit card, which was great The lady who helped us was quick and assured us our credit card insurance was enough. It’s. When we returned the car, we told them we had made a little scrape right at the bottom, they took pictures and said we should claim from our credit card, but they were going to charge us €940,. At first we accepted it , and then said a scratch like that cost $940, the guy said, no, you dented the door as well. We absolutely did not dent the door.. Comparing that door to the other side door they were both the same , so I got into an argument about the door. Another assistant came along who also compared both doors and said no there was no dent, the other guy was wrong, so from €940 we suddenly only owed 400.- no apologies just crooked business as usual. This is always what people complain about with car rental agencies. They try and rip you off with dents and scratches that you never made….. always take pictures and check their little drawings of where the damages are when you collect the car. This always adds another 30 minutes onto your car rental. We had the same experience in Italy with another car rental company. Wonderful people they are.!!!!

They did not try to push extra insurance on us.

Easy on and out. SEAT car was great.

Very smooth, easy pick up & drop off. Got upgraded to an automatic transmission which I appreciated. Friendly, capable staff throughout.

No one available at drop off. Key placed in Box

drop off at Munich airport to a central location, without being scanned was confusing and worrisome

They didn’t have the car I wanted and I got lumbered with a much bigger people carrier that was hard to manoeuvre up mountain roads.

Clean and new car Also upgraded

Fast

Pick up in Kloten was quick and easy. I never like trying to be tricked into upcharging the price of my vehicle with add-ons such as extra insurance toll passes and such. These can double the price of your rental and your charge card covers you for the extra insurance. Having said that, we were charged over $550 for a scrape mark on the rear tire. Yes, a scrape mark. No damage to the rim and the tire was fine. We were only informed of this after we returned home. Unfortunately Avis, like almost all rental car companies are always out to "get you" with extra charges.
