【Real Experience Renting a Car at Zurich Airport | Lazy Version Summary】 ✅ Pros: 1⃣ Super Convenient Location: The pickup point is directly opposite the airport arrival hall, a 5-minute walk with clear signs. 2⃣ High Service Efficiency: Staff are fluent in English, and the process is completed within 10 minutes, keys handed over directly. 3⃣ Reliable Vehicle Condition: Received a car less than 2 years old, full fuel, clean interior, Swiss car rental quality is trustworthy. ⚠ Notes: ▪ Price Excludes Tax: On-site payment may be about 50% higher than the booking price (e.g., website shows 100 CHF, actual payment around 150). ▪ Be Cautious About Model Upgrades: Avoid being tempted by 'free upgrades' unless necessary, as they might come with hidden tax and insurance costs. ▪ Two Options for Insurance: → Hassle-free: Choose full coverage from the rental company (about 30 CHF extra per day, no need for inspection at drop-off). → Cost-saving: Buy third-party insurance in advance (remember to take videos of the entire car during pickup, especially wheels and windows).

Alamo and Enterprise share the same counter, resulting in very long wait times. Cars cannot be picked up early. Next time I'll choose Europcar.

The rear window of our rental car was smashed in Rome. We wanted to exchange the car in Rome, but the contact number provided by Alamo was not answered at all. We went directly to their airport rental location, but their staff said they couldn't handle this issue and told us to keep calling the number, leaving us hanging. We visited two airport rental locations, both with the same response. In the end, the problem remained unsolved, and we had to drive back to Geneva to return the car.

Received a traffic violation locally and had to pay it myself. The rental company does not provide the service to pay it on behalf of customers!
