It was an excellent experience. I chose Hertz this time for my first car rental abroad, and overall it felt great. I will choose them again next time!

I picked up the car at night, so there was basically no line. The vehicle provided was nice. This is not my first time renting from here, and the experience is still great.

The store is shared with Hertz, and the staff assist each other, so the operation is highly efficient. There is a shuttle bus between the terminals, with frequent trips and an immediate pickup and drop-off, which is very convenient.

Overall it's okay. During the trip, the front windshield got a small chip from a stone on the highway, but it didn't affect the drive. The customer service was not very professional—after explaining the situation, they asked me to report it to the police, but later I was told I could register it online following the instructions on the phone.

1) First car assigned was not clean and had feces in the back seat. I had to go in and have another car assigned. 2) When I dropped off car, it was clean, had a full tank of gas, and was on time. I was told I would get a receipt sent to me. Not only did I not get a receipt sent, but I was charged an additional US$80.01 without any explanation. I have now had to put the charge into dispute with my credit card company.

Avis at RDU makes everyone wait forever. This has been happening ever since I moved to the RTP area, i.e., since August. While I am an AVIS preferred customer, I find that I could not use my "Wizard" or AVIS preferred number for this booking and therefore have to wait in line - it has never been less than an hour waiting time. If they assign you the car quickly, you'll spend 30+ minutes waiting for the car to actually become available. Or you might just spend an hour standing in queue. My flight from New York was 1 hr 48 minutes long. I spent 1 hr waiting in line at Avis RDU. I have also rented from Hertz/Thrifty in the same RDU location. Their process was painless and swift. The staff at AVIS is trying their best but obviously something is not working. I think it's because the staff are so polite that customers like me return time after time despite the frustrating and lengthy pick up process.
