For our recent trip to Destin, Florida, we went through Costco to rent a car, and wound up with…read moreBudget. Getting your car at the Destin Airport is simple - you check in at the counter at baggage claim, get your keys, and walk about 1,000 steps to your car. The car was clean and fully fueled. We had no issues with it at all. It was comfortable. The only issue, something we hadn't noticed before we left, was the seats were worn in the back. We were a little concerned we would be blamed for it, but fortunately, that didn't happen. We purchased our fuel through Budget in advance - the gas prices near the airport were very high so I'm glad we did. We used about 3/4 of the tank so it saved us some money. Aside from the minor wear, it was a good experience. We'd rent from Budget if we go to Destin again.

Checkin was okay, nothing spectacular. Offered all the upgrades that we declined…read more Told us which parking spot our rental was in and we walked to the end of the lot. Quick and easy exit of the parking lot! The car has dings and low windshield washer fluid. The airport was small so it was easy to find the car rental areas.

I like this smaller airport because you can walk to the rental counter, and the cars are parked just outside. Everything is explained to you at the counter, and they'll let you know what cars there are to choose from before getting to the parking lot. Just drive out, don't need to do an additional check when leaving the lot like at many rental agencies. Returning the car was quick and easy and someone drove me up to the door even though its super close. Although I'm concerned what would happen if a flight arrives late, because they close at 11 PM and I almost was changed to a flight arriving at 10:56 PM.

But I was over charged for a cat piss smelling car that was filled with sand and never cleaned. We took it and got wipes and brushed it out. When bring the car back we had a long line for it to check in. He said put the keys on the dash and check it in when he can. So hours later he checked it in and so we get charged late fees. Got on a chat right away when I saw the bill and they said nothing they could do a manager will have to call you. It is now Thursday and no call. But my card is charged. I never get this experience at Enterprise at my local one. What a nightmare. Nothing like trying to go on vacation and dealing with all this bs after. Update: I have been on a chat, called and emailed. Three points of contact and still no one can help me they keep telling me someone will call me back. Emailed like asked and still no response.
