Top tips for renting a car at Dallas/Fort Worth Airport
- Renting a vehicle from a car rental at Dallas/Fort Worth Airport offers flexibility and convenience for travelers who wish to travel DFW to Downtown Dallas hassle-free. Not only will travelers be able to arrive at their destination in or around Dallas faster, but they will also explore the city's best sites with ease. Driving yourself from this bustling airport is also advantageous if you carry heavy luggage since it will save you the trouble of dragging it along everywhere you go. Lastly, booking a car can be cheaper as there will be no need to connect with other transportation means from your public transportation terminals downtown.
- Finding DFW's rental facility is easy since it is near the entrance at the southern end of the airport. Arriving travelers should first exit the arrivals area and head straight to the ground level, where the free shuttle to the car rental at Dallas/Fort Worth Airport stops. Since the car rental center is situated a few minutes away from DFW's terminals, travelers must hop onboard the complimentary bus departing every 10min to 15min. Overhead signs are available to help travelers find the complimentary bus.
- After the agreed renting duration expires, travelers must take back the rental vehicle to DTW's rental center. Some well-marked signs are in place to direct renters from the entrance to the drop-off area. DTW's on-site car rental companies all have their rental return area located at the international parkway to the airport's east. Travelers can take the complimentary bus from the rental facility, which will drop them off at the various terminals. Travelers can return the vehicles after office hours but should drop the keys in a drop box at the facility. However, any car rental at Dallas/Fort Worth Airport expects renters to refill the gas tank before returning the rental.
- The bustling DFW airport has considerable traveler traffic, and picking up a rental vehicle can be hectic and may take longer than usual. Since the airport has more passenger traffic in the morning and evening when most travelers land, the lines at the rental desks tend to be longer and slower. Travelers can avoid long lines by going directly to the facility immediately after they land. Travelers should get to DFW before 3 pm when traffic is slow-moving to ensure they drop off their vehicles on time.

Pros:
Staff were friendly, and the car was clean when i received it.Cons:
Having my reserved car ready to go, instead of having to wait for over 4 hours in line and to see if i even will have a rental car, (the staff told us they are out of rentals) Also.....have your Thrifty counters open! Both locations were CLOSED and i had to deal with another rental company to just get my reservation for pickup/drop off.10.0 Wonderful

Cons:
Made a reservation two months ago for a rental car for my trip. Get to the rental car pick up and they proceed to tell me we don't have any cars and it will be a 3-4 hour wait on a car. I have a two-year-old, and a pregnant wife that needed to eat and you wanted me to wait 3-4 hours. That was wrong why take my reservation if you could not fulfill it?2.0 Poor
May 2021
Pros:
The single young lady who was working the morning (@ 7am) of May 8 did her best to handle the surge of travelers waiting to get their rental car. There were approximately 25-35 people waiting while I was in line. Also... I want the individual working the Hertz station in the garage to be given an award. MR. Thomas B (I cannot recall just last name)...when I explained my situation trying to get to a college graduation that was starting in 50 minutes....took the initiative to provide me excellent customer service as an individual. Customer service that Dollar/Thrifty FAILED TO DELIVER AS A COMPANY.!!!Cons:
It would have been nice to have had at least two people working the morning of 8 May. Due to the lack of proper staffing, I almost MISSED my niece's COLLEGE GRADUATION!!!!Dollar

Jun. 2017
Pros:
Car was clean and in good condition.Cons:
Alamo refused to honor the terms of the contract that we initially established with them and for which they accepted payment (i.e. Fraud) because the reservation primary driver was not the person that paid the prepaid amount (despite that person being present, with ID and credit card used, at the time of pickup). They proceeded to establish a new reservation at a higher rate, refusing to honor the original rate (i.e. Bait & Switch) of the reservation. It took a significant amount of time with multiple customer service agents at both check-in and check-out to get them to abide by the original terms of the agreement. Very questionable business practices, I have to wonder how many other people who were not willing to go through the hassle of dealing with their byzantine customer service system have been overcharged because of this.10.0 Wonderful
