Top tips for renting a car at Fresno Yosemite Airport
Are you looking for comfort and flexibility when exploring Fresno’s attractions? Consider getting a car rental at Fresno Airterminal Airport (FAT). The airport features various car rental agencies, with counters located conveniently within the terminal building. The car rental offers you quick access to your destination, saving you the delays of public transportation.

Getting a car rental also offers you the freedom to choose your preferred ride and schedule.
When returning a car rental at Fresno Airterminal Airport, keep an eye on the blue signage leading you to the car rental returns area. Consider filling up your gas tank as a fuel station some miles from the airport to save up a few coins since refueling at the car rental agency will cost you more. Also, plan your drop-off trip to avoid incurring additional charges for late returns. However, if you anticipate a late return, inform your rental provider in advance. You may also consider dropping off your rental car in a different location, but you will incur extra charges. Check for any further damage with the help of the car rental staff to avoid unexpected additional costs.
Various payment methods are accepted for rental cars at Fresno Airterminal Airport. However, for guaranteed security, most car rental agencies on-site prefer credit card reservations. Typically, the major credit cards can be used to make payments, including American Express, Visa, and MasterCard. Other payment options are allowed, such as debit cards, but you will undergo additional screening, and additional requirements will apply. Usually, most rental providers at the airport allow debit cards with Visa and MasterCard logos.

Fresno Airterminal Airport car rental reviews and directory
I reserved a premium car and was given a Kia Soul as that was all they had left. In addition, the car’s alignment was way off and it kept pulling to the right. I was very disappointed and uncomfortable on my drive.

We stood in line for an hour. People were cutting in line but no one stopped them. When I finally got to the counter they did not have the car we reserved and infact had no SUVs or cats AT ALL. I had to take a truck or nothing. I stood at the counter for 20 more minutes for them to figure it out. Terrible experience and I will never do that again. TURO all the way.

Was overcharged even after I asked about the price.
Everything was great from start to finish on our one-way rental from the Central Valley to Palm Springs. Staff at our pickup and our dropoff locations were friendly and easy to interact with. The car itself (Toyota Corolla Cross) was great, especially when we encountered some light snow on the drive over the mountains.

Everything was simple and the staff were friendly and helpful.
I did not receive this rental and was still charged for the insurance. Bad experience overall. I called the day before asked if I could use my debit card and to clarify insurance. Was told yes. I could use my navy federal card for this. Arrived- could not use it. Wasted my whole morning and had to take my personal vehicle. Then had to perform multiple services to my car for the trip and had to replace two perfectly good tires when I returned because of road conditions. Cost me and I STILL have not received a refund for insurance I never got. Scam.

The people working for Alamo were super nice. Checking in was a little long since there was only one person running the counter. But it was late at night so that’s to be expected. Actually getting the car and returning the car was fast and easy. Would definitely rent from them again!

Truck was in good condition and drove well. Moderately clean, although obvious drink spills only partially cleaned up. The hour wait for pick-up was obnoxious since I was 5th in line and there were two people working the counter. Clearly their system sucks and they don’t care. Definitely going with enterprise next time.
Car was not clean Cruze was not working and I was drive 800 miles on feet when I complained they were rude

The staff was friendly, professional. Check in was easy. Convenience drop box for after hours return. Didn’t like that they gave a parking spot number and you have to go find the rental car on your own after you sign all the paperwork. What is the car is dirty? Or unacceptable? What if you have questions about scratches or cosmetic damages that you notice at the time of pick up? There’s no one to talk to about it. There are no signs to get out of the parking lot either. You just drive around until you find an exit!

From pick up to drop off, the customer service was great. Very friendly and personable. The car was also great. It ran smooth, no problems, great on gas. However, the inside wasn't horrible but could have used a little cleaning. Other than that, my experience was a 9.5 out of 10.
Amazing! No line at the friendly staff. Great car. Great price.

Staff was rude , very rude , I guess their work culture is bad . Not one time, every time I had to experience. They overcharged me. I returned car earlier , they still overcharged, i requested to fix it , staff said it’s not their job , I will need to call 1-800 number, Interestingly, in similar situation I had with Alamo, Alamo staff fixed it right way .

Avis staff is very rude. They try to let you down and don’t try to listen to customer concerns. They overcharged me and refused to fix it and asked me to call their 1-800 number. They don’t respect your time at all. Very bad customer service.

Good overall. Vehicle wasn’t cleaned well when we got it and it appeared to have papers from two previous renters in it but other than that i was happy. Picking up and dropping off were quick simple processes and they allowed other drivers in the family to drive as well. I plan to use them again.

When I landed the rental counter was already closed, and their neighboring counter, Hertz, who owns them, would not help. There was a sign just to come back in the morning. I took an Uber to my hotel, then came back in the morning to pick up the car. However, the counter agent was incredibly rude and said that everyone will have to wait since no cars were available. I called the national customer service number, and after waiting on hold to talk with someone, I was told that only the local counter agent could help me, and that there was nothing the representative on the phone could do. After waiting for over an hour, she realized she could borrow a car from Hertz, which I then received. I would avoid Dollar and choose a different company in the future.

Made advance reservation weeks ahead of time and pre paid. Arrived at the airport and I was informed that dollar and hertz did not hold any cars for me even though I had made the reservation confirmed it 24 hours ahead as requested. I am now having to waste my time to try to get reimbursement for the poor service and terrible business practices. I will never rent from dollar ever again.

When I pay money to reserve a vehicle and I get to dollar to check in and was told there is no more 7 passenger vehicle available and there's three people ahead of me also waiting on a 7 passenger vehicle. I think it's poor on Dollar and the third parties Dollar works with. I was not refunded my money for the service I could not use.

When we arrived, they had our reservation but no car! The person at the counter was of no help and said that he could neither give us another car nor cancel the reservation. I was told that perhaps they would have a car in 40-50 minutes. He finally called me 2 hours later. In the meantime, I called Kayak, cancelled the reservation, and walked two counters down where Enterprise rented a car for LESS than what the original reservation would have been at Thrift. Thrifty has lost a customer for life. How do you reserve a car and then not have a car? Unbelievable!
