Portland and the Orlando region boast several attractions and a thriving cultural scene. The best way to make the most of your stay is by acquiring car rentals at Portland International Airport (PDX). A rental gives you the freedom to explore stunning attractions in remote places and appreciate hidden gems that cannot be reached by public transport like the bus. Moreover, no one dictates your pace when you have a rental, as is the case when dealing with fixed bus and train times. Lastly, you move around comfortably with a rental as you can select a rental that meets all your travel needs.
You can rent a car at Portland Airport using KAYAK. The process is easy, fast, and convenient since it can be done online from your home. The website is user-friendly, so you can quickly find the rental you’re looking for using the filter option. This option lets you set the budget and car category you require. Moreover, booking your car rental at Portland Airport through KAYAK helps you save money.
Make sure you return your rental at the location stated on the rental contract and before the agreed time following the expiry of your rental period. Failure to do so attracts late return fees. You can communicate with your provider about a convenient time to make the drop off if you find that you won't be able to return the vehicle on time. Some agencies allow 24-hour returns at a small extra fee, allowing you to drop off the rental outside their operating hours.
Expect some difficulty when picking up and dropping off your rental at Portland Airport. Some days of the week, the high influx of travelers makes it difficult to transit to the airport quickly. These include Thursdays, Sundays, and Mondays. Avoid booking flights into and out of the airport during these days as you would take longer to transit through the airport. Moreover, the best time to land at the airport is past 11 am when the airport is less busy. Avoid flying into PDX during summer, as it experiences the highest influx during this season.
Book your rental car at Portland Airport at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Which car rental companies are most convenient at Portland Airport?
Dollar and Enterprise are some of the most convenient options for a car rental at Portland Airport. The two have extended operating hours, unlike other car hire agencies. This allows renters to pick up and drop off the rental at a convenient time based on their schedule. Moreover, Enterprise has an after-hours return service at this location, meaning you can drop off your rental at any time. You don’t have to worry about fixing your schedule based on the agency’s operating hours.
Where are the rental counters situated at Portland Airport?
Portland Airport has over 10 car rental providers at the onsite consolidated car rental facility. These include major companies like Budget, Payless, Dollar, Enterprise, and Hertz, which have a rental counter at the consolidated car rental facility. The facility is located opposite the main terminal building. Exit the baggage claim area, and you will see the facility across the street. The counters are on different levels of the parking garage. The pick up lot is onsite just outside the facility.
What type of documentation is required to rent a car at Portland Airport?
You must have attained the minimum age of 21 to qualify for a Portland Airport car rental. All renters below 25 will pay an extra daily underage fee.

After landing, I went to the Alamo line and waited for an hour and a half in line until it was my turn. It was not reasonable. They had one worker behind the counter and he would go behind the door for about 10 minutes and then return. This happened continuously. I will never book with Alamo again in Portland

A rolling empty beer can in the back, film of tobacco smoke making the rear window impossible to see through, same for the front windshield. Apparently the manager wanted to issue some refund on my credit card upon the return, but that never happened. Plenty of apologies though...

Anonymous, Oct 2020

Pros:

I got the last car available and the interior had a strong smell of gas for the entire duration of the trip. I had to drive with the windows rolled down and no one from Enterprise answered the phone while trying to connect with them and ask if I could exchange the car during the trip from Portland to Bar Harbor.

Cons:

A real person answering the phone and/or calling me back.

suzanne, Oct 2020

Pros:

The staff I saw were nice. THere was no one there when I left with the car, and there was a problem. There was something wrong with the driver's side door, and there was no one to talk with about it. I just left because it was late and I was tired.

Cons:

For $100 per day, give me a car that is perfect. That was way too expensive for a car with a door that sounded like it would break off every time I opened it.

Did not pick car up. Tried to cancel and was told it was non refundable. Kayak said it was but priceline said no???? Deceptive when one that you reserve car on says it is but then it switches to another company that changes the rules.
