Top tips for hiring a car at Lancaster airport

  • Lancaster is a small town and because of this a car rental at Lancaster Airport is your best option for traveling around the area. Since Lancaster Airport is located 6 miles from downtown Lancaster, a rental car will allow for much needed mobility around the city and the surrounding area, especially considering that there are no public transportation options available between the airport and the town. It will also be more affordable than taking a taxi.
  • While the Lancaster Airport is open and operating on weekends, it is important to keep in mind that the rental car companies are not open on the weekends. While some companies like Avis offer key drop for returns, other companies like Enterprise do not offer after hour returns. Make sure to plan accordingly when you are looking at a car rental at Lancaster Airport so that this doesn’t affect your travel plans.
  • When it comes time to return your rental car, the process will be fairly simple because of the small size of Lancaster Airport. With most companies you will be able to skip the need for a shuttle and park at the airport parking lot. Then you can bring the keys back to the rental car desk to finalize your return. With those simple steps completed, you will be on your way to your next stop.
  • If you are looking for a car rental at Lancaster Airport, the easiest companies to rent from are the larger brands, like Avis, Enterprise, National and Budget. These brands are great because the company desks are located directly in the airport terminal. This convenient location makes pick-up and return a breeze and eliminates much of the hassle of renting a car.
  • Book your car hire at Lancaster airport at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

FAQs about hiring a car at Lancaster airport

  • Where are the rental car companies at Lancaster Airport?

    The Lancaster Airport car rental desks are located in a small room near the entrance of the airport. If you are arriving to Lancaster Airport by plane, the rental car room will be located next to the front entrance on your right as you exit the terminal. If you are arriving from the parking lot, it will be a brief walk to the entrance and the room will be on your left. In the room you will find two counters, one with Avis and Budget, and another with National and Enterprise. For most companies, the rental cars are located within walking distance of the terminal and no shuttle is required to reach your vehicle.

  • What kind of amenities are available at the Lancaster Airport rental car center?

    There are very few amenities located inside the rental car center at Lancaster Airport, but because of the small size of the airport, you will be within a short walk of whatever you may need. There is an Italian restaurant located on-site at the airport, and of course there are several bathrooms nearby. Make sure you have your reservation information downloaded on your phone or printed ahead of time, as there is no free Wi-Fi offered at the airport. You may also need to find a place to rest nearby, as there is no seating offered in the rental car center.

  • What type of documentation is required to rent a car at Lancaster Airport?

    To be able to rent a car from Lancaster Airport, you will need to be at least 21 years of age and have your driver’s license and major credit or debit card on hand. Renters between the ages of 21-24 will incur additional charges. Should you choose to opt out of the rental agency’s insurance plan, you will most likely also need to provide proof of coverage to rent the vehicle.

  • Which car hire companies will pick you up at Lancaster airport?

    Car hire companies that offer shuttle or pick-up services from Lancaster airport to off-airport locations include Avis, Budget, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, and National.

SNEAKY SMALL PRINT The car I reserved was half-price, and I thought I'd found a WONDERFUL deal. Later, I was speaking to a friend who works for AVIS. When I told him my plans for a once-in-a-lifetime cross-country trip, he warned me that AVIS would fine me at least $1000 if I drove into half the states on my itinerary. I had to dig through MANY pages of small print on AVIS's Website before I found out my friend was right. I immediately cancelled the car and went with Hertz. Yes, I paid full-price, but I got an upgrade on the vehicle and unrestricted travel. You need to make such restrictions plain and up-front. I'm glad I know to avoid AVIS in the future,

Very convenient location with ample parking for personal vehicles. Easy check in and return. The rental car was clean and in pristine shape. The gentleman at the counter was very courteous. Will definitely rent from Avis again.

Enterprise Car Rentals was closed on Saturday. The hours were plainly noted on the door. We wasted half a day each driving to PHL to get the closest available car. Very dissatisfied.

Put in for the rental under the impression it was going to be as listed, only to be hit with a $300.00 add-on fee (they also did not have the car I rented or something similar). They assured me someone called me to update me about the extra security deposit, but going through my phone records says otherwise. I was never notified or even told before they even attempted to swipe my card had I not looked at the device they were using. Left with no car, was not looking to pay upwards of $400.00 plus dollars for a Ford, when I initially listed a BMW, sorry.

I arrived late... Went to the wrong enterprise place (my fault), and they just tell me they have no cars. No call, no nothing. Claimed they didn't have my phone number. Why would I ever use them again?

The purpose of writing to you is to express my dissatisfactions over the quality of service I received. First, the miscommunication over car insurance still has me baffled. I was told that if I did not supply the information showing that I had car insurance then I could only rent the smallest vehicle. I was not told that I could pay for insurance if necessary. After talking with a friend they told me that I could pay for coverage. I ended up calling back the next day because they were closed by the time I figured this out. I stated numerous times that I wanted the MINIMUM amount of car insurance coverage needed. I received an emailed receipt and it showed that I paid DW/CDW which states *OPTIONAL* $22.99/Day, for a total of $183.92. That's on top of the Supplemental Liability protection at $13/day for a total of $104. Together equaling $287.92. This is completely outrageous. I am insured through Geico. I wish I could say this was my only issue. I asked if a worker could follow me back to my home with the vehicle, which is only a five minute drive and that I would even drive them back to the store. I was told no one would be available that day. I had to resort to getting an Uber. I have rented cars many times and never ever had an issue. Every other place I have rented a car from for example Hertz and Budget, the vehicle has a full tank of gas and is in great condition. The Volkswagen I rented had less than a half a tank of gas when I picked it up and was not in the best of condition, with lots of dents and scratches. Whoever cleaned the inside of the vehicle left streak marks on the windshield. Which made it very difficult to see when the sun was setting. The registration was due and the Inspection light was going off on the dashboard. I called and was told that everything on the vehicle was up to date. If I was only driving locally this wouldn't have been much of a concern to me but I was traveling out of state on a seven hour drive. When I called to voice that I was not comfortable driving the seven hours back to Pennsylvania, I wad told that I could call or go to an Enterprise that was close to me to see if they had anything available. This is not my job or problem to search for a suitable vehicle. This should have been taken care of for me. No one was open, being that it was the 4th of July, the day I was planning on driving back. Now I end up paying for a nother day. I call an Enterprise the next day. They did not have a compact SUV available. I did not have the time or patience to call around for a nother vehicle as I am dealing will my ill Mother. I decided to take my chances with the Volkswagen because I needed to get back to work. I can not express how extremely dissatisfied I am with my experience with Enterprise.
