KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Plano
- A rental car is the most comfortable, cost-effective way of exploring not only the city of Plano, but also other areas of Dallas, as well as other major attractions in Texas. With a car, you can explore freely Plano’s main points of interest, such as the Heritage Farmstead Museum, as well as embark on longer road trips outside the city. The second biggest canyon in the U.S., the Palo Duro Canyon, is about 270 miles south of Dallas and is the perfect place to visit with a car.
- The two airports near Plano are Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and Dallas Love Field (DAL). At DFW, rental car agencies are situated in the Rental Car Center, which is near the airport’s south entrance and is open 24 hours, with free transfers running every 10-15 minutes from the terminal’s lower level. At DAL, the car rental desks can be found inside the terminal’s lower level, just after the Baggage Claim area, with companies providing a shuttle to the parking lot.
- The main thing you have to know about driving in Plano is that drivers are slightly reckless. Always drive with caution and within the speed limits, even if that means being honked at. Drivers typically yield to larger vehicles, especially trucks. The summer weather is quite harsh as temperatures rise exponentially, so always book a car with air conditioning if you’re heading there during that season.
- Although traffic is manageable on some side streets in Plano, even during rush hour, the freeways surrounding Dallas tend to get pretty packed during peak hour. Avoid driving between 6:30 a.m. and 9:30 a.m., and then again in the evening between 3:30 pm and 7:30 p.m. if you don’t want to add extra time to your travels. Lots of people commute from Plano to Dallas and vice-versa through the George Bush Turnpike, so expect some traffic jams there.
- Book your rental car in Plano at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Compact rental cars in Plano are around -24% cheaper than other car types, on average

Could have had a later closing time on a Sunday. Closed at noon and it was a little crowded at closing. Only one person could rent out vehicles. The other two had yet to be allowed to do so. But overall very pleased with the experience.10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
I liked the car and the price that I paid for the rental.Cons:
When I pick up the car they told me that I could request a drop off service to take me back to my work, they even told me about the 5 miles radio policy , then the day I drop off the car I asked for it and they didn't want to take me back to my work place even after I reminded them about our previous conversation, I had to call an uber. My work it's a 4.5 miles, what I didn't like is that they just said they were busy a d dismiss me with out even try to help me.Avis

Sep 2018
Pros:
Got what we asked for - a van, preferably the Chrysler Town and Country or Dodge Caravan (it was the Dodge). Vehicle was in okay shape and service was acceptable.Cons:
The rate changed from what was quoted ($444 for 6 days) to what we were charged ($648), both before tax. I have taken up this issue with Avis customer service. VERY disappointed in that.2.0 Poor
Jul 2018
Cons:
We reserved a 7 passenger mini van as we had 7 passengers plus luggage for a family trip. When we arrived we were told no minivans were available (ummm isn’t that the point of a reservation???). We were given an arcadia with a “third row” we had to find out when we went to load up it had 6 seat belts. Called 8 different times and finally was told they would trade us out for a 7 passenger Ford Flex. When we came back to exchange, we were told the flex was gone, but we could have a 7 passenger Chevy, which had enough seat belts and room for luggage... That would have been fine, but he went to ring it up and it had a recall, so wouldn’t let us have it. They also had 3 minivans on site they “couldn’t rent”. We ended up having to squish a 3rd person illegally in the backseat without a seatbelt and terrible ride experience. If you can not honor your rental, don’t take reservations. Completely unacceptable.10.0 Wonderful

I did have to drive far to east plano even though my orginal place i was supposed to pick it up was closed and had to be changed at the last moment but everything was good just wished they would've have called me earlier on or a day before I pick up the instead the day of because I had to rush getting there4.0 Mediocre
Mar 2021
Pros:
Customer service was helpful. However it took asking for a supervisor to assist me. They did compete me for their mistake.Cons:
We reserved and prepaid for our car a month in advance. Got a call the day before we were supposed to go pickup the car (5 min before they closed for the day) to tell us that they didn’t have a car for us, but to call back tomorrow morning at 8 am. Long story short, after 3 hours of calling and begging we were able to get a car at a different location. I was told to just cancel the reservation and try again. Called the hertz corporate office and spoke to their customer service and a supervisor and they finally found us a car. In the end it worked out but it was a very stressful day We picked up the car at 5pm ( we were supposed to pick it up at 12) and left for our trip.Thrifty
