Top tips for hiring a car at Pittsburgh Airport

  • The folks at the Pittsburgh Airport (PIT) make car rental at Pittsburgh Airport easy. Seven large national rental car companies have an operation at the airport, and you will find the customer service counters adjacent to the baggage claim area on the first level of the terminal. All their cars are on the first level of the parking garage that is adjacent to the terminal building.
  • When you are ready to turn in your car rental at Pittsburgh Airport, simply follow the signage you will see as you approach the airport property on Highway 376. Once you are in the parking garage and have parked your car in the appropriate stall for your rental car company, lock your car and gather up all your belongings, then drop your keys and your completed contract in the provided dropbox. If you need to speak to a staff member about your rental, most of the rental car companies have staff on-site seven days per week from early in the morning until very late in the evening.
  • There are several transportation options to get you from the airport to the center of Pittsburgh, including bus and taxi services. The trip is a rather long one and this can be a problem on the bus, especially if you have a large group or you are caring a lot of luggage. A taxi is a convenient option, but it can be expensive, especially if you need to make several trips during your stay in Pittsburgh. That is why a car rental at Pittsburgh Airport is such a great choice because it is cost-effective and convenient.
  • Like any airport in a major city, you a going to find that trying to rent a car can be more difficult during both morning and evening rush-hour periods, as well as during the holidays when there are a lot of people traveling. A good way to mitigate any of these waits is to make sure you reserve a Pittsburgh Airport car rental with one of the companies at this airport so you know they will have a car waiting for you when you arrive on your flight.
  • Book your car hire at Pittsburgh Airport at least 3 weeks before your trip in order to get a below-average price

FAQs about renting a car at Pittsburgh Airport

  • What type of documentation will I need to rent a car at this airport?

    If you are traveling from any state in the United States, you can present your valid driver's license issued in your state of origin to rent your car. The license in question must have your photograph upon it and must contain the name of the person renting a car. If you happen to be traveling here from another country, you can use a valid driver's license from your country of origin and you will also need a second form of identification, such as a passport.

  • What is a good type of car to rent for my trip to Pittsburgh?

    One of the best features of traveling to a large airport like this is that you can find a large fleet of vehicles to choose from when picking your rental car. If you are traveling to Pittsburgh on business and want to save a little money, a great choice is an economy car that will get you from place to place at a great price. If you are bringing a large business group or the whole family, a minivan or an SUV is a recommended choice.

  • What type of amenities will travelers find when renting a car at this airport?

    Because all the rental car companies have an operation right on site in the terminal building, you can access all the amenities at this airport while you are renting your car. At the Pittsburgh Airport, this includes things like plenty of restrooms, food and beverage options, quite a few shopping options, as well as baggage carts, airport ambassadors, ATMs, a post office, and an information desk for questions about the airport and the surrounding area.

I was renting this car to drive to my cousin’s out of town funeral while my car was being repaired. I had a very tight turnaround screenshot and reviewed all of the terms & conditions in advance to avoid any major issues, particularly because I do not have a credit card. There was no language indicating a credit card is required for transactions at some Alamo locations. When I got to Alamo learned that this Pittsburgh airport location requires that you use a credit card, purportedly due to the $300 hold that is placed on the card. I had to take an Uber home and wasn’t able to get a rental from Enterprise (there are no other Alamo locations within an hour of Pittsburgh) until they opened at 9:30 am the following morning. I was late to my cousin’s funeral and was not able to give a eulogy and left my aunt scrambling to find someone else to speak. I caused her so much stress while she is mourning her son which is unforgivable. I checked on Alamo’s website and saw that there was language regarding possible credit card requirements when booking. If I had tried to book directly with Alamo, I would have seen that and found a different car rental provider. I thought I could use Kayak to save money, but there are some things that are more important than money. I will be actively discouraging anyone from using Kayak whenever I can.

Tom at pickup sounded like a corporate robot rather than a sentient being while dealing with my pickup at which there were no cars that I reserved available. Thankfully the woman in the hut in the garage was more human and was able to do an easy switch (after I saw that there was in fact a car I could have in the garage). Either way I will be using Enterprise in the future—I never should have tried another company.

The workers were rude, the car was so dirty that we had to pull over and clean the front window just outside of the airport so that we could see to drive, it stunk like smoke and dirty dog, it had horrible shocks and every time we hit a bump it would throw us so badly that we almost wrecked. For $490, this car was a joke. Overall, this was by far the worst renting experience we’ve ever had, and we’ve been traveling regularly for 15 years.

As soon as I booked my car Rental a person from Hertz was calling me saying that they may not have a vehicle for me because if someone else needed a vehicle and was willing to pay the higher price I would be bumped and I had to pay 139.00 more. I wasn’t sure if I was being scammed so I hung up and called Hertz myself and explained the situation she ask for the number and checked into it and informed me that the number was legitimate and that a car could not be guaranteed even though I had already prepaid. I told her that I was not paying anything additional and would arrive at the time selected to pick up my rental. I arrived on the day and time and the counter girl was nice she wasn’t to knowledge on my questions and had to ask for help from coworkers multiple times which was fine I did end up having to pay the extra money for fees and Taxes which I feel should have been included in the original price offered I did not like the car at all it was so compact and I would not recommend if traveling on Turnpikes or Highways or in any type of windy or Rainy weather. Nissan Kicks 2024 was the vehicle

Pick-up truck

I reserved a truck and called reservations to let them know I needed only a truck. If one was not available I would have to cancel my reservation. When I arrived at the Budget counter in Pittsburgh I was informed no trucks were available. After pressing them to double and triple check, I received a truck about 45 minutes later. It was filthy and once I left the airport and got on the highway I noticed the car pulled strongly to the right, so much so that I couldn’t take my eyes off of the road for even a second. I did not return, however, because I was told that was the only truck. Two days later I started the car and I received a “maintenance required” warning on the dash. I was unable to put three car in gear also. I called customer service, They said they would send a tow truck, I could ride back to the airport in the cab and pick up a new truck. However, I was located 90 minutes from the airport and it was 10pm. Finally they agreed to deliver a new truck. That arrived around midnight and quite honestly I just took the keys and went to bed. Upon opening the car the following morning, I could not even sit in the truck as it smelled horribly of cigarettes. I went to the store to buy air fresheners and used three entire cans. I tried to get in the car a few hours later and it was no better, so I called the reservation line again. They agree to send yet a third truck to me. They also agreed that my bill would be half of what my reservation was originally to cost. Finally, the new truck came a few hours later and although more mechanically sound, it was dirty also (stains on center console, mud on inside doors, etc). Once I returned the truck at the end of my trip the charges did it reflect any discount for my time, disappointment, cleaning supplies and as was promised. The Pittsburgh Airport budget needs to do a better job than this and I will not rent from them again.

Bad. Budget did not have the standard SUV that I booked. They forced me to choose between a pickup truck and a van. Both are unappealing and I did not book those. When asked why I was being forced to choose between the two, the Budget representative said they did not have any SUVs available. This was not accurate because when I went to the garage to pick up my vehicle, I saw some SUVs.

They canceled our six-week two 15 passenger van rental, offered us no options, cost us thousands of dollars and a lot of inconvenience showing no remorse- after 10's of phone calls over three weeks time, at the last moment, they offered us incomparable vehicles (four 7 passenger vans- it was ridiculous, as if we had two extra drivers and could have our extra passengers commute some other way?). Due to high demand and very short notice, Budget helped us some and we had to BUY a van.

Reserved a mustang convertible (or similar). When it came time to pick up the car, my choices were SUV or pickup truck. My opinion, false advertising. Either don't offer what you can't deliver. Or, hold that specific vehicle in reserve, for such reservations. Quite disappointed.

The Enterprise staff at Pittsburgh Airport was rude and took almost 45 minutes to get a car. They blamed broken tablets; but other customers were able to get their car quicker. Most of the workers stood huddled near the car exit, and not helping customers. The car given to me was dirty, and obviously had not been cleaned. They also did not give me the car I prepaid for, although it was on the lot. Instead they tried to give me a downgrade without acknowledging the lower rate.
