Top tips for hiring a car from Sixt at San Diego Airport

  • When you book Sixt car rentals at San Diego Airport, you may enjoy driving by yourself to many different locations, including the city's main attraction sites, such as La Jolla Shore Park. You can set your own departure times with San Diego Airport car rentals, giving you more flexibility than the alternative transportation options, which are shuttles and taxis. Additionally, you won't have to deal with the inconveniently long lines typical of the shuttles station at Terminal A of the airport.
  • Two things are crucial to keep in mind when you are planning to book Sixt car rentals at San Diego Airport. Due to its stellar reputation, the airport's Sixt car rental facility draws many customers. Before leaving for the airport, reserve your car online, ideally through KAYAK, to make sure you get the car of your choice. Additionally, keep in mind that the Sixt car rental desk at the San Diego Airport is open from 6 am to 1 am. As a result, you can only pick up your Sixt car during these times.
  • The Sixt's one-way car rental option makes it easier to return your pick at the San Diego Airport. By selecting this option, you can pick up your car at the airport and drop it off elsewhere without paying an additional fee. However, Sixt advises that drivers who wish to return their vehicles to a location other than San Diego Airport communicate in advance, outlining the location to which they intend to deliver the vehicle and reasons compelling them to return the car at the site instead of San Diego Airport.
  • It isn’t easy to book Sixt car rentals at the San Diego Airport on Monday, Thursday, and Friday. These days, the airport sees many people arriving or departing, especially between 5:30 and 7 in the morning. On these days and statutory holidays like Labor Day and Independence Day, there are a disproportionately large number of customers at Sixt's counter. You can take longer than usual to receive the keys to your Sixt car.
  • Book your hire car at San Diego Airport from Sixt at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Standard hire cars from Sixt at San Diego Airport are around 42% cheaper than other car types, on average

The car was clean and the size I needed. The staff was friendly.Reviewed 22 Mar 2025

The people who work for Sixt could have been friendlier. They were short and aggravated with no smiles, no "your welcome", nothing of the sort. Other than that, the experience of renting the car was great and smooth.Reviewed 1 Dec 2024

The drop off was complicated moving the charges to another credit card despite our telling them our intentions before we took the car and as we dropped it off. It required a manager and quite a bit of time. Fortunately, we didn’t miss our flight but it was close despite the extra time we allocated and TSA-Pre.Reviewed 2 Oct 2024

I chose sixth because on KAYAK it says that their rental car agency is in the terminal as opposed to the shuttle. Every rental car agency in the San Diego airport is in the rental car center which is a long way away from the airport and requires waiting in a huge line to get to it. The counter was understaffed – I canceled on the spot and booked Avis which is what I should’ve done from the beginningReviewed 12 Sept 2022
