We arrived 2 hours early as they had changed our flight. The clerk was a bit rude as we were early. Gave us an upgrade to an Audi as no other SUV’s available. The Audi was too small for 4 adults and 4 large suitcases. Got good gas mileage.

Double charged me , over $900 on my card for a different reservation when I prepaid for my reservation. Having to waste hours of my time trying to get this money back now. Picking up was a disaster and tons of people waiting hours past reservation time, most ended up cancelling and going with other company at airport.
