Top tips for hiring a car at Charlottetown airport

  • Charlottetown is a coastal city and the largest city on Prince Edward Island. It has numerous beaches to explore and other stunning attractions. The best way to explore these is through a car rental at Charlottetown Airport (YYG). A rental has several perks, but the biggest one is the freedom to create your schedule for moving around. You lack this with public transportation like buses which have fixed bus times.
  • The rental car center at Charlottetown Airport hosts several international car hire agencies like Budget, Hertz, National, and Enterprise. These agencies have counters in the baggage claim area with a pick up lot outside the terminal. No shuttle is required to access the pick up lot as it is a short walk away from the rental counters.

Park your rental and confirm that it's clean and you’ve removed all personal items before you lock the car. Head to the rental counter to hand in the keys and rental contract or drop them in the dropbox outside the counter for after-hours return. We advise you to make drop offs in due time and at the location stated in the rental agreement to avoid extra charges. Most car hire agencies have a late-return fee for drop offs made past the expiry of the renting period.

Everything was great except for customer service beforehand. Two voicemails to change arrival time were completely ignored. AVIS 1-800 disconnected my calls and could not change my arrival time. Luckily, when we arrived a car was available, an upgrade, and service at the desk was excellent.

Pick up was very easy. We ordered the “mystery car” to save money since any type of of vehicle would work for us. When we got to the desk they had enough cars to give us a choice and we took a hybrid which got great gas mileage and only had to fill up once after a week of driving all over the island.

Didn't give me RAV4 as it says when book, Kia Sportage is fine but doesn't consist some actived safety features, I should pay more attention on high ways.

Thé service regarding pickup was bad. They said they would close at 6 on my agreement. When they called me they said they were closing at 4 pm. A huge difference for s traveler. I was bounced from kayak to beers to change the pickup time. Hertz didn’t think it was their problem. So I went back and forth. Finding the number to corset hertz was difficult and took a half hour. When I got through they said I should context the pick up location. That’s when I was told that they would be closing at 4. which high was false. I had to pick up my car two hours earlier than I planned because of that misinformation. I felt it was handled very badly and was a stressful experience. It had an impact on the time I decided to head to the airport which hindered my plans with my friends. All in all I wouldn’t do it again

We were on Emerald Princess cruise ship and had booked in advance online a car for a day visit to an East Coast Canadian port. We were given a call from the local Enterprise office to advise that there had been problems with the online booking system and that the were no cars available from any of the local rental companies. The phone message was very polite however since no phone calls are available when at sea, we did not learn that we had no car until we docked. We have rented many cars from Enterprise but your online rental system must be improved to avoid future disappointment.
