As an FYI, car rental in Europe is a million times worse than my experiences in the US. I would be very motivated to try another way to do it. It is totally normal to have a 1-2 hour wait in the UK or France at most airports, for example.
- hef19898 7y agoDepends largely on how often you rent with a certain company. If you do it often enough to be a "preferred customer" priority counters open up. Also depends on the company. I never had anything longer than maybe half an hour, granted that was in Luxemburg, Germany, Netherlands, Ireland so... Trick is to stick with one company, avoids the registration as a new customer.
- mdibiase 7y agoThis is unfortunately the case during peak season (i.e. Italy or Spain in August). On the other hand, during off-season periods, the queue is often in the realm of 15 mins. The thing I've always found though is that off-season in EU is _way_ cheaper than US. Went to Italy last month, 1 week for a medium sized car was something like 100 euros. And it's not unusual to rent a car for ~6 euros per day.
