You don’t necessarily have to rent a car the moment you walk out of the terminal. Many people flying to destinations like Bucharest, Bacău, Iași or Suceava are also looking for a rental car, which is why airport prices are usually higher. This often comes down to high rents and extra fees charged in these locations. Some companies also apply additional charges for the same car and the same rental period. You can save part of your budget!
This depends, of course, on the city and the calendar date. You may find a much better deal if you rent a vehicle from a city that doesn’t have an airport. Before you land, check exactly where your rental car will be delivered. There are “rent a car” companies that can bring the car to the airport without extra fees, even if they don’t have an office near the terminal.
You should also pay attention to currency exchange when you arrive. To avoid poor exchange rates and commissions, it’s best if the rental company can facilitate card payment, regardless of where you want to pick up the car.
