Hertz Car Rental at Tampa Airport

Tampa International Airport is the thirtieth busiest airport in North America for passenger traffic, as approximately 16 million people pass through its terminal buildings each year. It is recognised by its IATA code of TPA, and is located about 6 miles west of central Tampa, in Hillsborough County, Florida. It is a modern facility, with all amenities required by arriving and departing passengers. It also provides a Car Rental Facility where companies such as Hertz Tampa International Airport are located. All the car hire companies of the airport provide vehicles of a high quality, and rental rates that are considered as affordable.

The car rental facility of this airport is actually regarded as one of the top five of all US airports. It is found nearby the baggage reclaim area of the main landside/airside terminal of the airport, and most of the car hire companies are open twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. This terminal of the airport was the first of its kind to be designed in the world, and has four satellite buildings that house the airline gates. Passengers will reach the central terminal by the automated people mover system available that operates non-stop throughout the day and night. The satellites are referred to as A, C, E and F, with F mainly used by US Airways and E designed for use by Delta Air Lines.

Hertz is one of the major car rental companies found at Tampa International Airport, and is also one of the largest of car hire brands in the world. They have been providing quality services for over ninety years, and are present at most airports around the world. Hertz is also famous for offering a number of vehicles that can be booked by their specific makes and models, rather than just by category. Green Traveler Collection vehicles include the Smart Electric Vehicle and the Hybrid Sedan, while Prestige Collection vehicles include the Infiniti QX56, Cadillac ATS, Mercedes GLK350, Mercedes E Class, Cadillac Escalade AWD, Lincoln Navigator and Volvo C70 Convertible. These cars are ideal for customers who require an elegant vehicle. Furthermore, specific vehicles can be hired from the Adrenaline Collection, for example the Dodge Challenger R/T, Chevy Camaro SS and Corvette Convertible.

Passengers who require a more ordinary vehicle from the Tampa International Airport car hire companies will find that Hertz had plenty to offer as well. Hertz Standard Cars are similar to the Kia Rio, Chevy Cruze, Chevy Aveo, Toyota Corolla, Nissan Altima, Chevrolet Malibu and Toyota Camry, and they are all cars with reasonable rental rates. They also have some nice features, such as central locking, air conditioning, dual airbags, CD players and power steering. Passengers can select a car according to their size requirements, as some are smaller with less room for luggage, while other are larger. It is recommended to hire a car that is adequate in size, rather than one that is cheaper but too small.

A number of larger sized vehicles are available from Hertz as well, and are specifically ideal for groups of travellers or for larger families. The Dodge Grand Caravan is a popular option for seven people, but SUVs are often chosen as well, such as the Toyota RAV4, Chevrolet Equinox, Chevy Traverse 4WD and Chevrolet Suburban. Hertz’s largest vehicle is the Ford Super Clubwagon for twelve.

Many vehicles can be arranged as Hertz one way hires, a service also referred to as the Hertz Rent-It-Here and Leave-It-There option, and customers may select various items of equipment for their journey. Child seats and the Hertz NeverLost In-Car Navigation System are available from Tampa International Airport. One way hires may require an advanced reservation, and the customer should always confirm the return location desired with Hertz, as rented cars are not always permitted into every state of the country, and most often may not be driven across borders.

For disabled drivers (persons with a lower limb disability), Hertz hand controls are available from Tampa International Airport. Hand controls may only be requested by persons with mobility challenges, and are used on certain types of vehicles with an automatic transmission. The device operates the brake and accelerator pedals, but not the car’s lights, windshield wipers or blinkers. Other functions such as cruise control will be operated by hand as well. Tampa International Airport is fully equipped for the needs of persons with disabilities, and all forms of transport on the airport grounds are accessible, for example, the people mover trains.

Many of the Tampa International Airport car rental companies, including Hertz, offer loyalty programs for frequent customers. The Hertz #1 Club is ideal for all who are fond of this car hire company, and offers many time and money saving benefits. The membership is free of charge, with no contracts or obligations. Persons who have hired a car three or more times in a twelve month period will also be invited to join the Hertz #1 Club Gold, and enjoy even more exclusive benefits and discounts on their rental fees. The airport of Tampa is one of Hertz’s rental locations that offer Gold Counter Service for quicker rentals, reservations and vehicle returns.
