Hertz Car Rental at Winnipeg Airport

Winnipeg International Airport is found just a few kilometres from the city of Winnipeg, in the province of Manitoba, Canada. It is quite a busy airport, handling approximately 3.3 million passengers per annum, and is therefore rated as the eighth busiest in the country for passenger traffic. It is also the ninth busiest for aircraft movements. The airport is recognised by its IATA code of YWG, and its full name is the Winnipeg James Armstrong Richardson International Airport. Hertz is one of the car hire companies found at the airport, and is an excellent choice of car rental company for persons travelling for business or leisure purposes. Competitive rental rates are offered to airport passengers, and a large selection of hire cars are available.

Hertz Winnipeg International Airport is found in the main terminal building of the airport, and their vehicles for hire are parked nearby, within easy walking distance of the airport facilities. The main terminal is where passengers will arrive if they are flying on any of the airline companies that serve the airport, besides Perimeter Airlines and Kivallig Air. These two airline carriers have their own terminals a short distance from the main building that accommodate their more specific needs. The airport is a hub for both these companies, as well as a hub for Calm Air and a focus city for Air Canada Express and WestJet.

At this car rental location, Hertz is open from 07:00 to midnight, seven days a week. After hour returns are permitted, as a drop slot is built into the counters. Passengers arriving when the offices are closed will need to find out more information regarding an out-of-hours return. Special services at the airport include Gold Counter Service, which may be used by members of the Hertz #1 Club Gold. This club is exclusive for more frequent customers of the company, and offers special benefits to help busy travellers save time and money. A frequent renter as defined by Hertz is someone who has rented a vehicle three or more times within a twelve month period. Occasional renters, however, can be members of the Hertz #1 Club, and enjoy a wide range of benefits as well. If Hertz is your favourite car rental company, find out more information about their loyalty clubs.

In addition to the usual equipment that may be hired along with a vehicle, such as child seats and satellite navigation systems. Hertz hand controls are available for drivers with a lower limb disability. The device is designed to control the brake and accelerator pedals of certain automatic vehicles, and may be requested at no extra charge from the rental location. Hand controls should, however, be reserved in advance, as their availability may vary, and cannot be guaranteed. It is also recommended to hire any other additional items of equipment required in advance, and to make an early online car reservation to ensure that your ideal car is available.

The Winnipeg International car hire companies all offer a wonderful selection of high quality vehicles. Hertz has four categories available, namely, Standard Cars, 4WD/SUV/Minivan, Convertible and Commercial Van/Truck. The Standard Car category contains vehicles similar to the Kia Rio, Hyundai Accent, Nissan Sentra, Dodge Avenger and Chevrolet Impala, which are all cars with reasonable rental rates. They seat between four and five passengers, and have some room for luggage as well. More elegant cars can be found in this category as well, such as the Buick Lucerne, Lincoln Towncar and Volvo S80. Convertibles from Hertz include the Ford Mustang and Volvo V70, with central locking, dual airbag, satellite navigation a sunroof and V6 engine.

Should a larger vehicle be required, the second category mentioned may be more suitable. It contains a wide selection of SUVs and Minivans, as well as 4WD vehicles. Larger vehicles ideal for seven or eight passengers in this category include the Chrysler Grand Caravan, Ford Flex, GM Tahoe, GM Suburban and Lincoln Navigator. These cars are all considered as ideal for travelling to all areas of Manitoba. Vehicles can also be arranged as a Hertz one way hire. This service, referred to as the Hertz Rent-It-Here and Leave-It-There option, allows the customer to deliver their hire car to a different car rental location, which then eliminates the need to drive back to the airport. One way hire services can be used by any customer, provided a suitable return location is selected for the vehicle. Sometimes cars may not be driven across the border into the United States of America, or even to other provinces in Canada.

Car rental companies require their primary renters to be at least 21 years of age or older, and will need to see a valid driving license before handing over the car keys. A major credit card will also be required by the primary renter, such as American Express, Mastercard, Visa, Discover or Diner’s Club Int’l. Keep in mind that younger renters, aged between 21 and 24, may not be permitted to hire larger or luxury vehicles, and will pay higher car rental rates. This higher rate is due to young driver insurance that is automatically added to the rental contract. Contact Hertz at Winnipeg Airport for all further details required.
