Information about renting a vehicle from Budget at Calgary International Airport

Calgary Airport handles domestic and international flights by a large variety of airline companies, and is one of the main hubs for Air Canada and Air Canada Express. It is also the headquarters of the airline company WestJet. The airport of Calgary has been allocated the official IATA code of YYC, in order to distinguish it from similar establishments, and is known as one of the largest and most important airports in Canada, as it handles over 12 million passengers per annum. Car hire options are available from various car hire companies, such as Budget Calgary Airport. Budget is well known for their ‘budget’ prices, and car rentals of high value.

At this Budget rental location, the counters for the collection of vehicles are open from 06:00 to 01:00, seven days a week. Their hours of operation may vary on bank holidays, such as Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Years Eve and New Years Day. Budget is open at Calgary Airport on these days, but their hours are slightly reduced. Calgary Airport is a busy car rental location, therefore passengers are recommended to make advanced reservations for their vehicle from Budget. Online is often considered most convenient, and is often the best way to secure the lowest rental rates. Similar to an airline ticket, the earlier the reservation the more options there are available, and the more money that is saved.

The Calgary Airport Car Rental Centre is found nearby the main terminal building, across the roadway and on the departure level. It is also accessed from the elevator lobby across the arrivals roadway. Passengers could arrive at one of four concourses at Calgary Airport, but should easily find their way to the car rental companies no matter their point of arrival. Assistance with directions and general airport enquiries is offered by the special White Hat volunteers, who circulate the building. They also drive Club Cars for the transport of passengers from certain aircraft to the Canada Customs area. Information can also be found at various Visitor Welcome Centres in the terminal building. Although the airport is large, its facilities are generally well signposted.

Calgary Airport is one of Budget’s Fastbreak locations. Fastbreak is Budget’s frequent-renter program, and is available to customers who have hired a car from any of Budget’s rental locations around the world at least three times. The customer is then considered as a frequent renter, and is eligible for various services that could help save time and money when reserving, collecting or returning a hired vehicle. The Fastbreak membership is free of charge, and is recommended to anyone who is fond of Budget’s car rental services. The Budget Fastbreak services are not available at all their locations, but are available at almost all of the major airports with Budget rental counters. At these airports Fastbreak members will have access to dedicated rental counters, and will be able to reserve or collect their vehicle more conveniently, without the need to queue at the regular counters. Fastbreak members may also have their vehicles parked in the most convenient spaces.

The Calgary Airport car hire companies have a wide range of vehicle categories for their customers, and Budget is no exception. Budget’s fleet of smaller cars can be hired from the Economy and Compact categories, and include the Toyota Yaris Sedan and the Chevy Cobalt. Standard, Fullsize and Intermediate cars are similar to the Ford Fusion, Chevrolet Impala and Pontiac G6, while SUVs include the Chevrolet Equinox 4WD, Ford Explorer and Chevrolet Suburban, for up to seven passengers. A greater number of passengers can also travel in a Mini Passenger Van from Budget, such as the Dodge Grand Caravan, or in a Full-sized Passenger Van, such as the Chevrolet Express for fifteen passengers. This is also the most expensive car hired from Budget, as it is the largest. Vehicles hired are generally returned to Calgary Airport, however, Budget one way hires may be permitted, allowing the vehicle to be returned to an alternative rental location. From Calgary Airport, one way hire services may be more expensive than an ordinary rental.

For every vehicle hired from Budget, customers may add certain items of equipment, and a variety of insurance options are available. Ski racks can be added by those who are hitting the slopes, and Budget child seats are essential when little ones will be in the vehicle. Your online reservation form will ask you to specify whether the child is a baby or toddler, or whether a booster seat is required. This will enable Budget to provide a child seat of the correct size. Insurances from Budget include Loss Damage Waiver (LDW), Personal Accident Insurance (PAI), Personal Effects Insurance (PEI and Roadside SafetyNet, for assistance in case of an unexpected accident. The costs of all insurances will be added to your rental quote, and will not initially be included.

At no additional cost, Budget hand controls can be requested by a disabled driver. Although most vehicles hired in Canada have an automatic transmission, which is the type that is used for hand control equipment, Budget cannot provide hand controls on every make and model of vehicle. From Budget, Calgary Airport, hand control equipment should be reserved at least 24 hours before your arrival to collect the vehicle. A driver unable to operate a vehicle due to disability may still be the renter of a vehicle from Budget, but should bring along an accompanying driver that meets the location’s minimum rental requirements.
