I reserved Avis on the web

are there any car rental services in the punta cana airport?
But when I got to the airport there was no office but the Avis rep was there with my car exactly as I had reserved. We did all paperwork in the car in the parking lot no problem. I returned the car to the office in Fruisa and they drove me to the airport again no problems. I highly recommend them for service and price.

I'm really lost because my friend told me that in punta cana airport they had car rentals by the terminal......any help please?......i heard they had alam
o car service....
 
I usually rent them via the Internet and they either bring it to my hotel or pick me up at the airport. I'd never seen rental places right at the airport that I can remember....hmmm maybe someone can update us on that. You shouldn't have any problems renting via the net with a reputable agency.

can i get the information of a reputable agency thats for a good price
 
just look on the internet on any search engine, There are lots of rental companies at the airport as you exit terminal. If you are intending to return to Puerto plata i would reccomend using a big company that has offices in ecach airport. I preffer Budget,Avis and National in that order.

most or all car rental companies deliver Your Car to the Airport and also at Your Hotel on request.
I am back from the airport right now, I did not notice anything new at the arrival area, I did not see a Car Rental Booth.
Maybe inside where the new Exchange Booth is located?
I don't know.
to get a Car delivered to your Hotel you will find the rental agency's contact info/phone at all Hotels, if you can not find their Desk/promotion just ask Guest services, they have the contact numbers.
I did not rent since years, but it was alwasy cheaper to book online than to book at the destin directly, even during my travels from Europe to the US.
today also there was at my side a Guy standing holding a sign "Avis", awaiting clients to hand them over their Car.

Yes I believe there r car rental companies right outside the terminals, I've rented my share of cars in Punta Cana but never at the airport, u can get better rates if u do it right off the internet. I find that u get better deals 95% of the time I used EuorpCar spelled like that. I've used AVIS before but the former beats every other price.

o/k/.
had to be at the Airport again this late afternoon and this time I remembered to check it out and ask for it.
Avis and Budget and National Rent-a-Car share a "Table" with 3 Seats, one for Each's Representative, located right when you passed Customs, on the right hand side, a 5 meters before you hit the Area where all the Tourrepresentatives and Taxis and Transfer Companies have their Booths.
but they are not there to sell and they are not there always, they only have a Representative there when they await a Customer who prior did reserve a car, so there at that Table they now let you sign the Papers and hand you over your Car.
but no "Office".
the one who been there today been the Rep from Avis, so I asked him what happens if a customer arrives without a Booking and want's a Car.
he told me that they always have a sign there at the desk with their phone number in case no representative is present, and within 20 minutes a representative would be available at the airport and the customer could get a car.

cheers

I guess it is spelled ""EuropCar"", lol.
so when you rented numerous times a Car, where did you get the Car after arrivalin PC if not at the Airport?

to get the Car at the airport has the advantage that you can drive yourself to the hotel or Condo, so no Transfer/Cabby etc needed to pay.

You're better off renting via the net to get decent rates as other have mentioned. After you book you car, look up the local agency phone number (It is usually on the confirmation or you can get it from the co website), call the local number and make sure you give the your flight information, write down the name of the person you talk with, and make sure they repeat to you the information you gave them.

for ""Chofeured"" transportation, also simply named a Private Airport Transfer, done by many good and reliable companies in Punta Cana, I always recommend Bronly from IBK Servicios Turisticos, great reliable services, modern airconditioned Vans, friendly Drivers, always on Time and great Rates.
i use their services often for my own business customers when my own Vehicles are filled, never had a Prob with Bronly in over 15 years.
you can contact him for a quote or ask questions or a Transfer booking on
ibkservicios@gmail.com

happy Travelling
