Sabrina was very helpful - we had to pick up the car a day late and the flight was delayed on the day of pick up but she was able to help us with minimal hassle. Picking up the car by the curb was an unusual experience for us, for sure, but she made it a breeze. The car was clean, in great conditions and the return process was seamless (at the curb again, but it is an advantage given how busy the small airport is). Excellent service!
