Car hire queues at Malaga airport, especially during the month of August, can get very looooong.

Quote:

Last August we flew to Barcelona with E.Jet and booked a car from the airport through them – the price was reasonable but not rock bottom. When we arrived the other car hire companies had two or three customers but we had to stand in a queue for two and a half hours before we got our car.

This year we are keen not to repeat this experience at Malaga airport in the same busy fortnight. The very lowest price is not our priority – not standing in a quarter mile long is!

Which company would you use?

Thanks

Answer:

All rental desks at Malaga Airport in August will have big queues – and even if you book with a broker, your car will still be supplied by one of the majors and you have to wait in line.
What I suggest is that you use a ‘meet and greet’ service offered by one of several off-site rental companies, such as Dragon Cars Their office is just outside the terminal building and a representative will meet your flight and escort you to their depot. Their rates seem good too.
