28 Car Rental Brands at Queenstown Airport (ZQN)

Very satisfied. The car rental company kindly reminded us that the return time was close to our flight time and arranged for their colleagues in Christchurch to open early for us. We greatly appreciate their special accommodation.

Lovely team. I forgot not to lock the car with the key but to use the remote- and ended up with the burglar alarm going off!!! but the team replied to my phone call immediately and solved the problem. All very good! I really liked the phone holder and multiple cables provided to allow me to use my cellphone for google maps. I thought the steering wheel lock was a bit over the top- maybe good for Shanhai but not really needed in Central Otago!

The car's trunk was scratched by the garage door, and I was charged 2000 NZD for repairs. Although I expected car repairs to be expensive in New Zealand, local friends informed me that this quote is twice as much as a 4S shop, which is quite unreasonable.

When I arrived at the location, they said there were no cars available, so they upgraded me to a 7-seater Ford. Despite purchasing full insurance, I was inexplicably charged an additional 93 New Zealand dollars after returning the car. I contacted the platform several times over several days but received no response, and I have already filed a complaint with 12315.

For actual service, just go with Hertz. In Queenstown, renting a car requires queuing for the paperwork, but both pickup and drop-off are relatively convenient when using Hertz directly.

This would have to be the worst car rental experience that I have ever experienced having rented cars in most continents. I will recommend everyone NOT renting from EZU. Firstly, it took well over 30 mins for the van to pick us up from the airport. Then the car given to us was over 10 years old and had over 210k kms on the clock. We picked the car up at night. Inside the car was a mess and I didn’t even want to sit in the car as it was filthy with 10 years of grime on the inside.. The rental form had that there were no defects on the car and given that we couldn’t see at night we looked the next morning. It would be lucky if any panels of the car weren’t scratched. We could barely get the car over 80 kms per hour and the car would then start to shake making the car very unsafe. We called the office to complain about these things and never got a return phone call. Having rented a lot of cars over the world, I am sorry to say that this is by far the worst experience that I have ever had. The only positive comment is that your team didn’t try and claim damage insurance on the car when I returned.

The insurance for the rental car seems almost mandatory. We might not have been very clear about this initially. When we got there, we said we didn't need insurance, but the rental company insisted that without it, we needed a credit card guarantee, and cash wasn't acceptable. This wasn't communicated to us beforehand during the rental process. I think your platform should explain this better. Since we didn't have a credit card, we were forced to buy the most expensive insurance (we could only buy the most expensive one? This feels like a forced sale), which was really frustrating.

Unfortunately we had terrible experience with Jucy. It was the only car rental company available , as everything else was fully booked . The car we were given was in horrible condition , very hard to drive. They charged us over $600 for 3 days and most of our last day we spent on one spot unable to start the car. The service provided when your car breakdown was the worse we ever experienced . We we holding on line for 30 min. Then we were told to stay by our car that someone is going to call back.. an hour later still no one called .. so we kept trying to call all different people , even an Jucy shuttle driver , after 2 hours we finally got on hold someone and AAA repair service was organized. .. no one showed up for an hour. Luckily the car "magically" started again otherwise we would be still stuck there now. We drove it straight to the office because we we worried to stop , that it wouldnt start again. The worse thing is that they washed it and put it back for rent. I really feel sorry for who ever gets the same car.

This is a local, small car rental company. Due to the pandemic, some branches have closed, making it difficult for me to return the car at a different location (I wanted to return it early because of the lockdown, but I couldn't because I couldn't book a ferry between the islands and had to stay near the port for an extra week. I noticed that other larger rental chains allowed flexible returns at the port). If you need flexible return options, you should pay attention to this. But this is probably only an issue during the pandemic. Although the company is small, their service is quite personalized; you can contact their staff anytime. I drove the car for almost a month, and they were very understanding of my changing plans whenever I checked in with them, which felt quite warm. The extension fee was charged at the original daily rate, which was very transparent. The car was not a 2017-18 model Corolla; I believe it was a 2012-13 model. It didn't have USB charging or music playback, but it was still fairly reliable despite being older.

I've rented cars overseas for many years, and this was the worst experience, hands down! First, our flight landed at 7 PM, but no one answered the phone when we called the car rental company. We had to take a taxi, costing nearly 30 NZD. The car rental location was very hard to find, and the GPS directions were off. Fortunately, the taxi driver was helpful, and we eventually found it.

The Queenstown branch is small, but they have a wide range of vehicles. However, once you arrive at the store, they will strongly recommend insurance, which is quite expensive. It is much cheaper to buy it in your home country. Britz's cars are relatively old; mine had 190,000 kilometers on it. If possible, I recommend Maui, whose cars are two to three years old, while Britz's are over three years old. KEA's cars are only one year old.

However, when I returned the car half an hour early and left it in the airport parking lot, we didn't meet in person. I had cleaned the car before returning it, but since I didn't have a vacuum cleaner, there were some sand and a few food crumbs (just a few pumpkin seeds) left inside.
