What This Actually Is
The Slow Part of Landing Is Getting the Car
Renting at an airport normally means solving a second transport problem before you get to the first one. We take that out — you send your flight details with the booking, and the vehicle is waiting when you clear the terminal.
UsuallyA shuttle bus to an off-site rental centre
HereThe vehicle is at the airport. The first thing you do after baggage claim is drive.
UsuallyA counter queue behind four earlier flights
HereThere is no counter. The paperwork is a signature at the vehicle.
UsuallyPickup instructions you have to decode
HereYou are told where to walk, and it reaches you on landing.
It is our vehicle delivery with a terminal in place of an address. San Antonio International Airport (SAT) is where nearly all of it happens, and most of those arrivals head straight out to the places we serve.
Airports We Meet You At
One Airport We Run On, Two We Will Come To
San Antonio International is the one this business was built around. Ask about the other two when you book and you get a straight yes or no.
On request
Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS)
Flying into Austin because the fare worked out better? Tell us at booking and the meet-up is quoted with the rest.
Arranged per booking, so ask early — particularly for a late arrival.On request
Stinson Municipal Airport (SSF)
For private and charter arrivals. Stinson has no scheduled airline service, so this is the general-aviation option.
Send a tail number and your operator instead of a flight number.
How a hand-over at SAT works
One arrangement, settled in advance rather than worked out on the kerb. We send you the exact spot before you land, and the return runs the same way in reverse.
- The long-term garage
- The vehicle is waiting in SAT's long-term parking garage, and it goes back to the same place. No shuttle to an off-site rental centre.
- 24 hours' notice
- That is what an airport hand-over needs on the booking. Give us the flight when you book rather than on the day and the rest is ours.
- No airport fee
- Delivery to the garage and the return from it carry no charge of their own. It is the same rate as collecting from us.
The other two airports
Austin and Stinson are arranged per booking rather than run as a standing service, so the point, the notice and the cost are all quoted with the rest.
Not flying in?
The same hand-over works to a home, a hotel or a workplace anywhere we serve.
How vehicle delivery works →The full service area →How the Meet-Up Works
From Wheels Down to Driving Out
Arriving and handing back are the same four moves in opposite order. The third is the one people actually worry about, so it gets its own answer.
Who Books These
Five Arrivals That Should Not End at a Counter
Four of these are military travel and the fifth is everybody else. What they share is a trip where a vehicle is not optional and the airport is where it starts.
PCS in, with no vehicle yet
Your household goods are on one truck and your car is on another. That gap is measured in weeks.
TDY on a window that keeps moving
Orders shift and return dates slide. A rental that ends when you actually leave is worth more.
Family flying in for a ceremony
Graduation and retirement weekends fill this city. Four people and their bags need one vehicle.
Contractors and business travel
A week of site visits across the city, terms you can see up front, and a receipt that makes sense.
Anything longer than a few days
Past a couple of days the fares add up, and a vehicle outside at two in the morning is worth something.
What We Need From You
Two Lists, and the Order Matters
One is filled in a week out from your sofa. The other has to be in your hand when you walk out of the terminal.
Goes on the booking
Before you fly
Your flight number
Airline, number and date. Without it a booking is only a pickup time, and a pickup time cannot move.
Which airport, and which way
Arriving, departing, or both. A return leg is arranged with the booking, not at the end.
The vehicle you want
You book a specific vehicle. Tell us the trip — people and bags — and we help you pick the right one.
A card in the driver’s name
Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover, debit included. It has to belong to whoever drives.
On you at the meet point
When you land
A valid driver’s licence
For the driver, at the hand-over. Minimum age 21; under 25 adds a young renter fee of $20 a day.
The deposit card
$250 to $400, set by the vehicle class, released once the vehicle is back in good order.
Your insurance position
CDW and SLI cover is offered at reservation if your own policy will not transfer — settle it before you fly, not at the garage.
Three things, and you are gone
The walk-round, the fuel level, and a signature. That is the entire hand-over.
The exact terms live in one place
Age tiers, deposits, cards, mileage, fuel and cancellation live on the requirements page rather than being summarised differently on five service pages. If something on your booking sits close to a line, ask before you fly rather than at the meet point.
Rental requirements and policies →Fees, Timing and Reach
What It Costs and What It Depends On
What the meet-up adds, how late you can ask, and how far we will take it. Here is what is settled and what is still being confirmed.
01 · The fee
There is not one
- At SAT
- Delivery to the long-term garage and the return from it carry no charge. Meeting your flight costs the same as collecting the vehicle from us, which is nothing.
- Anywhere else
- Going somewhere other than the airport afterwards is an ordinary delivery: a fee applies, based on distance and the pickup time, and quoted while you book.
- What that buys you
- The figure you agree to is the figure you pay. Nothing appears at the meet point that was not on the screen.
02 · The timing
24 hours’ notice, and it is on the booking
- Our hours
- Pickup and return run Monday to Friday 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM and Saturday 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM. A request inside those hours gets an answer inside them.
- Landing outside them
- An after-hours drop-off is available on request. For an arrival outside our hours, put the flight on the booking and we will tell you what is possible before you fly.
Booking against an arrival
Give us the flight at least 24 hours out and the garage hand-over is arranged. Inside that, ask anyway — it becomes a question about what is actually free rather than a rule.
03 · The reach
Where we will take it from the terminal
- Routine
- Anywhere across San Antonio and out to the JBSA community. SAT straight to one of the three installations is our most ordinary trip.
- Past that
- It turns on the address and the hour rather than a line on a map. Tell us where you are going and you get a straight answer while you book.
A published limit
Pending confirmation
No boundary has been set and we would rather not invent one. A long run is a question worth asking rather than one to answer for yourself.
If the flight is cancelled rather than delayed
A delay moves your booking and costs nothing — we are watching the arrival. A cancellation is the one thing with a clock on it:
- Full refund
- 48 hours or more before pickup
- Partial refund
- 24 to 48 hours before pickup
- No refund
- Under 24 hours, including same day
Why Rent With Us
Built in Military City, for the People Who Land Here
San Antonio moves service members and their families through that terminal every week of the year, and this company is run by people who have been on the arriving end of it.
Who we rent to
- Army
- Navy
- Air Force
- Marine Corps
- Space Force
- Coast Guard
Active duty, Guard, Reserve, retired, and the families who move with them. Civilians too.
Veteran owned and operated
Run by people who served, in the city that answers to Military City. It is why an arrival is planned around your flight rather than our opening hours.
All six branches, and the families
Military travel is the ordinary case here, not a niche we accommodate. The families moving with it count as much as the orders.
The JBSA community
We serve the community at Lackland, Randolph and Fort Sam Houston and agree the hand-over point when you book. SAT to any of the three is our most ordinary trip.
Straightforward pricing
Terms before you book, not at a counter with your bags on the floor. Nothing appears at the hand-over that was not on the screen.
Real people answering
Someone local who can make a decision about your rental. Worth most at eleven at night when a connection has gone.
Ready when you get there
Clean, fuelled and waiting at the meet point rather than being brought round while you stand with your bags.
The Other Four
Airport Pickup Is One of Five Ways to Rent Here
Most arrivals combine two — a pickup at the airport and a longer booking, or a same-day change of plan midweek.
Same-Day Rentals
Plans changed this morning. Tell us what you need and we will work to get you moving today.
Vehicle Delivery
We bring the vehicle to you anywhere we serve in the San Antonio area.
Long-Term & Weekly Rentals
For PCS gaps, extended TDY, and stretches when you need a vehicle longer than a few days.
Young Driver Rentals
What a driver under 25 actually pays, published rather than discovered at the counter.
Where we go once you are moving
The city, Bexar County and the JBSA community at Lackland, Randolph and Fort Sam Houston.

Seven Questions People Ask Before Booking an Arrival
Four have a complete answer today. Three say exactly what they depend on, which is the honest version while those details are confirmed.
My flight is delayed. Do I need to rebook the vehicle?
No. Your flight number is on the booking so a delay is our problem rather than yours — we are watching the arrival, and the meet-up moves with it. Message us if you can, but nothing breaks if you cannot get a signal. Tell us about a diversion as soon as you know, because a different airport changes what is possible. A delayed flight is not a cancellation, so talk to us rather than cancelling.
Do you meet me at baggage claim or at the kerb?
You get the exact meeting point sent to you on landing, so you are reading it before you stand up. Depending on the airport, the hour and how you are travelling, that is the pickup lane outside arrivals, a space in the parking area, or a point just off the airport. We agree which one when you book and confirm it before you land, so you are never walking out of a terminal wondering where to go.
What if I land late at night, or outside your normal hours?
It is arranged rather than refused, and the thing that arranges it is telling us the arrival time when you book rather than on the night. Standard pickup and return hours are Monday to Friday 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM and Saturday 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM, closed Sunday, and an airport hand-over needs 24 hours’ notice on the booking. A late landing we know about in advance is straightforward; red-eyes and delayed connections are normal here.
How do I return the vehicle before an early flight?
The same way in reverse, arranged with the booking rather than at the end of the rental. Give us your departure time when you book, you leave the vehicle in the long-term garage where you collected it, and you walk into the terminal — no lot to find, no key box in the dark. It is free in that direction too. Bring it back at the fuel level it left at. Our hours are Monday to Friday 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM and Saturday 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM, closed Sunday, and an after-hours drop-off is available on request.
What do I need to have on me at the airport?
A valid driver’s licence for whoever is driving, and the card the booking is in. We take Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover, debit included, and it has to be in the driver’s name. A refundable deposit of $250 to $400 applies, set by the vehicle class, released once the vehicle is back in good order. Minimum age is 21, with a $20 a day young renter fee under 25.
Is there an extra charge for meeting me at the airport?
A delivery fee applies whenever we bring the vehicle to you rather than you collecting it, worked out from the distance and the pickup time. We quote it while you are booking, in the same quote as everything else, so the figure you agree to is the figure you pay. If collecting from us works out better for your trip, we will say so.
Can someone else in my party collect the vehicle?
Ask when you book rather than at the meet point. Whoever drives needs to be on the booking with a valid licence, and the card has to be in the driver’s name — so a spouse or colleague collecting for you is a matter of getting them onto the agreement in advance, not something to sort out at the kerb. Our requirements page sets out who has to be named.
