The person sitting in the back seat better be tiny.

Any evidence on the process of getting the car. In little detail. If Im arriving J from PRG and connecting F to USA will LH handle this or do I basically leave LH hands and do it on my own?

How is the routes they give at 4pm? (on a saturday)

Has anyone done this with darkness approaching?

Thanks for all of your help

I booked online and tried to email/call to make certain I could reserve a Panamera. They could not guarantee.

On arrival I went to F lounge and they handled securing the car and gave me instructions on where to go for pick up.

I did not get to do a "pre programmed route". Maybe I went too fast and didn't follow instruction or the Avis agent didn't change the GPS to english. Either way, enjoyed hitting the autobahn and will plan better to do it next time.

Such great option.

I have an upcoming 5:40 layover at MUC in a few weeks and would like to do a Porsche rental. Any tips or advice on picking up / dropping off the car, etc would be appreciated. Thanks!

Does the price include an additional driver? If not, can one be added for a fee (how much)? I can't find it anywhere on the site or my confirmation email.

No, I think we paid circa 10 EUR for an additional driver.

My flight arrives at 11:10am (terminal 1). How long would it take from landing to the avis office? (to estimate a rental start time)
Thanks!

30 minutes to one hour, depends entirely on the immigration line or lack of.

Does anybody have any recent experience regarding the 3 hour limit? How strict is Avis if the return of the car is 30min or so late?

You will be charged extra if you're late.

They made it clear it must be returned within 3 hours.

Anyone's got experience with a Non EU driver's license? Mine is issued in Argentina, and don't know if I'll need an international driver's license (translation) for this.
thanks!
