Romantic Trip from Frankfurt to Munich, Highly Recommended

Sometimes the queue at the counter is very long, sometimes it's completely empty. It depends on the time; on average, the wait is 10 to 20 minutes. The service attitude is alright; some are very business-like, and some are more eager to help. Encountering a good employee is a matter of luck.

Picking up and returning the car was quite convenient. However, due to the exchange rate conversion between Euros and USD (my domestic credit card is a dual currency card for RMB and USD), Europcar in Paris charged a 6% service fee (over $50) without prior notice. This is extremely dishonest!

We arrived at the store on time but were told the car we reserved was unavailable and were offered a Hyundai instead, which was far from what we wanted. We had to pay extra to rent a Skoda. How can they operate this way? I suggest avoiding this rental company as they don't reserve the car you book!

This time we rented a car from Europcar, a well-established European car rental company. We picked up the car at Frankfurt Airport in Germany. The car was very new, and we didn’t encounter any forced insurance sales. Despite our not-so-great English, the counter staff was very patient with us and provided good service. We returned the car at a drop-off point in downtown Vienna. Since it was a Saturday and the rental company was closed, we followed the instructions for self-service return, parked the car in the designated spot, and dropped the keys in the box. The pick-up and return process went very smoothly.

Our flight arrived early at Terminal 1 of Frankfurt Airport, but the car pickup point was at Terminal 2. Germans are very strict; at Terminal 1, we were told we could only pick up the car at Terminal 2. It took some effort to find the pickup point at Terminal 2, which is located under McDonald's. We had to pick up the car at the exact time on the order because the car wasn't ready yet. We bought supplementary full insurance on the QEEQ website, but it didn't show up in the German order. Luckily, there were no accidents. Adding an additional driver costs an extra 50 euros, but the insurance must be purchased through them to be covered.
