 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi
I have arranged to hire a car from the French side of Geneva airport on Monday 12th February at 8pm from Alamo. I have just noticed on their website that the hire desk closes at 8pm on the Monday. This wasn’t made clear to me at the time of the booking.
Does anyone know how long staff remain at their desk? Will the staff remain at the desk in the event of a flight delay? I have tried emailing and phoning them but I cannot get a response.
I can cancel the booking without charge and may need to do this in the event that the desk is closed. Any info or advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Glenn

Hmm. I suggest you'd be best to cancel the booking now and rebook on the Swiss side of the airport, where hours are much longer (they waited for me till after midnight once, bringing back a car which had been disabled and delayed by a puncture). The Swiss side cars will have winter tyres - and you will be hoping for snow, won't you? And a motorway vignette.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I've had a hire car from french side Entetprise and ran thtough the airport to make closing time. I was still late but they said they always stay until booked cars are collected.

Thanks for the info. Hopefully I can get in contact with them to confirm either way!

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I'll stick a quick question on here, rather than a new thread, but if I hire from the Swiss side, is there a cut off for having winter tyres?
@Origen, mentioned that hiring on the Swiss will have winters, but as we are going very late season (20th April) does that make a difference? I can't imagine, for example, getting winter tyres if I was going in July IYKWIM.

@SHAP, Sorry, I don't know. But if I ran a huge fleet of hired cars in Switzerland I wouldn't be changing tyres twice a year!!

@Origen, sounds sensible. Most of the options (Swiss side) with car hire have snow chains as an add on, not winter tyres, but just come across one with both available as options rather than included, which made me think...
