EasyCar Car Rental at Houston Airport

George Bush Intercontinental Airport is found just north of downtown Houston, and in the state of Texas. It is a large North American airport, serving around forty million passengers per annum, and is recognised by its code of IAH. Although the airport has many options for ground transportation, in the form of buses and taxis, passengers often prefer to rent a car, and travel in a more private fashion. Easycar George Bush Intercontinental Airport is one of the car hire companies available, and they are particularly skilled at providing high quality vehicles at low car rental rates. Easycar can be found at the airport’s new consolidated rental car facility.

The George Bush Intercontinental Airport Car Rental Centre is located a few kilometres from the five terminal buildings that are used for passenger operations. The decision to move the car rental counters out of the terminals was made to ensure that a level playing field was created for all the airport car hire companies, and to help reduce traffic on the airport roadways. It also created more space within the terminal buildings for further passenger services and concessionaries. The new facility was opened in 2003, and has proved to be very successful. It is a two-level building, with all the car hire counters on one level, and there is a large parking area within walking distance of the car hire counters where the rented vehicles are parked. The facility also has a large area dedicated to bus maintenance and fuel pumps. Easycar is found at the Rental Car Centre along with Hertz, Avis, Europcar, National, Thrifty, Alamo, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise and Auto Europa.

Although Easycar is not within the terminals at George Bush Intercontinental Airport, passengers have access to shuttle buses that travel the distance in less than five minutes. It is a common bus system, which means that each car hire company does not run their own shuttle service. This allows customers to ride on any of the shuttles available, and greatly reduces congestion on the airport roadways. Once passengers have arrived and collected their baggage items, they should follow the signs that read ‘Rental Car Shuttles’ from the arrival areas. The shuttles are white and maroon in colour, and are frequently available from all the terminals. Should passengers need to transfer from one terminal to another, the inter-terminal train can be used, which is one of the airport’s efficient people mover systems.

The George Bush Intercontinental Airport car hire companies, including Easycar, have a large range of vehicles for hire, and they are all only of late models, ensuring the greatest measure of safety, reliability and comfort. All Easycar’s vehicles are recommended to be reserved online, in advance of the customer’s arrival at the airport, in order to ensure that the ideal car is ready and waiting. Advanced reservations are particularly recommended for specialty or luxury vehicles, or for cars that will need to be fitted with Easycar hand controls. This device is used by persons with a lower limb disability, as it operates the brake and accelerator pedal of certain types of automatic vehicles. From the rental location of George Bush Intercontinental Airport, hand controls are available from the car hire companies with no extra charges.

Easycar’s vehicles can be hired from various car categories. The Chevrolet Aveo is an example of a car in the Economy category, and is a nice choice for customers who prefer a lower car rental rate. The car is also easy to drive and light on fuel. Compact category cars are also popular choices, similar to the Chevrolet Cobalt, and a standard-sized car is the Pontiac G6. Standard Cars are, in general, a little more spacious, and have more room for luggage than Economy or Compact cars. Vehicles of a slightly larger size include the Chevrolet Impala and Buick LaCrosse, which are Fullsize and Premium cars. The majority of Easycar’s vehicles have automatic transmissions and many other useful features, such as air conditioning, cruise control, power steering, airbag protection and anti-theft systems. Most are hired with unlimited mileage as well, but certain luxury cars may have a limited mileage rental.

A number of SUVs can be hired from Easycar as well. The Chevy Equinox is a Standard SUV, the Ford Escape is an example of an Intermediate SUV and the Dodge Durango is a Fullsize SUV that is spacious for four adults and three children. Another vehicle ideal for seven is the Chevrolet Uplander, found in the People Carrier category. Although many of Easycar’s vehicles can be hired by persons just 21 years of age or older, SUVs and Luxury cars generally have a minimum age requirement of 25. Persons 25 years of age and older will also not pay extra charges for young driver fees, which amount to approximately $25.00 per day of car hire and per young driver registered on the rental contract. In additional to a valid drivers license, customers of Easycar will require a major credit card, such as American Express, Mastercard, Visa, Discover, Diner’s Club, PHH or Sears.

Easycar one way hires can be arranged from the car rental location of George Bush Intercontinental Airport. One way hire services may, however, only be available for certain vehicle categories, and there may be restrictions regarding how far the vehicle may be driven. Always confirm the return location with Easycar before finalising your travel arrangements. Longer rentals usually require the customer to purchase a full tank of fuel at the start of the rental period, in which case the vehicle can be returned as ‘empty as possible’ as no refunds are given for unused fuel.
