Brisbane Airport Jucy — campervan alternative for coast trips

Rented their standard car but appreciated the campervan vibe of the company. Younger staff, more casual, but the Kia Carnival was properly cleaned and ready on time.

Brisbane Airport Avis — Queensland sunshine ready

Heading to Noosa and the staff recommended the right car for the coast drive. The Mazda CX-5 had excellent AC for Queensland heat. Return before the morning rush was seamless.

Brisbane CBD Budget — Story Bridge convenience

City pickup saved airport time. The Mazda 3 was perfect for Gold Coast day trips. Parking apps recommended.

Editorial · Redspot · Brisbane Airport

Brisbane Airport Redspot — locals know best

Australian-owned operator with no hidden fees and a surprisingly new fleet. The staff actually smiled and the Corolla had under 5,000km on it.

Editorial · Hertz · Brisbane CBD

Brisbane CBD Hertz — skip the Airtrain markup

Picked up from the city branch on Adelaide Street. Saved on airport surcharges and the car was identical to what we'd have gotten airside. Return before 8am was painless.

Good local option

Pickup was quick and the staff were more relaxed than the big counters. Car had a few marks but they were already noted. No issues after return.
