The rental store at Dubai T1 is right at the exit, easy to spot. We were traveling with six people and had reserved a 7-seater XC90. At the airport store, the staff informed me that the car wasn't available and that they could upgrade me to a BMW 7 Series. However, the 7 Series couldn't accommodate all of us. Eventually, they offered a Mazda CX-9, which is also a 7-seater. I thought that was fine, but when I asked about the price, the staff said it must be calculated based on the original order price. I pointed to their price list and said that it wasn't fair to charge the higher XC90 price for a Mazda CX-9. The staff referred to the contract terms, stating they couldn't guarantee the reserved model but must provide a vehicle with the same number of seats. The Mazda CX-9 is not the same class as the XC90, and I insisted that they charge based on the Mazda CX-9 rate. After a prolonged discussion, I was about to switch to another company when they suddenly agreed to give me the XC90, claiming it was initially reserved for another customer who hadn't arrived yet. Given the new XC90 had only 2000 kilometers on it, I suspect they were reluctant to rent it out. Additionally, the airport store said there would be a 150 DHS charge for returning the car at a different location. However, when I later decided to drop off the car at the Dubai Mall location due to changes in my travel plans, I called the 800 number on the contract to make the change, and they didn't mention any additional fee. So far, the credit card charge reflects only toll fees, and no extra charges have been added, though there might be additional charges later. Overall, the airport store's attitude was not favorable; it seems they were trying to manipulate tourists.

Overall it's fine. When giving the car, they just let you have a quick look. During inspection, they use a UV flashlight to check the whole car and found scratches under the side skirts.

Service is good, but the speed is a bit slow.

The car is terribly uncomfortable and consumes a lot of petrol.

Like: The stuff really friendly
Dislike: I didn’t get the same vehicle as I reserved
