Initially booked with AVIS, but remembered the unpleasant experience in Los Angeles where AVIS forced insurance charges. Switched to Europcar before the trip. Both pickup and dropoff were smooth without excessive upselling. We got the car we wanted.

Very satisfied

Please note that Barcelona airport has two terminals. Make sure to choose the correct one when booking, as they are not well connected.

1. Never trust after-hours car return arrangements. Europecar in Barcelona is extremely bad. More than 20 days after returning a car, they charged extra, claiming the air compressor was damaged. This is outrageous! How can internal damage after such a long time be blamed on the previous renter? Another car had scratches when picked up, which I reported and photographed. Still, I was charged for repairs. 2. QEEQ is powerless in disputes. Despite providing photos, evidence, and reasons, there is no result from QEEQ. All I got was to wait patiently. After more than a month, there's no progress. I decided to use insurance for the compensation. 3. Always get full insurance. Without it, European car rental companies will find excuses, and QEEQ is useless. There's no way to recover your losses.

We prepaid for the full amount, but due to a flight delay of over two hours, the rental company gave our reserved car to someone else. We had to wait at the airport for more than an hour, and the car they eventually provided was very dirty, with bird droppings on it.
