Budget staff at Seattle airport uses some manipulative tactics. First, they ask about the number of people and luggage, then tell you that the car you booked is not available and suggest you upgrade for double the price. After refusing, the staff claim the price includes full insurance and advise you to sign electronically to save time. If you trust them, you may fall for it, as I discovered the next day that they had added duplicate insurance, which cost almost as much as the car rental.

Both pickup and drop-off are very convenient, no complicated procedures, impressed by the trust system in the US.

When picking up the car, I was given the wrong contract, but at least the issue was resolved when returning the car. It just took a bit long, both for picking up the car and resolving the issue. Takoma Airport's phone is hard to reach, and the same goes for calling other stores.

The vehicle was relatively new, pick-up and drop-off procedures were simple, and the staff was friendly.
