Booked VW Golf class, Golf was on the perimeter but sales agent pretended there was no Golf and I must be mistaken, so I got a small ugly Ford. Due to need of bigger trunk (short notice) i asked for estate wagon in almost same class. Golf estate and Seat Leon estate would be available. Prebooking price would have been exactly 5 Euro more for the whole weekend. Sales agent however insisted on 35 Euro more even though they havent had many bookings for the weekend and many available cars. Didnt take the offer as it was heavily inflated without any reason. Quite a bad experience after a very good one before.
The car rental process at Munich Airport is indeed very busy. Europcar, SIXT, AVIS, and Hertz counters all have long lines. Europcar had five out of seven desks open, which was less than other companies who had all their counters open. However, a positive aspect was their numbered ticket system, so you don't have to stand in line after taking a number; you can browse nearby shops. This time, I waited nearly 40 minutes to get the car. I noticed that foreigners finished their process in just a few minutes; it took me less than ten minutes, but the groups of Chinese people in front of me took significantly longer, especially one group that took over half an hour.
The attitude towards Chinese customers is very poor. They greet Western customers with smiles, but when it came to us, they had black faces, with a very perfunctory and impatient attitude. We had booked a Mercedes A-Class, but they gave us a Chevrolet instead, which had an empty tank and couldn't even start! It took more than an hour to resolve our rental issue; they kept delaying!
A very pleasant experience, looking forward to the next time
