    The line at Avis.

    Avis at McArthur airport is the worse. Second time and I learned my lesson. Never again. You're on line for an hour to get a car you don't want. The blind old lady is the worse. Time for her to retire.

    No big line but waiting hours.

    Avis/ Budget car rental at Islip Macarther Airport on Long Island has to be the the worst place in the entire country to pick up a rental car. I was here 3 years ago , I should have learned. there is only 3 people in front of me. I've been here an hour and half and line hasn't moved. I've been here almost as long as my flight. Brand new building with zero staff. There are people who checked in already and still waiting for there car to be " cleaned". If I knew this would happen again I would have flown into JFK. This airport is empty for a reason. This is one of them. No one seems to care. Don't ever use Avis/ Budget from here. You've been warned.

    We reserved a sedan but when we arrived, only minivans and pick up trucks were available (not just…read morefor us but for everyone in line regardless of what they had reserved). We took a minivan. It smelled like cigarette smoke and was dusty/dirty inside. No way to call the location to see if a different car was available the next day.

    We reserved a car for a 2-week vacation when we went to pick it up we waited 2 hours before we…read morefinally got our car. They told us that they just waiting for the cars to be cleaned. ps the car we got was not running so great first the car would not start so we needed a jump start ok then a few days later driving through the Midtown tunnel and going east a few miles on the 495 we broke down after being in stop-go traffic and the car just died. We had to be towed we could not get in touch with Budget they needed an address we were just sitting on the highway and could not give them an exact address so they said they could not do anything. Then we call 911 to try to get help cars were wising by at 65 -70 miles an hour. We had to get out of the car because where we were stopped we were half in the left lane because there was a very small area we realy did not know what to do. Stay in the car or get out was I was never so afraid we would be killed. We were there for 3 1/2 hours before we finally got towed which cost us $190.00 then we got to Butegt at LaGuardia where we waited in a line for about an hour or so to get to talk to someone to get another car. When we did get to talk to the woman she was not sure what to do but lucky for us another guy heard what happened to us & he got us another car to finish our trip. Both cars we got had very high mileage Budget may be less money than other agencies not sure. But I can tell you I will never use them again!
