Hertz Rent-A-Car UAE, a part of the Al-Futtaim Automotive Group, has opened a new car rental location at the Dubai International airport.

 

The new branch becomes the 21st Hertz location in the UAE among a global network of 10,300 locations, said a statement.

 

The location marks the car rental company’s sixth airport branch in the UAE. 

 

Located at Terminal 2, it will ensure complete Hertz presence at Dubai International as it joins Hertz’s existing branches at Terminal 1 and 3.

 

The new Terminal 2 location will also feature Firefly Car Rental, a low cost car rental brand owned by the Hertz Corporation, giving customers the freedom to choose a car rental service that best suits their requirements. 

 

Both Hertz and Firefly franchisees in the UAE are operated by Al Futtaim Automotive Group.

 

Nigel Johnson, general manager of Hertz UAE, said: "The new airport location is another important step for us as we continue to expand our car rental network across major UAE airports and aim to be the car rental provider of choice for domestic and international clients. 

 

"We recognise the importance of travelers from other countries, especially the GCC region, as UAE heads towards the Expo 2020 and we know the flights coming in to Terminal 2 cater to a large part of this customer base. Providing the customers the option of choosing Hertz or Firefly with guaranteed world-class service will go a long way in making their trip to UAE more memorable.”

 

Eugene Barry, executive vice president of the commercial and communications group at Dubai Airports, said: “Creating quality partnerships and providing choice to our local and global customers is a primary consideration for Dubai Airports. We are delighted to extend Hertz’s footprint at Dubai International, and welcome them to Terminal 2.”

 

To mark the opening of the new branch on 29 November, Hertz and Firefly have offered exclusive deals on daily, weekly and monthly rentals. 

 

The customers can benefit from up to 20 per cent off rental prices and other special deals when renting from the new Terminal 2 airport location. - TradeArabia News Service
