Myrtle Beach Airport Car Rental
Myrtle Beach Airport Car Rental.....
As of this writing, there are nine car rental agencies located at the airport. These include Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, National, Thrifty and U-Save Auto Rental. While the winter hours vary a little, you can expect each of the companies to be available from 8 am to midnight, every day of the week. Pricing for these companies will vary from day to day, and car to car. It is always simpler to use a rental car comparison site (shameless plug, I know) to locate the best deal, on the best car available.
These car rental companies located at Myrtle Beach International Airport are both well known and reliable. Driving in the Myrtle Beach area is extremely easy but the friendly staff at any of the car rental offices will be more than happy to answer any of your questions or address any of your concerns.
Myrtle Beach International Airport.....
Myrtle Beach International is growing but still maintains the compact, easy to navigate service plan that so many fliers have come to look forward to. The MYR airport expansion program is expected to be complete by early 2013. A new terminal will house 13 gates compared to the 7 offered at the present time. Owned by Horry County, MYR also has a new General Aviation terminal for the privately owned aircraft.
Predictors indicate over 800,000 people will fly in and out of Myrtle Beach. Those travelers will always find MYR clean, safe and passenger focused. Parking lots and airline ticket counters are easy to find and the car rental companies are located right in the baggage claim area.
Myrtle Beach International offers nonstop service to over 16 major airports including O’Hare in Chicago, LaGuardia in New York and Dulles in Virginia. Top carriers flying in and out of Myrtle Beach include United Express, American Eagle, Spirit, Continental and Delta. MYR is conveniently located in the south end of Myrtle Beach on Jetport Road.
Myrtle Beach Airport Amenities.....
There are a couple of restaurant / cafe type establishments within the airport. There is a Pizza Hut, and Subway on the 2nd level of the terminal. There is also a Sam Adams Bar and Grill on 2nd floor as well. It's not in the food court area, but stands alone. It stays open until all the planes have flown out for the day.
One nice thing about the Myrtle Beach Int'l, is the free Wi-Fi. Free seems hard to find these days, and this is a refreshing surprise for travelers just wanting to check Facebook or Gmail accounts.
Car Rental Options.....
The 60 miles of sandy beaches, locally referred to as the Grand Strand, have made Myrtle Beach a top vacation spot for generations of families. Great restaurants, shopping, amusement parks and the new one of its kind Skywheel make Myrtle Beach an unforgettable destination.
Many families tend to take advantage of the rental cars at the airport since maneuvering around the area is so easy. Basically, route 17 business or route 17 bypass will take you just about anywhere you want to go. It is almost virtually impossible to get lost in Myrtle Beach. Day trips to historic Charleston or Wilmington, NC are also popular destinations for families. The airport is less than two miles from the beach.
With over 100 golf courses on the Grand Strand, you will regularly see golf bags rolling out on the baggage carousel at Myrtle Beach International. Fortunately, rental vans accommodating up to 15 passengers are also available from the car rental companies for golf groups. Referred to as The Golf Capital of the World, it is easy to understand why so many golfers vacation here.
Car Rental Driving Distances.....
Here are a few mileage estimates out of the Myrtle Beach Airport. Remember, these are only estimates. If you're looking for exact mileage counts, you might want to reserve a GPS when booking your car.
Airport to Beach, 2 Miles.
Airport to North Carolina, 26 Miles
Airport to Sunset Beach, NC, 32 Miles
Airport to Brookgreen Gardens, 15 Miles
Airport to Pawleys Island, 22 Miles
Airport to Georgetown SC, 33 Miles
Airport to Francis Marion National Forest, 48 Miles
Airport to Columbia S.C., 140 Miles
Car Rental Types Available.....
Automobiles available include everything from an economy car (think Chevrolet Aveo) to a Luxury rental car (think Mercedes or Cadillac) and everything in between. SUV's and minivans are usually available for those folks who need a little extra room. Although as much as three times more costly than an economy car, those that can afford it are usually glad they reserved the larger vehicle. It really just makes traveling more enjoyable.
