Airport car rental in Flagstaff, on the road to the South Rim
Avis has a counter at Flagstaff Pulliam Airport, which makes it a practical pickup point if you're flying into Flagstaff and driving north to the South Rim (about 80 miles) rather than routing through Phoenix. It's a familiar national chain, which has upsides and downsides worth knowing before you book.
Google reviews for this location run mixed, with a 3.1 rating from 133 reviews. Several recent reviewers flagged vehicles being given away despite a confirmed reservation, and a few described cars that hadn't been cleaned or inspected between rentals — flat-ish tires, low windshield fluid, or a maintenance light already on at pickup. If you're heading straight for canyon roads and long stretches of highway, it's worth doing a walk-around of the vehicle before you drive off the lot.
Booking ahead is standard practice with any airport rental counter here, but given the reservation issues some travelers reported, it doesn't hurt to confirm your car the day before pickup and have a backup plan if the counter is sold out.

My rental had an engine light and was able to get a new vehicle at Flagstaff airport. The new car had no issues.

Go Avis! When the others say no Avis budget says yes. For best locals rate go to airport location or store on Route 66. 10 stars!

I was surprised to see the negative reviews, the last few times I have rented or returned cars here I have had excellent service and friendly professional interactions with the staff. The owner and his team made sure I was taken care of will definitely be back.

Our flight out of Flagstaff was cancelled due to wildfires with no other flights out until at least the next day. We approached the Avis counter and Lucas and his manager were amazing. They got us into one way car even though technically they didn’t have any availability and it was after hours. We were so grateful for their help!
