Each company that has its own branch at the airport has both its office and its fleet on-site, so make sure to remember the exact location where you first picked up your rental. While it will depend on the specific company that you are renting with, you may have the option of dropping off your Valparaiso Destin-Ft Walton Beach Airport car rental outside of normal business hours.
- Both Destin and Fort Walton are busy cities that are popular destinations for tourists, so their roads can often be congested. Avoid getting stuck in a traffic jam by picking up and dropping off your rental around rush hour, which will typically take place between 7 and 9 am and 5.30 and 7 pm.

Pros:
drop off was easy, the rest of the experience was not good!!!Cons:
make it more known that you are going to be closed at noon on a SATURDAY and not open on SUNDAY Some people can only travel on those days, honor the price agreed on, at a different location if not going to be open an the other location, and quit gouging people on the price, (prices were outrageous)10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
Staff at the counter were very friendly and helpful.Cons:
Our car's lift gate was not working properly. It would open and then shut. We were not going to ruin our vacation by taking it back to Budget to let them take time out of our vacation to fix. Thankful someone did not get hurt. Car needed to be checked over before releasing it to customers.2.0 Poor
Patricia, Apr 2021
Pros:
It was quick. The drop off was easy.Cons:
The Budget rep forced me to “upgrade” at the ticket counter since I was dropping the car in another location. (That was known when I placed the reservation.) She tried to get us to pay more for car I reserved or more for an upgraded car. I declined. She then said I had to pay for XM radio at $6 per day or the car I reserved couldn’t leave the lot. I was tired from traveling so we just swallowed it. When we got to the car, it had been smoked in, damaged on the body, and had 56k miles at the start.8.0 Very Good

Pros:
We asked specifically for a car that seated 8 and we got a car that seated 7. There were no cars that seated 8 so someone had to ride illegally and unsafe the entire trip.Cons:
The lady that helped at Pickup was not helpful on instructing drop off after hours. The car stunk. And giving people the amount of seating they request is pretty vital.10.0 Wonderful

The car smelled like smoke when we first open the door. The smell went away but it was slightly annoying.10.0 Wonderful
