Hi Jan- I've done the Continental a.m. departure five times and never had to make special arrangements to drop the truck off in the a.m. We have rented through both Budget and AB and always been fine dropping the truck off between 6-6:30.

Holy Cow....I just looked at my e-ticket and saw that the flight departs at 7:30 a.m. on 6/12.....ugh.

Wow, yeah, a 6:00 a.m. departure is going to require a bit earlier of a truck drop-off. Maybe you should just plan an all-nighter the evening before?

last July my CON flight was scheduled to leave at 7am, and then it was changed before we left.

Sorry now that I'm thinking about it when I bought our ticket the flight was supposed to leave BON at 7:00am. Then we got an email saying that the flight had been changed and was going to leave at 8:00am. But... before we got to Bonaire the flight had been changed back to a 7:00am departure.

have used AB every time (10) and have not had an issue. usually early morning drop off. last time they checked it out after i left--just left it across street, never a problem.did ofcourse talked with them in advance. do find the process of inspection a bit much and anxiety provoking. also use american express to do insurance and that's over the top too but that's what I do :-)

I use AB Car Rental, too. I just came back on Sunday via Continental through Newark. I did the early mornming drop off across the street from the airport entrance at 5:15am. But you have to arrange that with AB ahead of time and sign some paper. I didn't have the car inspected the night before with them, and I never have. When I pulled into the parking lot, a couple approached me and asked if I was from AB because AB said someone would be there to give them a ride to the airport (???). Huh? I said, "Umm, the airport is right there! And you each have a rolling suitcase. Plus, I doubt anyone is really coming to drive you 500 feet." I always have to bug them with an email asking if they found the car in good shape, with all the gas, etc. I don't know why they don't just do that automatically.
