Top tips for renting a car at Shreveport airport
- The Shreveport Regional Airport (SHV) is one of the major airports in Louisiana. It is just 13 minutes from downtown Shreveport, 12 minutes from downtown Bossier City, and less than 30 minutes from the Texas border. There is a public bus that you can take from the airport to both Bossier City and Shreveport. It is more than likely you'll have to change buses at one of the transfer hubs. This means switching buses, transporting your luggage, and finding a place to sit. With a rental car, you can make yourself at home. You can tour nearby quaint towns and suburbs that are not accessible by bus. In your Shreveport Airport rental car, you can also visit sights in the state of Texas.
- This airport has one main terminal that is divided into two floors. The lower-level houses baggage claim, rental car kiosks, and ticket counters. Right outside of the lower-level terminal is the rental car drop-off area. There is TSA, the airline gates, and a restaurant/bar on the upper level. It has an escalator to make it easy to get from one airport floor to another. Car rentals at Shreveport Airport include major companies like Avis, Enterprise, Thrifty, and Hertz.
- At this location, you can rent a small car, a medium or large car, or an SUV. Most car rentals at Shreveport Airport are open from 8 am to nearly midnight which covers most flight departures and arrivals. May, June, and July are the busiest months to visit Shreveport. If you're planning to visit this time of the year, it is important that you book your rental car in advance.
- Use KAYAK to compare prices and travel dates to find the best deal or car rental package. You can also search for add-ons or features like roadside assistance, GPS, XM radio, refueling service, unlimited mileage, and infant/toddler/booster seats, or you can look into adding someone to your rental car contract. At car rentals here, however, you can add your spouse to your contract for no additional charge.
- Book your rental car at Shreveport airport at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Pros:
Thrifty car location was not on Hollywood Ave. So I went to the airport and the Thrify booth was closed with a sign saying go to the Hertz Booth where the man was very rude and told me he did not do third party rentals. So he wanted to rent me a Hertz car completely ignoring the reservation I had and the charges that were paid the day before online and he would not listen to me. He was RACIST and Rude at the Hertz Booth and tried to duplicate charge my card for another rental. He refuse to correct the problem which I was not able to rent a car. My card will be refunded as i recurved a letter saying it would.Cons:
First of all you did not tell me that Thrify was closed down on Hollywood Avenue Sevondly you did not tell me that the Thrify Booth was closed and that people would be sent to Hertz where this same older Racist rude white man would say I don’t do third party rentals this is my second experience with him.2.0 Poor

Pros:
Very helpful and sympathetic AVIS staff. Reservation was cancelled at the desk with minimal issues.Cons:
I can't remember renting a car and being charged a mileage fee above and beyond the base price, taxes and other fees that are usually included in the quoted total. Even then, when I was presented with the "estimated cost" that substantially exceeded the price quoted on Kayak, Avis was only "estimating" 80 miles @ $0.30/mile when the rental agreement clearly stated that the car would be returned at a location >300 miles away! Very deceptive on both Kayak and Avis' parts! Thankfully, I had the option of driving my own vehicle and the reservation was cancelled.10.0 Wonderful
