Oct. 3, 2007 - Whats New at McCarren Airport

Car Rental Booth no longer at Airport

While in the middle of baggage claim there used to be all the car companies where you could get your paperwork out of the way before going to get your car. Then you would step out door ten and catch your favorite shuttle. Alamo, Hertz, Enterprise, Avis and all the rest. This is no longer the case. Gone are those areas and in their place is construction. They are doubling the size of the baggage claims where your bag come up. As Las Vegas becomes more of a travel destination and more flights come in, the claims can not longer hold all the bags.

SO where are those booths now? You will still go out door ten and cross to the same area, but instead of all those brightly colored buses you will find one big white bus with the name McCarren Rental Car Center on it. There you will be taken to a new facility that houses all of the companies.

Is this more efficient? I have heard the lines at time in the new building can be long. There is no longer 2 places to register but the new baggage claims will be nice.

So just remember after you get you bags. Proceed out door number 10 and get on the shiny new buses and get your car at the new building.
