Two small cars at 600 pesos each? Travel 3 and 3?

Thanks for all the suggestions. Did try a few with no luck. Cristobal was helpful but did not have a car that could seat 6. That seems to be the biggest problem here and in other countries south of the US.

We rented a car last week from Thrifty at the ZIH Airport with a recommendation from a young lady at World Mark. It's low season but we got a deal that was hard to believe - 500 Pesos a day with ALL insurance included. They put a hold on my credit until we returned the car and then we paid with a debit card (those can't be charged again without the card being present). Contact Cristobal +52 1 755 111 0387 via WhatsApp. You can mention Lina and she's get some recognition or the Fishers. He treated us right - and I hate the rental car process! You will be renting in high season but Cristobal is sharing a counter with 5 other agencies. He likes to make a deal.

Good experience with EuroCar. Good with Hertz until employee stole my credit card number-too a long time to straighten it out but OK in the end.

I have not used them in Zih, but I have used them in Las Vegas once. Not a great experience. Dont remember the details as it was nourish years ago, but I won't rent from them again.

I have not, but I have used Eurocar for a large SUV rental with third row seating.

This was over one year ago and Ruben was the mananger at the time and no BS with the rental. Not sure if he is still there but used him for several years on a recommendation from someone else on the board.

Worth a shot if firefly does not work out.

We are trying to rent a 6 passenger car for a few days in January. Firefly offers such a car but they are not on Rob's list. I have heard from Raul, the manager (formerly recommended by someone on this site as a great provider at Alamo) who is now the manager of Firefly Car Rental at ZIH. Has anyone used this company before?
