Let’s try again

Overall I am happy with the car and the handling process. We opted for the no worries contract. That’s expensive and also useful. Customer service over mail and telephone were unsatisfactory. We tried to change the airport where the car was to be returned. There was no attention, no interest and no care in helping us out. In the end we were forced to return the car we rented for 12 days in Catania and rent another one for a day for a 3 hour drive to Palermo. Plus having to line up again in a car & driver registration process on a travel day.

After writing this review I received a highly reflective response from Locauto, reminding me of the very challenging times we all went through during the many travel disruptions at Catania airport resulting from the week long eruption of Etna. And inviting me to give them a chance to offer me a five star car rental experience in future. Highly appreciated, and I will certainly give that a chance!

Dear Gerhard,thank you for sharing your feedback. We are truly sorry for your experience and fully understand how frustrating and stressful this situation was for you. Our goal is always to accommodate our customers' needs whenever possible.

Unfortunately, the unexpected disruption caused by the Etna eruption persisted longer than anticipated, creating extraordinary operational challenges and severe limitations across our fleet management. That being said, we deeply regret the inconvenience this caused during your journey.

We will certainly use your comments to review our communication and improve our service. We truly hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for a seamless 5-star experience.

Locauto Group - Catania Aeroporto:Outstanding experience – Fast, spotless, and professional service!

I rented a car for my trip, and the overall experience exceeded my expectations in every way.
Speed: The pick-up and drop-off processes were amazingly fast. No unnecessary delays or tedious paperwork—I had the keys in my hand and was ready to hit the road within minutes.
Cleanliness: The vehicle was in pristine condition. Spotlessly clean inside and out, smelling fresh, and clearly sanitized, which immediately gave me full peace of mind.
Customer Service: The staff was friendly, polite, and exceptionally helpful. They answered all my questions with a smile, offered useful driving tips, and went out of their way to ensure a smooth rental.
I will definitely choose them again for my next trip. Highly recommended!

Hello

Hello! Your company issued me an invoice for 212 euros for damage. At the same time:
1. I had full insurance.
2. The employee who accepted the car confirmed that there were no problems.
3. You didn’t specify what kind of damage this is.
I disagree with this and demand a refund.

Dear Aleksei,thank you for reaching out, and we are truly sorry for this experience. We completely understand how frustrating it is to receive an unexpected damage charge, especially when you had full coverage and a smooth return experience.

Please contact our Customer Care team directly via our support portal: https://portale.locautorent.com/websitecs/cs-home.aspx

Our specialized team will be able to provide you with the full damage documentation, inspect the specifics of your coverage, and address any questions or disputes regarding the refund. We appreciate your patience while we help you resolve this matter.

Great customer service

Great customer service. The only car rental that was able to help me out -at an agreeable price- at Catania airport late night, after having been let down by another car rental. Valentina was friendly and helpful.

Excellent service from the staff at Lovauto; at the desk, picking up the car and also at drop off. Only gripe is with the number of alarms that sounded in the car constantly; car design rather than Locauto but it certainly made the drive more stressful!

Dear James,Thank you so much for the kind words about our team! We are thrilled to hear that you received excellent service from our staff at every stage of your trip, from the front desk to pickup and drop-off.

We completely understand your frustration regarding the continuous warning alarms. Modern vehicle safety systems and driver assistance features—such as lane assist and speed warnings—are set directly by the manufacturer and can definitely feel overwhelming when they beep constantly!

We appreciate your understanding that this is a car design factor, and we hope to welcome you back soon for another smooth rental experience!

Alessio helped us very much for thr car return. He immediatley helped the second we got in and made the process as best as possible. The car was amazing for my wife 5 year old son and myself. We drove around the whole Sicily without any issues. Check in was also great. Thank you for the best time here in Sicily

Helpful Locauto

Our flight was redirected to a different airport but Locauto dealt with this smoothly. Their phone line was promptly answered each time i called and the desk at Catania airport was open until midnight. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Nonostante il dirottamento del volo da Catania a Trapani, Locauto ha gestito la situazione con grande professionalità. La loro linea telefonica è stata sempre disponibile e l’ufficio presso l’aeroporto di Catania è rimasto aperto fino a mezzanotte. Il personale Locauto si è dimostrato gentile e disponibile ad aiutare.

LEVARGING OF CANCELLED FLIGHTS

GREAT SERIVICE, HOW EVER WE NEEDED TO HIRE A CAR DUE TO THE VOLCANOE CANCLEING FLIGHTS AND THE COST OF THE HIRE CAR WAS OVER 500 EUROS FOR 12 HOURS. I THINK LEVERAGING OFF A TIME LIKE THIS IS TAKING ADVATAGE OF YOUR CUSTOMERS. DUE TO THIS I WOULD NOT BE USING THIS CAR RENTAL AGAIN. HOWEVER HAVING A VEHCILE AVLAIBLE SOLVED THE ISSUE.;

Hello Wolfe, thank you for sharing your experience with Locauto. We are sorry to hear that the Mout Etna affected your vacation and we are glad we could help you. We experienced an incredible amout of cancelations and last minute requests which we were not prepared for and we tried our best to assist everybody.
Last-minute rentals during Peak Season are unfortunately subject to higher rates, we truly appreciate your understanding and hope to see you again soon.
