WHY IT RATES: Tourists visiting Florida should ask their travel agents about renting a vehicle at the new Sixt Rent-a-Car location at Fort Myers International Airport.-Donald Wood, Breaking News Senior Writer.
At a ribbon-cutting ceremony led by the Greater Fort Myers Chamber of Commerce and the Fort Myers Beach Chamber of Commerce, Sixt officially opened for business at the Fort Myers International Airport in Florida.
This opening marks the rapidly-growing company's third grand opening this year.
Sixt Rent-a-Car, the world's premier affordable luxury car rental service with more than 2,000 locations in over 100 countries, is renowned around the world for its "Sixt Experience," meeting the unique needs of each customer with world-class service. In the United States since just 2011, the company is now the fifth-largest provider in the US, with 52 locations in 13 states.
"Fort Myers is one of America's most beloved Spring Training destinations, baseball fans from all over the world take this annual pilgrimage very seriously. This year-with this great new location-we're offering fans something they haven't had before, access to the same luxury cars the players are driving, at prices the rest of us can afford," said Daniel Florence, Chief Operating Officer of Sixt USA. "We're growing and opening new locations in the U.S. as fast as we can. Americans are falling in love with Sixt. They love our cars, our prices, the first-class service, and our do-whatever-it-takes attitude to earn their business. Thank you, Fort Myers, we look forward to serving you."
Thus far in 2018, Sixt has opened a new location at the San Antonio International Airport, moved into an upgraded facility at the Tampa International Airport and opened a new location at the Fort Myers International Airport. In 2017, Sixt unveiled a newly-expanded offering at its flagship space in the Miami International Airport and at its Seattle-Tacoma International Airport location, launched a new location at the San Diego International Airport and moved into its new North American corporate headquarters in Ft. Lauderdale.
As the fifth-largest car rental company in the U.S. after just seven years, Sixt's success story continues to unfold month-after-month. The company has grown to over 750 employees and serves more than 52 rental locations located in California, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Washington, Texas, Connecticut, New Jersey, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Arizona and Massachusetts.
