Queued at the airport counter for about 5–6 minutes, they needed the driver’s license and the little registration booklet, but overall the process was pretty quick. The actual car pickup was at another spot: the airport parking lot (same place for drop-off). The original car I booked wasn’t ready, so they switched me to a same-class Citroën. At first I thought the car was just so-so, but after driving it… wow, it felt like a luxury ride (probably because most cars I saw on the road were quite old). When we drove out to the beach it had just rained and the road was super muddy, so the floor mats got a bit dirty, but the rental staff didn’t make a fuss and just took the car back—drop-off was really efficient. As long as the fuel gauge is the same at pickup and drop-off, you’re good. On the highway, the far left lane is for overtaking, and you should move back to the second lane once you’ve passed to avoid blocking others. We drove a total of 2,839 km and paid about 800 RMB in HGS tolls.
