Smith, vice president of global franchising at Enterprise. “Costa Rica, in particular, is an extremely popular tourism destination for our customers, making it a great starting point for extending the Enterprise brand into Latin America.”
Enterprise Rent-A-Car will serve customers at Daniel Oduber Quiros International Airport in Liberia and Juan Santamaria International Airport in San Jose, Costa Rica. Enterprise also will open a downtown office at Momentum Lindora Plaza in San Jose. All Costa Rica locations are now open and operational.
In Guatemala and Nicaragua, reservations made through Enterprise Rent-A-Car channels will be served by Drive Alliance partner National Car Rental at its current rental locations at La Aurora International Airport in Guatemala City, Guatemala, and Augusto Cesar Sandino International Airport in Managua, Nicaragua.
