At Dubrovnik Airport, typical deposits range from $924 with Green Motion to $5,772 with Budget, and only 3 of the 23 desks take a debit card. The other 20 desks require a credit card in the main driver's name. Use the debit card filter before comparing quotes so you only see cars you can pick up. Optional desk extras like child seats or extra drivers show their prices under each car.
If you bring your own child seat, check your airline's rules first: most carry one free, some charge.
