Fairly straightforward considering the disruption to all of the car hire facilities. It would be nice if you could have a staff member in Terminal 3 for as long as possible. It would be difficult for anyone who is remotely disabled or elderly to hire a car at Sydney airport, the distance that they have to walk would a real disincentive. Having said that a least the Sixt car park is a lot closer than Avis.
