If you don't want to queue or deal with the counter staff and avoid insurance offers, Alamo has a row of self-service machines in the rental lobby. Simply input your reservation number, driver's license number, swipe your credit card for the deposit, select 'no' for the other options, and the rental document will be printed out.

The Los Angeles airport branch is generally acceptable. Be prepared to use a Japanese car as a replacement if the Grand Cherokee is frequently unavailable.

Very convenient, self-service car pickup available, and plenty of gas stations around.

Direct and straightforward, got the car immediately without any upselling. It might be because I had all the documents printed out. I recommend having everything ready before going.

Reserved a mid-to-large SUV Jeep Grand Cherokee or similar, but only JEPP Compass and FORD EDGE (rental car introduction says similar level should be Explorer) were available. Downgraded without price reduction, lots of upselling, such as paying for upgrades, GPS, insurance, etc.
