The fact that most large international airports, worldwide, have absolutely huge car rental operations on site, along with partnerships with airlines, hotels and such, to me suggests something different.

The vast major of rental locations are far from airports and there’s vastly more people leaving using public transportation/Uber/someone picking them up at every airport I’ve been to.

So sure many people use rentals at airports, but the overall business model looks very different.
