Sixt SE and its U.S. Franchise Unit (Sixt Franchise USA, LLC) announce the opening of new branches to service Boston Logan International Airport and Charleston International Airport.

These two airport branches continue Sixt’s airport network in the United States.

"The franchise opening in Boston greatly enhances our presence in New England and the Northeast U.S., and travelers flying into Boston will enjoy renting premium vehicles like a BMW 328i or BMW 528i from Sixt," said Craig Olson, executive vice president of Sixt’s North America Franchise Development. "The franchise opening in Charleston further strengthens the Sixt network in the Carolinas and the Southeast U.S."
