Abstract: Let $Bbbk$ be any field of characteristic zero, $X$ be a cubic surface in $mathbb{P}_{Bbbk}^3$ and $G$ be a group acting on $X$. We show that if $X(Bbbk)evarnothing$ and $G$ is not trivial and not a group of order $3$ acting in a special way then the quotient surface $X/G$ is rational over $Bbbk$. For the group $G$ of order $3$ we construct examples of both rational and nonrational quotients of both rational and nonrational $G$-minimal cubic surfaces over $Bbbk$.
