Frequently Asked Questions

Can I pick-up/rentun rental car at Porto Santo Airport outside normal hours of operation?

Yes, a few car rental companies serving Porto Santo Airport allow vehicle collection and return outside office hours upon request. However, an out of hours fee (paid locally at the desk) will be applicable for the provision of this service. In most cases, it is mandatory to provide the flight number and mobile phone number at the time of booking for out of hours pick-up at the airport.

Do I need to provide flight number in advance for the car hire pickup at Porto Santo Airport?

Providing the flight number at the time of reservation would help the rental company track the flight in case of any delay and schedule the pick-up accordingly. In such cases, where you do not know your flight number when making a reservation, you can notify the supplier at least 72 hours before the pick-up date as well.

Which is the best fuel policy for renting a car at Porto Santo Airport?

Although the car rental companies servicing Porto Santo Airport offer a range of fuel policies, including ‘full to full’ and ‘same to same’, it is highly recommended to opt for the latter. A ‘full to full’ fuel policy is the most transparent and cost-effective option, as it ensures you only pay for the fuel you consume and avoids the need to refuel at the rental company’s office, where you might be charged higher rates than local fuel prices. We recommend carefully comparing the fuel policies for multiple companies through us to select the most suitable option for your journey.

Are electric or hybrid cars available for hire at Porto Santo Airport?

Yes, plenty of energy-efficient electric and hybrid vehicles can be hired for pickup at Porto Santo Airport. When searching for suitable deals, you can use the ‘Fuel Type’ filter to refine the search results to your liking and confirm booking for an ideal car.
