Almost everything here. Book early, keep checking, rebook if it drops.

What this means for your booking

  • The cheapest sticker is usually not the cheapest car. With 90% of suppliers charging about €111 for a second driver, two cars advertised a few euro apart can be €111 apart by the time you drive away. We put that fee into every price the moment you say you need one.
  • Check your card limit before you travel. The typical hold here is €900 on the main driver's card. It is a pre-authorisation rather than a charge, but it has to fit.
  • A month is not four times a week. The median week here is €193 and the median month €956 — worse per day, which is why back-to-back rentals often beat one long booking on hires of 40 days or more.
  • Airport or town desk? We have not measured which is cheaper yet, so we won't guess. We are measuring it now and will publish the numbers. See every pick-up point here.

Getting to the car

If you land late. 86% of the suppliers we priced shut by 22:00, and the typical desk closes at 21:45. A delayed flight is the difference between collecting your car and paying for a night you did not plan. Measured across 396 offers that publish their desk hours; a supplier that does not publish them is not counted as open.

Not every supplier here hands you the keys in the terminal. Across 4 searches, this is how collection splits:

  • In terminal 26%
  • Meet & Greet 25%
  • Outside of terminal 23%
  • Free shuttle service 22%
  • Car rental center 5%

28 suppliers appeared here across our searches, at several separate pick-up points. See which is nearest you and what each costs.

The fine print, measured

These conditions vary more between airports than most people expect. We measure each of them everywhere we sweep: deposits · debit cards · second-driver fees · desk hours.

78%
Same to same

Return it with the level you got. Cheaper than full-to-empty deals, but check the gauge at pick-up and photograph it.

92%
unlimited mileage

Check the cap before you book a long drive — the supplier sets the excess rate and we cannot see it.

0%
allow crossing a border

Well short of universal — filter for it if you plan to drive out of the country.

25%
accept a debit card

More flexible than most markets, but still check before you travel.

Deposit banding, as the suppliers classify it themselves: average deposit 50% · low deposit 20% · high deposit 11% · deposit-free option available 8% · low deposit option available 5% · no deposit or card required at pick-up 4% · no deposit 2%.

What each supplier actually costs here

28 suppliers appeared in our searches. These are the ones you are most likely to be offered — chosen by how often they came up, then ordered by what they really cost, which is rarely the same order as the advertised price.

Prices are for a one-week hire. Mixing rental lengths would make the column meaningless — a fee charged once per rental is a very different share of a week than of a month — so this table is built from week-long searches only.

Deposits vary far more than prices. GreenMotion holds €1,240 on the main driver's card against Keddy's €234. It is released after you return the car, but it has to fit.

"With 2nd driver" is the advertised rental plus that supplier's additional-driver fee — our definition of the total, and the only one we rank on. Full cover is quoted separately and never added in: many travellers hold annual excess insurance or rely on a card, and folding in an assumed purchase is precisely the trick this site exists to expose. Medians across 4 searches; a supplier that does not publish a fee is not counted as free. How we measure this.

How these numbers were measured

We search this market on a schedule through DiscoverCars, at several rental lengths, and keep what came back. Each figure above is the median across 4 searches, not a single snapshot and not an estimate.

  • Second-driver share — the percentage of priced offers whose supplier charges a fee for an additional driver. Offers that do not publish a fee are excluded from the share rather than counted as free.
  • Typical fee — the median fee for the whole rental, not per day. One fee per rental, however many drivers.
  • Deposit — the median amount the supplier pre-authorises on the main driver's card at the counter. It is released after you return the car.
  • Cancel free — the share of offers that can be cancelled without charge.

Car hire is priced dynamically and these are typical values, not quotes. Availability and price are confirmed on DiscoverCars before you pay. We publish the aggregates; the underlying records stay ours.

Measured from 4 searches of this market between 6 October 2026 and 7 October 2026. Car hire is priced dynamically: these are typical values, not quotes, and the only way to know your price is to search your dates. Prices and availability come from DiscoverCars and are confirmed there before you pay.
