Top tips for hiring a car at Donegal Airport

  • Getting a car rental at Donegal Airport is a good idea to explore the Irish town and surrounding areas. You don’t have to deal with the hassle of using public transport, especially if you have more luggage. Renting a car at the airport also eliminates the need to visit various downtown locations looking for a car rental. From the airport, you can drive at your own pace to your preferred destination.
  • Collecting a vehicle from any car rental at Donegal Airport is simple. Different providers are available onsite. Upon arrival, head straight to the car rental desks with the mandatory rental documents. A staff member from your car rental agency will welcome you and verify all your documents to confirm if you are eligible to rent a car. If successful, you’ll sign a rental contract and receive your copy with the car keys. The staff will escort or guide you to the pickup locations outside the Terminal. Inspect the car to confirm if it’s in the right technical state before starting your journey.
  • You’ll have an easy time returning the vehicle to your Donegal Airport car rental. You can drive to the airport and park it in the initial pickup spot or the drop-off location listed in your rental agreement. Contact your provider if there is no drop-off location listed in your rental contract. After parking the car in the right spot, collect all your belongings and inspect it for dents or other damages to avoid additional charges. If everything is okay, proceed to the car rental center to complete the rental process. Return the car within the agreed time to avoid a late return fee.
  • Donegal Airport can get busy between May and September, when most tourists flock there. Getting or returning a vehicle from any Donegal Airport car rental can be challenging due to an influx of renters in the car rental center. You may also encounter long queues at the car rental section on weekends, holidays, and when the town hosts popular festivals like Earagail Arts Festival, Ardara Bluegrass Festival, and East Donegal Family History Festival.
