Auckland Airport Car Rental

All The big expensive rental car companies like Hertz, Avis, Budget and Europcar have representatives at the Auckland International Airport. They provide excellent service ...

BUT there is a much cheaper alternative that is just as convenient. Scotties Rent A Car offer a personal pick up service.

We will be waiting for you as you exit the Customs Hall with a sign with your name on it - just like the celebrities get! After a quick sign up you are on your way. No waiting in the queue.

Drop off is even easier. Our base is 2 minutes up the road and our agent usually jumps in the car and wisks you straight to the terminal door. No need to lug your bags across the carparks in the rain.

Prebooking makes it even easier so we can track your flight and have your rental car waiting for you. This service is available with all vehicles from brand new to backpacker classes.

Scotties is the closest rental car facility to the Auckland Airport - it's true!

Scotties Rent A Car has announced the purchase of a new airport base that will become the closest ‘off-airport’ car rental facility to Auckland International Airport.

Company director Annie Scott said “It was imperative the company found a base close to the airport and with the new runway plans advancing it was extremely difficult finding the ideal location. With just a 3 minute drive to the terminal Scotties can provide travellers with the best service possible”.

The Auckland Airport company is a strong and expanding organisation with great vision and it is exciting to be so close.

Manukau City Council has stated they have huge plans for Ihumatao Road to become the “fruit bowl” and tourism trail for Auckland. A 400 bed hotel is planned and various other developments are awaiting consent including the historical Stonefields development.

Its going to be a very exciting place to be with all the developments planned and zoning changes have been completed.

Scotties is the NZ agency for Advantage Rent A Car which is the largest independant car rental company in the US.

Scotties targets the overseas tourism sector and markets in the USA, UK, Europe and AustraliaScott said “It was sad no New Zealand company was represented within the airport terminals and Scotties would be doing there best to break the overseas companies monopoly”.

At this stage the new facility is due to open in 2009.

Auckland Airport is located 20km (15 miles) due south of the city. There are no trains that service the airport and a taxi costs about $80 so it makes good sence to book your rental car for Auckland Airport before you come.
