Frequently Asked Questions about Car Rental at Crete, Heraklion Airport

It’s simple: choose your destination and the pick-up date. Click on 'Check prices and availability now'. Finally, select the type of vehicle you want to rent and click 'Book'.

You will find all the fuel policy information in Heraklion in the terms and conditions of each offer and in your voucher. With the full/full option you will collect the car with a full tank and you will have to return it full. Therefore, you will only pay for the fuel you use.

The voucher is the confirmation of your booking. It contains your booking number and all the information you will need to pick up your car.

Please note you will need to bring your voucher to the pick up office to be able to collect your car. We suggest you print it out to speed up the pick up process.

You can extend the contract as long as the rental company allows extensions and has availability for the additional days, although currently very few companies allow contract extensions. Please note that in order to extend the rental contract, you will need to go to the office where you picked up the vehicle to sign the extension. If you do not go to the office to sign, the vehicle insurance may become invalid, and the company may penalize you for not signing the extension on time.

The details of additional drivers are provided directly at the office when picking up the vehicle.

For most offers on our website you will be required to leave a security deposit when you collect the car. As long as you bring the car back undamaged at the end of the rental, the money will be unblocked / returned.

Yes, if you are planning on driving long distances, you can use the filters to the left of the car list page to see prices for rentals with unlimited mileage.

If you want to return the vehicle to a different office than the one it was collected from you need to choose the ‘one way’ option when making your booking. To do this you need to unclick the ‘Return the car to the same location’ box and select where you’d like to return the car. Our search engine will automatically inform you if the route you have chosen is possible. The hire company normally charges a ‘one-way’ fee for returning the car to a different office. If this is the case, it is explained in the conditions before booking and again on the rental voucher.

In most cases the main driver needs a credit card in order to rent a car. Sometimes it is also possible to pay with a debit card. In this case you should contact us and we will try to find a solution.
