Results on the cheap alicante car rental test:

Our first choice for a cheap alicante car rental would be split between the local specialized Alicante car rental companies and auto-europe.com . They are cheap, the online booking procedure is simple and the website is really fast. Second choice would be travelselect.com as it seemed to me they do go for a local car rental host. priceline.co.uk , opodo.co.uk and Lunn Poly book cars using holiday autos which is a very established car rental company.

Quick tips on car rental

Up until last year, we rented a car at Alicante airport every summer during our vacation. I guess it is pretty much the same all around Europe on how Alicante car rental works. So allow me not to go into it.

But, I found some special issues which you might consider on your next car rental in Alicante:

  • Air Condition
    Starting from April until November temperatures can be up to 40 C. Even now (in March) we already had days with 28 C. Needless to say that either air condition or opening the window manually are the two choices you have. (I go for the first option :-)
  • Extra Driver
    It doesn't matter if you booked an extra driver at home - make sure at the car rental desk that they got the extra driver registered. If you and your partner want to drive the car - it must be in the papers you sign at the airport - (it does not matter what you might have ordered at your travel agency).

My wife and I had exactly this problem some years ago. So - please double check, if the extra driver is in the paper.

  • Baby/Children Seat
    If you are traveling with a baby or child (we did over many years) you should really consider bringing your baby/child-seat with you. Sure, you can rental them with your car - but we tried this twice - and always got just dirty and insecure seats. We are certainly not the only one, because whenever I wait for my luggage at the airport I see people carrying there baby seats.     So don't care if it means a little bit of hassle - for your children's safety it is worth it!
  • Booking at Home
    Please make sure you book your car via your travel agency or via an internet travel agent. It is cheaper and easier, as particularly during summer season car rental companies are heavily booked. Do your alicante car rental from home - before you travel to Alicante.

    The following car rental companies have permanent Alicante car rental offices at the airport:
