Car Hire at Stansted Airport
Car rentals needn’t be just for travelling around your holiday destination. Did you know that rental cars can often work out cheaper and more reliable than public transport, especially if you are travelling in a group? The Stansted car hire providers are located a short distance from the arrivals terminal, with shuttle buses in operation should you have a bit too much luggage to walk far with!
Whilst it is possible to book car hire upon arrival, keep in mind that this can often be more expensive and you’ll probably have less choice when it comes to selecting your vehicle. At peak travel times, car hire can be limited and sometimes providers may not have any vehicles available. Therefore it is best you book your car hire in advance to ensure you get a car!
