AVIS Car Rental at Tenerife Los Rodeos Airport

Tenerife North Airport handles just over four million passengers per year, and is found nearby Santa Cruz, the capital city of Tenerife island. The airport is also located in the municipality of San Cristóbal de la Laguna, and is well connected to other areas on the island by the TF-5 and TF-1 motorways. Tenerife is the largest of Spain's Canary Islands, and has two international airports. The other airport is Tenerife South, located at the far end of the island. Local and international visitors flock to Tenerife every summer to enjoy the resorts, beaches and other attractions, and often rent a car from Tenerife North Airport for transportation. Avis offers their services from the airport, along with a number of other international and local car rental companies. However, Avis is often chosen for their competitive rental rates, and wide range of vehicles for hire.

Avis is just one of a number of car rental companies at North Tenerife Airport.

Avis is an international car hire company favoured by many customers for their excellent services. They have many years of experience and thousands of rental locations across the globe. Although cars for hire are usually available at Tenerife North Airport, it is recommended to reserve your car in advance, especially during the busier summer months of the island. Avis offers a website from where all vehicles arrangements can be made, at www.avis.com, which also has plenty of information regarding their rental terms and conditions. Customers should also hire any additional equipment required for their vehicle as early as possible, as these items are offered on a "first come, first served" basis, and may not be available when you arrive at the airport. Avis hires car seats for babies and young children, and satellite navigation systems. At Tenerife Airport, hand controls for disabled drivers may be available as well, and do not come with additional costs. Hand controls must be booked in advance.

At this Avis rental location, the primary renter, or additional drivers, should meet the minimum age requirement of 23. However, for the following categories, all renters must be 25 years of age or older: L (Luxury), M (Full Size Van), O (Premium Van), N (Standard Size Van) and P (Minivan). A young drivers fee will be applicable to those between the ages of 23 and 25, a standard procedure followed by all major car hire companies. This means that younger drivers will pay a higher rental rate than usual. The extra cost is applicable per day of rental, and per underage driver listed on the rental agreement, up until a maximum of ten rental days.

Foreign visitors driving in Spain will need an International Driving Permit as well as their national driving license from their country of residence. The IDP document is required by Spanish Law, and should be carried at all times. Depending on the country in which the renter resides, Avis may or may not require an IDP. National licenses issued in the European Union are generally accepted, if they are printed in a Roman alphabet, excluding licenses from Greece, which are accepted by Avis. Renters from the United Kingdom must have both parts of their license available. The primary renter at Avis can organize vehicle insurance such as Theft Protection and Collision Damage Waiver. Insurance is optional, but if required, can be purchased locally from Avis in order to reduce, or even remove, the insurance excess. Avis, at Tenerife North Airport, accepts the following major credit cards: American Express, Diners Club, Mastercard/Eurocard, Visa and their Avis Charge Cards.

A one way hire may also be permitted by Avis, and this option is useful for customers who will not be returning to Tenerife North Airport. For example, a customer with a return flight from Tenerife South Airport can collect their rented car from Tenerife North, use it for the rental period agreed upon, and then return it to Avis rental location at Tenerife South. One way hires may also be returned to downtown locations in other towns and cities on the island.

Customers arriving Avis Tenerife North have a wide range of vehicles from which to choose, and will definitely find their ideal car for holiday or business purposes. The smaller cars from Avis are rented from the Mini, Economy and Compact categories, and may be similar to the Ford Ka Titanium, Seat Ibiza, Volkswagen Golf and Seat Leon 1.9. Although smaller cars, they are still said to seat up to five passengers, and generally have room for three small luggage items. They also have a manual transmission, and come with air conditioning. It is important for customers to choose a car that they are able to drive comfortably. Individuals who are used to driving an automatic vehicle should consider also renting a car of a similar kind, as a stick-shift, in this case, can be difficult to manage. The Volkswagen Golf in the Compact category can have an automatic transmission, as well as the Audi A6 and Mercedes E250 in the Fullsize and Luxury categories.

It is also wise to carefully consider the size of vehicle required for your holiday, as a car too small can be most uncomfortable. Intermediate vehicles are often chosen by larger families, similar to the Volkswagen Passat, or even wagon vehicles, such as the Volkswagen Passat Variant. The Volkswagen Touran 2.0 and Opel Zafira 1.9 seat five passengers, while the Seat Alhambra 2.0 and Chrysler Voyager are available for up to seven people. The larger Mercedes Vito is also hired by Avis, with room for nine.

Passengers arriving at Tenerife North Airport can contact Avis at this rental location for all further details. Their office hours are from 07:00 to 22:30, Monday to Sunday.
