Wellington Airport operates a single terminal and offers a range of on-site car rental brands to select from. See below for clear instructions on how to find Wellington Airport’s car hire desks and where to pick up your rental car.
Wellington Airport has a single passenger terminal. As the airport only has one terminal, there is no need to worry about getting between terminals.
The on-airport car desks are located on the ground floor inside the terminal, next to the baggage carousel.
The on-airport hire cars are parked just outside the terminal in the rental car park. This is just a short walking distance from the car rental desks.
Hopefully the car rental company has left a sign with instructions or a contact number. In this situation, use the number they have provided and let them know that you have arrived or follow the directions out to the car park where a rental attendant will help you.
If there is no sign, check your booking confirmation email for a contact phone number.
If you still have no luck finding assistance, contact us. Don’t be alarmed. It’s not unusual to see unmanned desks, and rest assured there’s usually someone who can help out in the car park where the rental cars are located.
If you booked with an off-airport provider, you’ll need to catch a shuttle to the car rental provider’s premises near the airport.
To return your on-airport hire car, park in the rental car park area at Wellington Airport — it is just outside the terminal. Return your keys to the desk, and if the desk is unattended, or for after-hours returns, place the keys in the drop box located at the counter.
For Apex you will need to return the vehicle to the depot located at 363 Broadway, Miramar. Apex will arrange your transfer to the terminal.
For Go Rentals, return the vehicle to the depot located at 357 Broadway, Miramar. A courtesy shuttle service will take you directly to the designated drop-off point close to the terminal.
