Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Palm Beach Intl. Airport (PBI)?
Yes, and you won't be short on choice. Once you arrive at Palm Beach Intl. Airport (PBI), make your way to the rental car centre at baggage claim on Level One. Here you can select from reputable companies like Payless, Hertz and Enterprise. If you're after more options, see what's available with Dollar and Budget.
What happens if I need to cancel my Wellington car reservation?
When you cancel at least six hours in advance of collecting the car, the majority of reservations offer a refund. However, not every one is eligible for this, so it's important to familiarise yourself with the rental agreement. Check your itinerary for the details or head to our Customer Service Portal for more information.
What types of cars can I rent in Wellington?
Ease of parking, affordability and superb mileage are just some of the reasons compact cars are the preference in Wellington. Their small size makes them perfect for city driving. They're a good fit for solo travellers, couples or road-trippers on a budget. Of course, how you cruise around is your call! Go even smaller with a mini or economy, or give yourself more room with a full-size or an intermediate. Looking for luxury? You'll like our premium options.

What do you need to rent a car in Wellington?

Where can I find a Wellington car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car rental companies that are in Wellington. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, take note that additional fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before picking up the keys to your vehicle.
