Top tips for renting a car at Ponta Delgada Nordela airport
- Nothing is more reassuring than the standards that come with international car rental services when you need a means of transfer from Ponta Delgada Nordela (PDL) Airport. Imagine the comfort of having a car waiting outside the airport terminal. Through KAYAK, you’ll find a plethora of models to suit your needs. Make sure you get behind the wheel of your dream car. A small car rental at Ponta Delgada Nordela Airport is an excellent option for adventuring the Azores alone. At the same time, a minivan is more suitable for traveling with your entire family or a group of friends. Though a shuttle bus at the airport can take you to Ponta Delgada’s city center, you will have to wait in line because the buses run on specific schedules (about every 40min). Again, they have to stop at designated bus stops, so the journey takes longer. But car rentals are the only guarantee to save time no matter where you are going after landing at PDL Airport.
- When collecting keys for car rental at Ponta Delgada Nordela Airport, present your national identity card, credit card in your name, a valid driver’s license, and prepaid voucher. Other requirements are explained in the booking confirmation email. Before driving a hired vehicle, always check for damages and write them down on the agreement form. Understand the type of fuel the car uses and what to do in case of damage. It is crucial to know where to get spare tires and an emergency toolbox. Remember that not all gas stations take credit cards, so it pays to carry some cash in euros.
- When the rental period is over, know where to drop off the car. Most probably, the return area is the exact pickup location at Ponta Delgada Nordela Airport. The parking lot is on the right-hand side, directly outside the terminal. Hand over the keys to the attendants so they can inspect the vehicle for damages. This process should take no more than 15min, and when done, complete your paperwork and leave it at the rental booth.
- The main highway connecting PDL Airport to Ponta Delgada is in good shape, and traffic jams are rare around this route. It starts to get busy when you reach Sao Jose, Sao Sebastiao, and Sao Pedro because they are the most populated civil parishes. Expect some street traffic in the morning, though not severe. You will be keeping right while driving. Pay toll tickets to the issuing officer on site.

They state up front that there is a 10 euro fee for cars returned with extremely dirty interior. I returned a car with some dirt on the driver floor mat, nothing anywhere else. That qualified as extremely dirty.10.0 Wonderful

Cons:
It was not possible to rent a car through them. Because they confirmed that the car booked is not possible to rent with debit card. Then they ensured that they have other cars that can be rented with debit card, but when we asked what offers they have, they did not respond. Whereas we easily rented a car through ANZ with a debit card.10.0 Wonderful

Cons:
It wasn’t clear to me that the pickup/drop off are not at the airport and you have to get a minibus to take you there. Also they didn’t come to meet me at the allotted time - they came an hour later. It ended up taking two hours to hire a car - not good enough when I only hired for three days.Angrauto
