Why pick up the car at Kutaisi Airport
Kutaisi International Airport (KUT) is about 20 km west of Kutaisi city centre, and low-cost flights often land here in the evening or around midnight, so a rental car collected at the airport saves a late taxi. It is a small airport with one terminal, near the village of Kopitnari.
There is no train to the airport. Buses to Kutaisi and other cities run around the flight times, not all day. After a late arrival, a taxi is often the only option. With a rental car you leave the terminal and drive straight to your accommodation. The next morning you can start your trip without a transfer.
Meeting point and handover
The local rental companies on this page usually have no desk in the terminal. They meet you in person. After passport control and baggage claim, go to the arrivals hall. A representative waits there with a sign showing your name or booking number. Then you walk together to the car park in front of the terminal, where you check the car and sign the contract.
Before you fly, save the supplier’s phone number or messenger contact from your booking. Send a message when you land, so the representative knows you are on your way. Keep your passport and driving licence at hand for the handover.
Night and early-morning flights
A handover late at night or before dawn is normal at Kutaisi Airport. Add your flight number when you book. The supplier uses it to follow delays, so a late landing does not mean a missed meeting. Some suppliers charge an out-of-hours fee for handovers at night. Check the offer terms for this fee before you book.
After a night arrival, do not start a long mountain drive at once. Stay the first night in Kutaisi or near the airport, and drive to Svaneti or another mountain area in daylight. Many mountain roads have no street lights, and after a flight you are tired. For an early flight home, agree the return time with the supplier in advance.
What to check before you drive off
Before you drive off, walk around the car with the representative and check the damage, the fuel and mileage, the extras you booked, the breakdown contact and any route permissions. It is easier to fix a problem in the car park than later on the road.
- Damage — walk around the car with the representative. Photograph every scratch, dent and chip, and make sure they are in the contract.
- Fuel and mileage — compare the fuel level and the odometer with the contract. Ask how full the tank must be at return.
- Extras — check that the child seat, winter tyres or snow chains you booked are in the car.
- Contact — ask for a phone number for breakdowns and accidents.
- Route permissions — if you plan to drive beyond Mestia, make sure the car has the designated travel option; for a trip to Armenia, check the cross-border conditions in the car's listing.
The first drive from Kutaisi Airport
The airport lies in the lowlands, so the first part of every route is flat and easy, even at night. Times below are approximate and depend on traffic and season.
- Kutaisi city centre — about 30 minutes, east on the main road.
- Martvili Canyon — about 45 km, about 1 hour; a good first stop if you are heading to Samegrelo.
- Batumi and the Black Sea coast — about 130 km, 2–2.5 hours on the main highway.
- Mestia (Svaneti) — via Zugdidi. The last part climbs into the mountains.
- Tbilisi — about 250 km, about 4 hours on the east–west highway.
If you are going to the mountains between late autumn and spring, book winter tyres. For parking in Kutaisi, day trips to the caves and canyons, the roads beyond Mestia and local driving rules, see car rental in Kutaisi.
Fly into Kutaisi, fly out of Tbilisi
You can pick up the car in Kutaisi, return it in Tbilisi and fly home from Tbilisi Airport, without driving back to the start. Many travellers do this a week or more after landing, driving east across the country. A typical route: the canyons, Batumi or Svaneti first, then east to Tbilisi.
In today’s listings, 1,489 cars can be picked up in Kutaisi and returned in Tbilisi, from $28 a day. Any drop-off fee is shown in the offer, so you can compare the total with a round trip. Tell the supplier which airport you will return to when you book. If you fly home from Kutaisi, plan a loop that ends near the airport, for example along the coast from Batumi.

Alysha Owen, UK · Aug 2026 · TrustpilotFrequently asked questions
Can I pay in cash or by debit card?
Yes. Cash at pick-up is accepted for 100% of the cars listed at Kutaisi Airport, and 594 cars (39%) also take card payment. About 15–20% of the rental price is paid online when you book; the balance is paid at pickup.
Can I rent a car at Kutaisi Airport without a deposit?
Yes: 1,289 of the cars listed at Kutaisi Airport (84%) need no deposit, from $26.40 a day. Use the “No deposit” filter in the search. For the other cars the deposit amount is shown on each offer before you book.
Is there car rental at Kutaisi Airport?
Yes. Local rental companies hand over cars at the airport, and the offers on this page are for pick-up there. You meet a representative in person instead of going to a desk. If you stay in Kutaisi first, you can also collect the car in the city or have it delivered.
Where do I meet the rental company at Kutaisi Airport?
In the arrivals hall, after passport control and baggage claim. The representative holds a sign with your name or booking number. Send a message to the supplier when you land, so they know you are on your way. The handover takes place in the car park.
Can I pick up the car after a late or night flight?
Yes. Night handovers are normal at Kutaisi Airport, because many low-cost flights land late. Add your flight number when you book, so the supplier can follow any delay. Some suppliers charge an out-of-hours fee; check the offer terms before you book.
How do I get from Kutaisi Airport to the city without a car?
There is no train. Taxis wait at the terminal. After a late arrival, a taxi is often the only option.
What should I check before I drive off from the airport?
Walk around the car with the representative and photograph any damage. Compare the fuel level and the odometer with the contract. Check that the extras you booked, such as a child seat or winter tyres, are in the car. Ask for a phone number for breakdowns.
Can I drive from Kutaisi Airport straight to Batumi or Mestia?
Yes. Batumi is an easy drive on the main highway. Mestia is a long drive via Zugdidi, and the last part climbs into the mountains. After a night arrival, stay in Kutaisi first and drive to Mestia in daylight. The road beyond Mestia needs a car with the designated travel option.
Can I return the car in Tbilisi or Batumi?
Yes. One-way rentals from Kutaisi to Tbilisi and Batumi are common, so you can fly in to Kutaisi and fly home from another city. Any drop-off fee is shown in the offer before you book. Tell the supplier your return airport or address when you book.
Do I need winter tyres if I land in winter?
Not for the lowland roads to Kutaisi and Batumi in normal weather. For Svaneti and other mountain areas between late autumn and spring, book winter tyres and take snow chains. Both can be added as extras. Check road conditions before you go, because heavy snow can close mountain roads.
