How does car hire pick-up work at Porto Airport?
Rental desks at OPO are on the public side of the terminal, before passport and security control, according to the airport operator's list of rental companies. Look for your own supplier's desk among them, and use the pick-up point in your offer if it names a different one.
Rental companies at Porto Airport: whose desk is whose
The operator's list gives each company at the airport its own hours and contact details. The suppliers behind our offers come from a wider search than that list, so a supplier that is not on it may hand cars over somewhere else: take the meeting point from your offer, not from the list.
Arriving close to midnight: desk hours and the way out
A late landing can miss the desks: none on the operator's list is open past midnight, and one closes earlier. Ask your supplier before you fly what happens to a collection after closing time, and plan the way into the city in case the answer is the next morning.
The same applies to returns outside desk hours. ECC-Net, the European Consumer Centres Network, advises photos and a video of the car before you leave it, because cars returned out of hours are as a rule inspected the next day, and a late return can cost a full extra day.
From OPO into Porto by metro, bus or taxi
You do not need the hire car to reach the centre. Metro do Porto Line E runs from the airport to Trindade and Estádio do Dragão, daily from early morning until after midnight, and the metro operator's timetable has the exact departures. STCP buses also serve the airport, and Visit Porto says taxis wait right outside the arrivals terminal.
Ribeira's access zone and the road up the Douro are dealt with on car hire in Porto.
Tolls on the roads out of the airport
Before you drive off, ask whether the car has a toll device and how its charges reach you. Some Portuguese motorways have no toll booths and charge electronically, and Infraestruturas de Portugal's toll map marks the A28 near the airport as one of them.
Turismo de Portugal says a rental company that fits a device rolls the toll cost into the rental price. Without one, you pay afterwards at a CTT post office or Payshop shop within the working-day deadline, and after it you risk a fine.
Prices and cancellation at Porto Airport
The 71 offers for pick-up at Porto Airport start at $10 a day, and the median is $101. Free cancellation comes with 48% of them. For the rest, the company's own terms decide, because Your Europe says car hire has no EU cooling-off right.
Airport or city: comparing the totals
Compare the total of an airport offer with the total of a city offer for the same dates. ECC-Net says airport fees, young-driver surcharges and the one-way fee must all be in the total price shown at booking, with optional extras itemised. The city side is on car hire in Porto.
Cover and deposit on OPO offers
Collision damage cover is listed on 100% of the offers, and full cover is an extra on 6 of them. Third-party liability cover valid across the EU has to be on every rental car and belongs in the rental price, while cover for damage, theft, vandalism, driver injury and legal assistance is optional. Work out what you would owe after an accident before you accept.
Collecting the car: inspection and fuel
Walk round the car with a company employee before you leave, and again at the return, and ask for a written statement that it came back in good working order; with nobody there, photograph any damage yourself. Check the fuel policy in the same visit: with collect full and return empty, fuel left in the tank is not refunded, and prepaying fuel is worth accepting only if the terms said so before hire.
If a charge for damage or extras follows, write to the rental company first, then to your national European Consumer Centre, whose legal help is free.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a credit card to hire a car at Porto Airport?
Offers listed as not needing a credit card make up 0% of the 71 offers for Porto Airport; the figure counts offers, and each one states its own payment terms.
How much is the deposit for a hire car at OPO?
6 of the offers list no deposit, starting from $72.50 a day. Where a deposit applies, ECC-Net says the terms and conditions must state the requirement before you book.
What is the cheapest car available at OPO right now?
Volkswagen Golf are among the models near the bottom of the price list, which begins at $10 a day.
Is it cheaper to rent a car at Porto Airport or in the city centre?
Compare the totals of an airport offer and a city offer for the same dates: airport fees must already be inside the total price at booking, ECC-Net says.
What documents do I need to collect my rental car at OPO?
A driving licence valid in Portugal. IMT, the Portuguese mobility and transport institute, says a licence issued in an EU or EEA state is valid until the expiry date on it. A licence from a state that signed the road traffic conventions, or has an agreement with Portugal, can be used as a tourist for a limited time after entering the country; one from a state outside those conventions is not valid for driving in Portugal.
Where do I pick up my hire car at Porto Airport (OPO)?
At your supplier's desk on the public side of the terminal, before security, if it is one of the companies on the airport operator's list. Otherwise the pick-up point in your offer applies.
Can I pick up a hire car late at night at Porto Airport?
Not once the desks have closed: none on the operator's list is open past midnight, and one closes earlier.
Are there automatic cars available at Porto Airport?
Automatic gearboxes come with 54% of the offers.
Can I drop off the car at a different location from Porto Airport?
The one-way fee has to be part of the total price at booking, according to ECC-Net.
Are there hire cars with a child seat available at OPO?
A child seat is listed as an optional extra on 71 of the 71 offers, and ECC-Net says optional extras must be itemised in the price.
