Munich Airport Guide

Car Hire

Sitting less than 18 miles from Munich, Germany’s second-busiest airport allows swift access to the city and to top attractions in the rest of Bavaria. Shuttle buses run between the Munich Airport Centre and Munich and surrounding locations, while faster trains arrive in the city in around 20 minutes. Still, most visitors find that the easiest way to reach the city and other Bavarian locations is with car rental in Munich Airport, with Munich just over 30 minutes’ drive to the southwest.

Who to Book With
Worldwide car hire suppliers at the airport include Avis, Hertz, Sixt and Europcar, and German firm Rent a Terstappen also has a presence. All suppliers have counters at the Car Rental Centre in the Munich Airport Centre, which is located between terminals 1 and 2. Vehicles are collected from the Central Area between the Munich Airport Centre and Terminal 1’s Module C.

Need to Know Essentials
When collecting your vehicle, you will need to show the following documents:

- Your driver’s licence (both parts for UK nationals)
- The credit card that was used when making the reservation
- A document to confirm your ID
- Booking confirmation

For more info read our FAQ's.

Driving
On-street parking is plentiful though restrictions are enforced and motorists violating parking rules can expect a fine and the towing of their vehicle. Parking is either by ticket machine or disc, and most car hire firms supply discs with their vehicles. It is commonplace to pay first and fill later at petrol pumps, which do not release petrol until a credit card is inserted at the pump or an attendant is paid. It is mandatory to carry a warning triangle in your vehicle. Low emission zones (umweltzone) require a badge to drive in.

See our guide to Germany for more information on driving here.

Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.
