Car rental location Margate Airport

Margate Airport Guide

Margate Airport is the gateway to the resort community by the same name in South Africa's KwaZulu Natal region. It is a domestic hub with semi-regular flights arriving from Johannesburg. Margate Airport is also a popular charter flight destination.

The main airline at Margate Airport is Airlink, a subsidiary of South African Airways. As South Africa's flagship carrier, this airline is well-connected to the rest of the country. A connecting flight to Johannesburg allows for transport to all major cities in the region. Cheap car hire at Margate Airport is offered by several well-known and local firms.

With car hire at Margate Airport you can enjoy access to the entire coastal region. There are many secluded beaches outside of Margate equipped with parking and picnic facilities. This is especially useful from December to January when the number of tourists in Margate is high.

Margate Airport sits three miles west of the beach with access to Margate's residential neighbourhoods as well as R61, a north-south motorway that connects to Durban and Port Edward. If you have procured car rental in Margate Airport, getting to and from the resorts on the coast is simple and takes less than 10 minutes.

Beyond its role as a hub for holidaymakers, Margate Airport also operates a well-known flight school called Zero Four. They specialise in small aircraft, and pilots-in-training couldn't ask for a better landscape to fly over. There's also a country club north of the airport with a golf course that's open to non-members.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is Carrentals.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

 What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

 Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

 What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. 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.

 How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

 When will I get a confirmation of my booking?
