The Galway Airport may be relatively small but it does provide travellers with reliable passenger services. The airport serves connecting flights to major airports and destinations in UK such as London, Manchester, Dublin and Edinburgh. As the fastest growing airport in Ireland, the Galway features a modest array of reliable services including budget car rental options, currency exchange and childcare facilities.

The airport is housed in a single terminal building located in Carnmore on the northern part of Galway City. The terminal serves both arrivals and departures for Aer Arann flights that come to and from the airport. Aside from options for cheap car hire at the Galway Airport, passengers are also provided access to baby changing facilities through the Disabled Toilets. These are located near the main entrance of the terminal as well as at the Departures Lounge. Free wireless internet access is available all throughout the terminals so passengers can attend to their business functions while waiting for their flights.

The information desk at the airport is located inside the main entrance door. There is also another one at the café or bar located in the Departures lounge. There are two car parks available at the Galway airport and both are located in front of the building. Dining and shopping options are quite limited.

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 HireCars.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?
