Car rental location Portland Airport

Location information for Portland Airport

Portland Airport serves Victoria's oldest European settlement, which is just a brief distance away with car rental in Portland Airport. Most of this airport's current flights are Sharp Airlines charter flights to Hamilton, Adelaide and Melbourne's Essendon and Avalon airports. Sharp Airlines has its maintenance base here while an active aero club for private pilots is also on hand.

Portland Airport facilities

Because of the airport's limited passenger throughput, vehicles must be reserved in advance. The best way to do this is to compare car hire online as far in advance of your excursion to Portland as possible. The departures area features places to eat and shop, while bank machines and toilets are situated throughout the airport. A waiting area and an information point are also available.

Portland Airport excursions

Portland, on the shores of its namesake bay, has become the Shire of Glenelg's major urban centre. Two must-see attractions less than seven miles southwest of Portland are Cape Nelson Lighthouse and its surrounding coastal state park. Northwest of Portland, visitors can walk or ride horses along Cobboboonee National Park's numerous trails.

Best time to visit

Winter may be Portland's coldest season, but it is also prime whale-watching season. Winter rainfall is far heavier and more frequent than the light downpours which occasionally occur in summer. Apart from cold winter nights, weather conditions in Portland are typically humid, with temperatures ranging from mild to pleasantly warm depending on the season.

Car rental in Portland Airport

Although the Portland Cable Tram and the 155-mile long Great South West Walk are the best ways to explore Portland itself, car hire in Portland Airport is more practical when venturing outside the city limits. The Princes Highway leads 225 miles east to Melbourne, while the Henty Highway is the main route to Hamilton. The airport is situated close to the War Veterans Memorial Freeway.

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 121CarHire.com 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?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
