Car rental location Johannesburg International Airport

Location information for Johannesburg International Airport

Johannesburg airport is the largest airport in Africa. It is also known as ORTIA, which stands for O. R. Tambo International Airport. This airport was known as Jan Smuts Airport before South Africa gained its independence.

It was in 1994 that the ANC made a decision that prominent buildings like airports would not be named after politicians. However, just 12 years later, this airport has been again renamed after a president. This airport is situated in the province of Gauteng, East to Johannesburg. Because of its prominent location and situation it is the busiest transport and air traffic hub for South Africa.

Because this airport is an international airport, it has a large number of car hire services operating from the airport itself. Before you go in for a cheap car hire service, you have to see if it offers you insurance, road tax, airport surcharges, location fees and charges for a driver.

Car hire services, located in African airports may not have some of these options. That is why it is essential that you find the best car hire service, which can give you at least a fraction of the options you want. Many people go in for a cheap car hire service and then find out that they have to pay extra at the end of the day

Johannesburg International airport has some car hire services, which may give you some more additional service with the payment of a little bit extra. With this, you can manage to get your car delivered directly to the terminal of the airport. This is going to be done on the day of your arrival to pick you up from the airport.

You can also make sure that the car hire service sends your car to your hotel when required. If you are living in Johannesburg and want to go to Johannesburg airport, car hire services can also pick you up from your hotel or your house to take you to the airport.

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.
