Airport terminal: Counters are next to or inside arrivals, so there's no need for a transfer. Land, grab your luggage and hit the road.
Free shuttle bus: The rental office isn't in the terminal. Instead, a free shuttle takes you to the nearby site where the car is waiting to be collected.

Avis car rental at Poitiers Airport: What you need to know
Transmission: Make use of the 'Transmission' filter to choose between 'Automatic' and 'Manual.' Automatic manages the gear changes, while Manual is the traditional stick shift. Most rental companies offer both.
Fuel policy: Choose a vehicle with a 'Fair fuel policy' to avoid unnecessary refueling costs. It arrives with a full tank and goes back the same way, so it's easier to keep track of what you're paying.
Mileage limits: Select 'Unlimited mileage' under the 'Policies' filter so you can roam wherever the road takes you without added mileage charges.
Age requirements: Generally, you have to be at least 21 years old to rent a vehicle in France. Younger drivers aren't always turned away — just expect some extra fees or restrictions. Check the companies' terms and conditions before you book.
Side of the road: If you're new to driving in France, don't forget that traffic here keeps to the right side of the road.
Speed limits: Follow the local speed limits. Usually that's 45kph in built-up areas and around 125kph on highways, unless road signs indicate differently.
Required documents: When collecting your Avis car rental, you'll generally need your physical driver's licence and another form of photo ID. If anything else is expected, it'll be listed in your booking.
Deposits and credit card: Providers often place a pre-authorised hold on a credit card as a security deposit. Debit cards are generally not accepted at pickup, so make sure you have credit.
Insurance: Excess insurance isn't required, but you'll be glad to have it if something goes wrong. Not all insurance policies are equal, so check before you book.
Add ons: From navigation systems and mobile Wi-Fi hotspots to additional drivers, the right extras can make all the difference to your Avis car rental.
