How to find National at Prague Airport
Picking up your National car rental at Prague Airport can be done in a few different ways. Collection may be at the airport, through meeting with staff on arrival, or by shuttle to the rental area. Make use of the 'Pickup' filter as you search to discover all the options available at the airport.
Airport terminal: Pick up the car right at the terminal area, with the rental counter next to or in arrivals.
Free shuttle bus: This collection option comes into play when the supplier is close to the airport rather than at it. A free bus travels between the terminal and the rental site.

Want fewer steps between landing and driving? Some providers offer self-service pickup, letting you collect keys from a lockbox or kiosk.
National car rental at Prague Airport: What you need to know
Transmission: Make use of the 'Transmission' filter to choose between 'Automatic' and 'Manual.' Automatic selects the right gears for you, while Manual is the standard stick shift. The majority of rental companies include both.
Fuel policy: Skip the extra costs by booking a vehicle with a 'Fair fuel policy.' You pick up the car full and return it full, meaning you only pay for fuel you've used.
Mileage limits: Unlimited mileage lets you focus on the journey instead of watching the odometer tick over. Check for this feature under the 'Policies' filter and rack up the miles, not the fees.
Side of the road: Traffic in Czechia keeps to the right side of the road.
Speed limits: Stay within local speed limits of about 45kph in built-up areas and around 125kph on highways. Always check the posted signs, as limits may vary.
Required documents: When collecting your National car rental, you'll typically need your physical driver's licence and a second photo ID. If extra requirements apply, your booking will list them.
Deposits and credit card: Providers typically place a temporary hold on a credit card to cover the security deposit. Debit cards aren't widely accepted at pickup, so make sure you have credit.
Insurance: Excess insurance isn't required, but it helps cover you in a tough spot. Not all insurance policies are equal, so check before booking.
Add ons: GPS units, child seats and additional drivers can all be added while booking your National car rental. Organise them ahead of time to make pickup easier.
