How to find Hertz at Paris Orly Airport
Check how pickup works for your Hertz car rental at Paris Orly Airport. You might be able to grab your vehicle at the airport, be met by staff, or catch a shuttle bus to the rental lot. Kick off your car rental search and filter by 'Pickup' to find what options you have for collection.
Airport terminal: Counters sit inside or next to arrivals, so pickup is quick and easy. Land, grab your bags and get going.
Free shuttle bus: The rental office isn't inside the terminal area. Instead, a free bus takes you to the nearby site where the car is waiting to be collected.
Meet and greet: Not long after landing, a member of staff will meet you at the terminal. They'll hand over the paperwork and keys before showing you to your car.
Want a quicker way to get to your car? Some providers offer self-service pickup, where you collect your keys from a kiosk or lockbox instead of a desk. No queuing for keys, no standing around for paperwork, just a faster start to your trip.
Hertz car rental at Paris Orly Airport: What you need to know
Transmission: Choose between 'Automatic' (takes the stress out of changing gears) and 'Manual' (stick shift). Most rental companies include both, so use the 'Transmission' filter to find your preferred option.
Fuel policy: Go for a 'Fair fuel policy' to keep things simple. You pick up the car full and bring it back full, so you're only paying for the fuel you use.
Mileage limits: Select 'Unlimited mileage' under the 'Policies' filter to roam wherever the road takes you without added mileage charges.
Age requirements: To rent a vehicle in France, you generally have to be at least 21 years old. Some locations may rent vehicles to younger drivers at an extra cost, so always check the policies before securing your ride.
Side of the road: Traffic in France sticks to the right side of the road.
Speed limits: Local speed limits are usually about 45kph in built-up areas and around 125kph on highways. Check the road signs, as limits may vary.
Required documents: You'll need a current driver's licence and extra photo ID when collecting your Hertz car rental. Any additional requirements will be listed in your booking.
Deposits and credit card: Providers typically place a temporary hold on a credit card to cover the security deposit. Debit cards are rarely accepted at pickup, so it's best to have credit available.
Insurance: Excess insurance isn't required, but it's a smart add-on if you'd rather play it safe. Insurance policies vary between providers, so check before you book.
Add ons: A navigation system, additional drivers and child seats can all be added while booking your Hertz car rental. Sort these in advance to save time at the counter.
