Useful Info

Most popular car type	Compact

When you get a car hire at Chania Souda Airport (CHQ), you'll be giving yourself the flexibility to travel to the city centre and further out, which is not easily reachable by public transport. Travel directly to destinations on your holiday itinerary without waiting for public transport schedules or having to make changes along your route. Book a car hire at Chania Souda Airport and explore places like the traditional villages of Kefalas, Vamos, Kokkino Chorio, Douliana and Gavalochori while soaking up the beautiful view of the Cretan Sea on the one side and the White Mountains on the other.
The airport is a convenient place to get your hire car if you want to head out without delays. You'll also find it much easier to load up your car once and head out, rather than having to lug bags around from one mode of public transport to another. You'll find a wide range of cars providing what you are looking for on your trip, whether you need extra luggage space, more seats for more passengers or a compact car to zoot around the city centre and park easily.
You'll find there are around five car hire providers located at the airport. They are all reliable and offer great deals. All the car hire companies are located in the arrivals hall of the main terminal building, on the ground floor. When you collect your car hire directly from the airport, you'll find the whole process is pretty quick and takes about 20 minutes. You can cut that time down by making use of some car hire companies’ online check-in process before you reach the airport.
When returning your car hire at Chania Souda Airport, you'll find that most of the car hire companies are open till 20:00 seven days a week. If you return the car during these working hours, you'll be met by a company representative who will do the return checklist and then take the keys from you. If you have a later flight and need to return the vehicle after hours, you'll need to make a note of any damage to the car, check the mileage and fuel levels and then drop the keys into a dedicated drop box; your agency will need to be notified before you do this.
Book your car hire at Chania Souda airport at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

What are the requirements for car hire at Chania Souda Airport?
To hire a car in Chania, you must be at least 21 years old. This age requirement might change depending on the type of car you wish to hire. More premium categories require more driving experience, and if you wish to hire a more premium car at a younger age, you'll be charged a young driver fee in most cases. You must have had your valid driver's licence for at least one year before you attempt to hire a car in Chania. Some providers of car hire have a maximum age of 70.
What is a suitable car choice for driving in Chania?
You'll find driving on main roads in your Chania Souda Airport car hire is pretty easy, but the road quality drops when travelling to more remote locations in the city. You'll find some steep hills and narrow roads throughout the city and when venturing further. Narrow winding roads are not uncommon when heading to remote beaches. For this type of terrain, you'll want a compact, small or economy car that has a fair amount of horsepower and great handling.
Where is a good place to park my car hire in Chania?
There is on-street parking in some places, but it is limited and generally designed for smaller cars. On-street parking often gets full quickly, so it can be tricky to find a spot. Most of the public attractions and facilities have car parks that will allow you to park for a fee. These include Chania Inn, Arkadi Hotel, Corinna Mare Suites & Studios and a few others. You'll find free parking at Talos Square, which is opposite the Lighthouse of Chania.

The only thing that could of been better would to have full for full fuel as guessing how much you have used, always means that you over fill the car beyond what you have used

The car was good and very clean. When picking up and dropping off the car, it took a few minutes for someone to arrive.

Pick up is fine and just as described. However, they told us that they open up at 7 AM when we went to drop our car off we arrived at 7:45 AM and the place was closed. No one showed up until 8:10. Although we made it to the airport to get our flight, it was stressful not knowing if we would get there in time. They are located a five minute shuttle drive from the airport, not walkable.

Collection at airport was ok but we had to wait for the collection person as they had misunderstood our arrival time. We also had quite an old Audi A3 which was in good condition but had quite an old CD player and radio setup and no mod cons. Comfy though and staff were helpful and efficient.

I did not get the car they did not have an automatic and I tried to cancel additional insurance coverage but never could do this on my phone so I wasted $90 plus car rental fee.

They were terrible. We dropped the car off at 6:30 am to leave Crete and they were not open. No written instruction was given as to how to drop off the car. They are also located .75 mile from the airport and they had no shuttle so I had to walk (run) on a busy road to the airport to catch my flight.
