Car Hire - Auckland Airport (AKL)

Enterprise Rent-A-Car offers reliable car and van hire in Auckland Airport via its rental counter, located in a dedicated car rental area outside the terminal building. To collect your vehicle, walk to the Park and Ride stop at either the domestic or the international terminal. From this point, a shuttle bus will take you to the rental office. Buses run frequently day and night, and the trip takes approximately 5 minutes.

The airport is situated south of central Auckland, in the residential suburb of Mangere. From the rental car collection point, it’s a 25-minute drive to the city centre. If your final destination is in the neighbourhoods across Shoal Bay, travel time is slightly longer, at 35 minutes.

New Zealand’s largest airport is within a 16-minute drive from Highway 1, a major road that traverses both the North and the South Island along their entire length. From this airport, you can also drive to Hamilton and to the coastal towns in the Firth of Thames. Flight connections link Auckland with major cities in the Americas, the Asia-Pacific region and the Gulf.

This airport serves Auckland’s entire metropolitan area, from Karepiro Bay in the north to the Pahurehure Inlet in the south. It’s also the main international gateway to Hamilton and to the Bay of Plenty area. The airport is also convenient for travellers headed for the Whangaparaoa Peninsula and the beaches and seaside villages on the northern shore of Orua Bay, which can be reached in 45 minutes with a car hire in Auckland Airport.
