Select a pickup time based on your flight arrival to avoid inconvenience due to delays.

Select a pickup location that is convenient for you. Some rental companies offer locations within the airport for quick access, while others may require shuttle transportation.

If you plan to share driving, check if the rental company allows a second driver and whether there are additional fees. Some companies offer free second driver options under certain conditions.

To secure the lowest prices, book your car hire at least 2 weeks in advance. December is typically the cheapest month for car hire from Bairnsdale Train Station.
