Top tips for renting a car at Fort Mcmurray airport
- Car hire at Fort McMurray Airport in Alberta, Canada, is very popular. Among other passengers, the airport services many of the staff that come to Fort McMurray to work on the Athabasca Oil Sands, the industrial zone that surrounds Fort McMurray. It’s very useful when travelling here to have your own car as the area is quite large and while there is local transport, it can be slow and quite complicated in terms of reaching where you need to go. Fort McMurray is a so-called boom town at the heart of this energy resource and the town is very focused on this industry.
- The nearest petrol stations to the airport are on the outskirts of Fort McMurray and around an 11min drive from the airport. There are a number just off Route 63 as you approach the airport but none immediately beside the airport. Make sure you refuel here before you return your car.
- Returning your car to Fort McMurray is very straightforward. On approach to the airport campus you will start to see signs for car hire. Follow these, park in your hire company’s section and remove all your personal belongings. Return to the car hire desks on Level 1 in the terminal and exchange keys and documents and you’ll be free to go. If you arrive outside normal hours there will be a drop-box for you to leave your keys.
- Most of the car hire firms at Fort McMurray operate from 10:00 until 19:30, with a small number, such as National, operating from 08:00 until 23:59. If you prefer to deal with staff face-to-face then it’s best to arrange to collect and return your car during these hours.
- Book your rental car at Fort Mcmurray airport at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
