Car rental at Launceston Airport

Opt for a vehicle with air conditioning as a standard feature as it can get very hot while driving those long distances. All the trusted agents inside the airport will offer air conditioned cars, you can easily filter out the cars that don't have aircon by selecting the aircon option on the KAYAK site.

If you are planning on being in the country for less than three months then agents offering car hire at Launceston Airport will require you to produce your current valid overseas driver’s license on collection. Your overseas driver’s license should be in English; however, if it is not, you must be sure to obtain a translation document from your local road traffic authority. Use this document with your overseas driver’s license to secure your hire car.

This part is very important for agents operating in the airport. Some driving licences don't indicate an address at all, and others might have expired due to moving around and not updating the details. If this is the case you will not be allowed to collect the car. Make sure you have a current utility bill or authorised bank statement that does display your proof of address.

You will arrive on the second floor of the airport, in the Arrivals hall. You will need to head to the ground level of the airport. On the ground level, you will need to exit the passenger terminal and turn left. There you will see a designated hall with help desks for each rental agent available at the airport. Directly outside the hall, there is access to the road shuttle service, which will take you to the relevant parking lot. The hall is also attached to the disabled parking hall. Both the car rental and disabled parking lots can only be exited via the main entrance and exit to the airport. After the roundabout, you can turn left to head the Evandale or right to head to Launceston.

On average a rental car at Launceston Airport costs ₪170 per day.
