I was hesitant to book

I was hesitant to book a car from Unirent as I have no previous experience with them, and I prefer to use well known car hire companies because of issues I have had using less well known companies in the past. It worked out fine however because all my dealings at the airport where with Eurocar and I don’t really understand the reasoning behind the Unirent brand especially as I was in two minds not to book a car from them and choose and alternative brand instead.

Location information for Lugano Airport

The Swiss lakeside city of Lugano brings a touch of Italian flair to this corner of Switzerland. Its mix of natural scenery and cool urban fun makes it a hugely popular holiday spot, and Lugano's small international airport ensures travelers can get here in a flash from many cities around Europe via Swiss Air and Darwin Airline.


Lugano Airport facilities

Lugano's airport is situated just four kilometers from the city, to which it is connected by train, bus, taxi and car hire in Lugano Airport. The chic, modern terminal contains several options for food and a drink along with duty-free outlets and banking facilities.

Lugano Airport excursions

Lugano is a city awash with lovely lakeside scenery that is punctuated by the Alps. Endless outdoor attractions are within a short drive with car rental in Lugano Airport, including Lake Como, just 30 minutes away. Hiking trailheads, boat docks and bike paths will keep you active in between dining and shopping excursions in the city proper.


Best time to visit

The Ticino region around Lugano is blessed with its own microclimate that keeps conditions surprisingly balmy for a Swiss alpine city. Winters are dry and reasonably mild at around 8?C, while summers tend to be wet and warm. May is the wettest month, making the autumn months of September and October perhaps the nicest times to be here.


Car rental in Lugano Airport

With so much to do and explore around Lugano, most visitors find a rental car is a good investment. To help you get the best prices available on a rental, compare car hire costs beforehand online. With stiff competition among the global chains in Lugano, firms often offer lower rates online with advance reservations. Roads in this part of Switzerland are first class so driving is easy, but expect some steep hills and windy roads.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is CompareCarHire.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

 What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

 Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

 What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

 How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

 When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
