Car hire at El Paso Airport

The El Paso Airport car rental center is located on the lower level of the terminal, near gates E14-E44. You can access this area via the airport's D Concourse.

Distance from the airport's car rental center to the central business district is 25min driving and 45min by public transport.

All drivers aged 25 and over will need to produce a valid driver's license from their country of residence. If you’re not from the U.S., you'll also be asked for proof of your current address in the form of a utility bill that has been dated no more than three months ago, or an International Driving Permit. You may also be asked for a credit card to hold the car rental. For insurance purposes, you will need to provide proof of insurance that meets the minimum requirements.

No, the Airport car rental center is located on the same level as the terminal, so you won't need to feed any money into an automated machine. You can also leave your vehicle at one of several off-site facilities if that's preferred. When you return your rental vehicle, be sure that there's no damage and any paperwork has been signed by both parties.

There's a spacious waiting area at the car rental center, as well as a lounge to relax in or make use of power points for recharging devices. There are family restrooms on-site and plenty of seating. You can also get a free cup of coffee or tea while you wait. Some car rental companies offer free shuttle service to and from the airport for their customers.
