Thessaloniki Airport Guide

Car Hire

Located around nine miles from the city centre of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki Airport is an ideal gateway for those wanting to holiday in the area. Officially called Macedonia International Airport, it is the second busiest airport in Greece and the main airport serving the north of the country. With a number of companies offering car rental in Thessaloniki Airport in the terminal, self-driving from the airport to your final destination is the perfect way to take in the sights conveniently.

Who to Book With
There are a number of international car rental companies available within the airport terminal. Hertz, Avis and National sit alongside a number of local companies as well as Sixt and Europcar. All of these companies offer a variety of vehicles and both pre-booked and on-the-day rentals.

Need to Know Essentials
In order to collect a pre-booked vehicle, you will need to show the following documentation:

- Both parts of a valid driver’s licence
- A valid credit card
- Proof of address, such as a passport or utility bill
- The booking reference number or email

For more info read our FAQ's.

Driving
Driving is on the right, with overtaking on the left. A useful law in Greece is that one petrol station in each area must be open 24 hours, including on Sunday. However, for long journeys it is still advisable to fill the tank wherever possible. Running a red light is illegal and can result in a hefty fine. Fines are also enforced for drivers who don’t stop at stop signs, cross over double white lines, park illegally or use a mobile phone while driving. Seatbelts are mandatory and children under the age of four must use a child seat. Road signs in the main cities and towns are in English; however, drivers should expect Greek only signage in rural areas.

See our guide to Greece for more information on driving here.

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.
