About Renting a Car at Corfu Airport

Demand for rental cars at Corfu Airport explodes during the Greek high season from May to September. Popular car classes sell out quickly - book early and compare prices to avoid expensive last-minute options. Ioannis Kapodistrias Airport (CFU) is Corfu's most important car rental hub with 45 rental companies - one of the broadest selections in all of Greece.

The airport is 2 km south of Corfu Town and has direct flights from Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Arlanda during the summer season. Pick up your car directly in the arrivals hall and start exploring the island immediately. The airport has a unique runway that ends right at the sea - a spectacular sight for plane spotters.

Just outside the terminal exit, Corfu's road network begins, and within 10 minutes of driving you can choose between heading north to the quiet beaches of Gouvia (10 km) or south to the lively Benitses (14 km). With 45 rental companies at the airport, competition is fierce - book online in advance for the best prices, but always compare against local rental companies on site. Avoid accepting the 'full-to-empty' fuel policy - always choose 'full-to-full'.

Drive directly to your accommodation and avoid Corfu Town center during rush hours 08-09 and 17-18. How many car rental companies are there at Corfu Airport? At CFU we compare prices from 45 companies, including international chains such as Hertz, Avis, and Europcar as well as local firms with competitive prices.

How long does it take to pick up a rental car at Corfu Airport? The major companies have desks in the arrivals hall. With advance booking and a digital contract, it usually takes 15-30 minutes.

During high season, queues can occur. Can I drive the rental car from Corfu Airport to the ferry terminal? Yes, the new port (Lefkimmi) in the south is 40 km away and the old port in Corfu Town is just 3 km away.

Check the rental company's rules about taking the car on a ferry to the mainland.

We compare prices from all major providers at Corfu Airport so you can see the total cost upfront - including insurance, fuel terms and any extras. Most bookings include free cancellation up to 48 hours before pickup, giving you flexibility if your plans change.

What to Know Before Picking Up at Corfu Airport

🚗 1) Pick the Right Terms

  • Fuel: "Full-to-full" is usually the fairest deal.
  • Extra driver: can cost extra - check before booking.
  • Automatic: often pricier and in shorter supply.
Pro tip: Cheapest rate + expensive terms = an expensive rental in disguise.

🪪 2) Bring the Right Documents

  • Driver's license (usually held for at least 1 year)
  • Passport or national ID
  • Credit card in the driver's name for the deposit
A valid license is accepted in most of Greece. Check if an IDP is needed.

📸 3) Drama-Free Pickup

  • Film the car from all angles + the dashboard.
  • Photograph scratches, wheels and windshield.
  • Keep your fuel receipt when returning.
60 seconds now can save 6 weeks of email disputes.
