Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Cairns Intl. Airport (CNS)?
You certainly can. Once you've collected your bags at Cairns Intl. Airport (CNS), you'll find the rental companies located at the arrivals hall of Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. Choose from Budget, Avis or Europcar. Thrifty and Redspot/Enterprise are also worth checking out.
What happens if I need to cancel my Cairns car reservation?
Don't stress! If you're able to cancel your rental more than six hours prior to picking up the car, you may be eligible for a complete refund. It's a good idea to scan the rental policy as there are some exemptions. Head to our Customer Service Portal if you still have queries.
How do I find the best car rental deals in Cairns with Expedia?
Expedia makes it easy to compare costs, offers and providers, and to check customer recommendations. Combine your Cairns car rental with hotel or flight bookings and you'll make even bigger savings.
What do you need to rent a car in Cairns?
You'll generally require a current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name when picking up the keys to your car. Proof of coverage may also be required if you decide to opt out of the company's insurance plan. Rules often differ between rental companies, so remember to check in advance.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Cairns?
Whether you're planning to stay in Cairns or venture beyond, it's easy to reserve a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip information and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll help you find the best long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Cairns car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so you'll have to do a little homework. Managed to find a Cairns outlet that does rent to drivers under 25? Great! Just be aware that extra fees often apply to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're interested in will have all the details you need.
