Hertz Car Rental at Pau Airport

Pau Airport is found in the commune of Uzein, which is just outside of the city of Pau, and is an airport which serves the towns in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques department of France. The airport’s official name is the Pau-Pyrénées Airport, due to its location, and it has been allocated the official IATA code of PUF. Over 600,000 passengers pass through the airport every year, and it is a modern, friendly and efficient establishment with all the facilities required by arriving and departing passengers. Car hire companies such as Hertz Pau are available for all in need of transport, and they offer competitive rental rates for airline passengers. Hertz is one of the most experienced providers of car rental services, and one of the most respected in the world.

The terminal building is large enough to handle a million passengers per annum, and currently, between 2,500 and 3,000 passengers enter the building every day. The airport, although not the largest in France, is well equipped with a variety of facilities, which include meeting rooms for business clients, shops and restaurants, WiFi connections, a VIP lounge and the Pau Airport car hire companies, which are found in the arrival hall. There are also travel agents, tourist information offices and ATMs. Passengers arriving at the airport can hire a car directly over the rental counters of Hertz, or in advance, from an online website which supports Hertz car rental reservations. At this rental location, Hertz is open to meet the arrival flights, that mainly operate between the hours of 05:00 and 22:45.

Hertz is perhaps the only car hire company with a large range of vehicles that are possible to reserve by specific make and model. The majority of the Pau Airport car rental companies only offer vehicle categories, in which have several cars that may be received by the customer. Hertz has three collections of vehicles which can be specifically booked, and they are the Fun Collection, the Prestige Collection and the Green Collection. The Hertz Fun Collection is a range of vehicles which are as their name suggests – ‘fun’, and includes the Smart For Two, Fiat 500 Lounge, Mini Cooper, Peugeot 308 CC, Alfa Romeo Giulietta and the BMW 1-Series Cabriolet. The Green vehicles are fuel efficient and eco-friendly, and are the Ford Fiesta 1.4, VW Golf TDI and Peugeot 308 HDI Auto, while the Prestige Collection contains cars that are more elegant, such as the Mercedes E Convertible, Mercedes SLK and the Volvo XC90. The Renault Grand Espace and Mercedes Viano are also available from this collection, and they are larger vans ideal for groups of travellers.

Customers of Hertz landing at Pau have the choice of cars in the Standard and 4WD/SUV/Minivan categories as well. These cars are hired by category, and are similar to the Chevrolet Spark, Peugeot 107, Opel Corsa, Ford Focus, Opel Astra, Ford C-Max, Opel Zafira, Peugeot 5008 and Opel Vivaro, which is one of Hertz’s largest vehicles, able to accommodate up to nine passengers. All Hertz vehicles are of the latest models, and are considered to be in sound mechanical condition. For most rentals, customers have the option of the Hertz Rent-It-Here and Leave-It-There service, or a Hertz one way hire. This option is convenient for all who would prefer to return their vehicle to a different rental location, and not to drive back to the airport. One way hires may incur additional expenses, but may also be free of charge if the vehicle is returned to a location in France.
