Where do I collect my rental car at Paphos Airport?
Paphos Airport is reasonably small with just the one terminal so collecting your vehicle should be relatively straightforward. Whether you've booked car rental with the desk in the airport terminal itself, desk in the carpark or a shuttle bus everything is easy to find thanks to the compact nature of the airport.
Desk in airport providers are the easiest to find as you'll be met with signs in the arrival hall, check your rental voucher and find the logo of the rental company you've chosen. Collection instructions are on your pre-paid voucher should you ever get lost! Some companies are located at the airport but not necessarily inside the terminal building; once you leave the building you'll see the carpark where most of the other rental companies are based. If you've booked a shuttle service, a rental representative will be waiting outside for you.
Getting to your accommodation couldn't be easier as there is only one road out of Paphos Airport (E603) which takes you to the B6 road to Paphos itself. Hop on the A6 motorway to access the rest of Cyprus and start your holiday in style.
