The city of Geneva in Switzerland is world renowned for its business, political and financial status as well as being a popular tourist destination for people wanting to visit the beautiful lake Geneva, the city and the Alps. Geneva Cointrin International Airport, or simply Geneva Airport, is 5 kilometres from the city and offers an easy gateway to the city and the surrounding area. The airport sees approximately 11.5 million passengers travel through it every year, both for business and pleasure. As well as being the Swiss Air Hub, it also caters for some low cost airlines such as Easyjet that has opened up the location for weekend travellers on a budget.
Being such a busy airport with so many passengers, both business travellers and tourists, there is no shortage of rental agents such as AVIS and other international car hire companies. You can find these agents in the main terminals. However even with so many agents available there is no guarantee of car hire availability if you simply turn up at the desk without booking in advance. Most travellers will reserve their car hire ahead of their trip to ensure that they have the transportation they need for their stay. The Internet is by far the easiest way to bring you peace of mind and book your car hire before you travel. Online booking also has the added advantage of special booking offers and deals. Once you have reserved your car rental you can relax in knowing that you have a car waiting for you as soon as your plane lands and you can go on to explore Geneva and the surrounding area with the least amount of effort.
