Collecting your vehicle
Our rental station is located within the car hire centre at Luton Airport which is a short distance away from the main terminal building, we operate a regular free shuttle bus that can transfer you there.

The shuttle bus is available from Bus Stop Bay C which is located at the pick-up and drop off area outside the arrivals concourse. Directions to the pick-up area are clearly signposted throughout the terminal building.

Returning your vehicle
The airport is just off the A505 and junction 10 of the M1. It’s about 30 miles from London, 25 miles from Milton Keynes, 90 miles from Birmingham, 50 miles from Oxford, 35 miles from Cambridge and 22 miles from Bedford.

The airport is also just 5 minutes from the M1 and 15 minutes from the M25 (about 2 miles away) and is easily accessible from the A1.
