How do I pick up a rental car at Sunshine Coast Airport?

There is one terminal and a selection of on-site car rental brands to select from at Sunshine Coast Airport. See below for clear instructions on how to find Sunshine Coast Airport’s car hire desks and where to pick up your rental car.

Sunshine Coast Airport terminal

  • Sunshine Coast Terminal

    The Sunshine Coast Airport has a single terminal, serving both domestic and international flights. Air New Zealand, Bonza, Jetstar, Qantas, and Virgin Australia all have flights using the airport.

Pick up instructions

  • Is your rental company desk on-airport or off-airport?

    Sunshine Coast Terminal

    On airport
    The on-airport hire car desks are located near the arrivals hall in the airport terminal. Directions
    Off airport
    The off-airport rental car desks are accessed by shuttle. Directions
  • Finalise your rental agreement and collect keys

    Once you are at the hire car company desk, you’ll need to finalise your rental agreement and collect your vehicle keys.
  • Head to the designated car park to pick up your car

    Sunshine Coast Terminal

    On airport
    The on-airport hire cars are parked outside the arrivals hall in the airport parking lot. Directions
    Off airport
    If you booked with an off-airport hire car provider, you’ll need to catch a shuttle to the car rental provider’s premises near the airport. Directions
  • What should I do if the desk is unattended?

    Hopefully the car rental company has left a sign with instructions or a contact number. In this situation, use the number they have provided and let them know that you have arrived or follow the directions out to the car park where a rental attendant will help you.

    If there is no sign, check your booking confirmation email for a contact phone number.

    If you still have no luck with making contact, call us at 1300 722 920 and consider heading to the parking area and look for uniformed staff. Don’t be alarmed. It’s not unusual to see unmanned rental desks, but rest assured there’s usually help out in the car park where the rentals are located.

    We'll be right back
