NATIONAL Rental Cars at Lisbon Airport

Lisbon Airport is also known as the Portela Airport, or the Lisbon Portela Airport, and has the official airport code of LIS. It is located very nearby the city of Lisboa, in Portugal, and is the country’s main international air gateway, serving millions of passengers per year. The airport is Portugal’s largest, and also one of the most important airports in southern Europe. With many facilities, the airport offers a wide range of transport options, including a selection of Lisbon Airport car rental companies, such as National. Passengers arriving at the airport can find the car hire counters of National in the arrivals area of Lisbon Airport.

National is just one of many car rental companies at Lisbon Airport.

National is a car hire company with over fifty years of experience in the industry, and a company which have mainly focused their attention on the car rental needs of the frequent airport business traveler. National is therefore available at the majority of airports worldwide. During their years of business and service, National has helped to pioneer the corporate account business, and was also the first rental company to offer a comprehensive frequent-renter program, by the name of Emerald Club. The club today still offers its clients many opportunities for easier and more efficient car rental procedures, and helps customers to save money as well. Even though National has been a leader in the corporate car hire sector for many years, they are also worth noting in the leisure industry, as many of their vehicles are highly suitable for families on holiday at various locations around the world.

At National Lisbon Airport, families will find their ideal car, and can choose from a number of vehicle categories. For five passengers, the Citroen Berlingo is ideal, with power steering, anti-lock brakes, air bags and air conditioning, and has some room for luggage as well. This car is found in National’s Compact vehicle category, and also comes with affordable rental rates. The Intermediate Wagon category offers vehicles similar to the Citroen C4 Picasso 1.6, which is an automatic vehicle, as well as the Citroen Picasso 1.6, with a manual transmission. Standard vehicles are larger sedans similar to the Citroen C5 2.0, and National offers families and groups of vacationers larger vans for all types of driving as well. Seven passengers can be seated in the Citroen C4 Grand Picasso 1.8, and up to nine people can comfortably ride in the Opel Vivaro 1.6.

Alternative vehicle categories offered by National include Mini, Economy, Premium and SUV. The Mini cars are the smallest in National’s fleet, and are the most affordable options. However, they are only suitable for up to four passengers, and will perhaps not be spacious enough for families and their luggage items. The Seicento 1.1 is an example of a vehicle in this category. Economy cars are slightly larger than those in the Mini car group, and include the Citroen C2 1.1, with a manual transmission and a hatchback shape. Mini and Economy cars are known to very fuel efficient as well. Business renters may require something more elegant in the Premium category, and customers fond of SUV's may like to try the Jeep 4x4 1.8.

The Lisbon Airport car hire companies offer services such as one way hires, ideal for customers who do not wish to return to the airport, and hand controls for disabled drivers. A Lisbon Airport one way hire can be returned to another rental location, but may come with additional charges. Customers should also find out if there are any restrictions on the areas to which the vehicles may be driven, if a longer journey is planned. National may offer hand controls from Lisbon Airport, and this equipment is hired free of charge for disabled customers with a lower limb deficiency. The device may also include a steering wheel knob for additional assistance. National allows a disabled person to be the primary renter, even if unable to drive the vehicle, by using a designated driver with a valid drivers license. Most local licenses issued in the renter’s country of residence are accepted by National, provided that they are written in English. In some cases, an International Driving Permit may be required.

Before leaving Lisbon Airport, ensure that your rented car has been checked thoroughly for all existing damages, and that any found are noted on the report. If you are unsure about the workings of the vehicle be sure to ask any staff member of National to show you how to properly use the car, and also find out which type of fuel your car will be needing, as it could be petrol or diesel. All rented cars start the car hire period with a full tank of fuel, and should be returned the same if fuel has not been purchased upfront.

National Lisbon Airport, is open from 06:30 to 02:00, and will gladly assist with any further enquiries. Passengers arriving at this airport location are recommended to make an advanced vehicle reservation, by phone or online.
