Wellington Airport frequently asked questions

Is EasyTerra Car Rental the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes deductible reimbursement and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

Can I rent a car at Wellington Airport without a credit card?

In general, you always need a credit card to rent a car from EasyTerra.

You pay a deposit when you pick up the car. You need a credit card in the name of the main driver to pay this deposit. The rental company will then put a temporary hold on your credit card for the amount of the deposit so they can recover the costs of any damage or other extra costs.

When you return the rental car, it will be checked for damage or other defects. If no damage is found, the amount of the temporary hold on your credit card will be released. You can read more about the deposit on this page: Car rental deposit

Location information for Wellington Airport

Wellington Airport in a nutshell

Wellington Airport has been thoroughly renovated in 2010. A new terminal was erected, nicknamed 'The Rock', which from the outside indeed looks like a rock.

The airport is situated 8 kilometers southeast of the city center of Wellington, New Zealand's capital. There's no train connection with the airport, but every 15 minutes an express bus runs to the center of New-Zealand's capital. The airport is situated at the end of Highway 1 and is therefore easily reachable by car.

The airport offers a good number of restaurants, cafés, and (snack) bars, but the number of shops is not overwhelming. You can rent meeting or conference rooms for business meetings. The airport's conference center has small and large meeting rooms (2 to 100 people). Other facilities at Wellington Airport include banks, exchange offices, a post office, and wireless internet (in the food court).

In the aviation industry Wellington Airport is indicated by the abbreviations WLG (IATA airport code) and NZWN (ICAO airport code).
