How to find National at Mexicali Airport
Check how pickup works for your National car rental at Mexicali Airport. You can grab your ride on-site at the airport, be met by staff, or catch a shuttle bus to the rental area. Kick off your car rental search and filter by 'Pickup' to discover the options for collection.
Airport terminal: Pick up your ride right where you touch down. Counters sit inside or next to the arrival terminal, so you go from baggage claim to the open road fast.
Free shuttle bus: The rental office isn't in the terminal. Instead, a free bus takes you to a nearby site where the car is collected.
Meet and greet: Not long after you land, a representative will meet you at the terminal. They'll hand over the keys and paperwork before showing you to your car.
Prefer a simpler route from arrivals to the driver's seat? Some providers offer self-service pickup, which lets you collect your keys from a lockbox or kiosk.
National car rental at Mexicali Airport: What you need to know
Transmission: Use the 'Transmission' filter to choose between 'Automatic' and 'Manual.' Automatic handles gear changes for you, while Manual is the classic stick shift. Most rental companies offer both.
Fuel policy: Go for a 'Fair fuel policy' to keep things simple. You start with a full tank and bring it back full, meaning you only pay for the fuel you use.
Mileage limits: Unlimited mileage lets you focus on the journey instead of watching the odometer tick over. Check for this feature under the 'Policies' filter and cover more ground without piling on the fees.
Side of the road: If you haven't driven before in Mexico, remember that traffic here keeps to the right side of the road.
Speed limits: Keep within local speed limits of about 45kph in urban areas and around 100kph on highways. Check the road signs, as limits may vary.
Required documents: When collecting your National car rental, you'll generally need your physical driver's licence and a second photo ID. If there's anything extra, it'll be listed in your booking.
Deposits and credit card: Providers often place a pre-authorised hold on a credit card for the security deposit. Debit cards are not always accepted at pickup, so it's a good idea to carry a credit card.
Insurance: Excess insurance isn't required, but can be a real lifesaver if something goes wrong. Policies differ from one provider to another, so check before booking.
Add ons: Nifty extras like mobile Wi-Fi or a reverse camera can make your National car rental more enjoyable.
