Alicante Car Hire
Although you will come across a large number of car hire companies offering car hire at Alicante Airport, only ten actually have branches within the Airport Terminal.
These are obviously the easiest and most convenient ones to deal with, as you can collect your luggage and make arrangements to collect your car at the desk directly outside the arrivals hall.

Because you are hiring a car in a foreign country it is worth understanding the different types of fuel available. It is allowed to carry petrol in a can just in case you go exploring and get stuck in some remote spot. All grades of unleaded petrol (benzin), diesel (gasoleo 'A') and LPG are available in Spain as well as lead substitute additive (leaded no longer exists). Credit and debit cards are widely accepted and it can be a good idea to let your card issuer know you will be travelling abroad as this ensures that they do not suspend your card if they spot it being used in unfamiliar places, which some have been known to do as an anti-fraud measure.
