FAQ
How can I pay for my rental car?
Payment for a rental car should preferably be made by credit card. It is possible to pay by debit card, however at the rental counter you will need a credit card issued to the main driver in order to secure the deposit for your rental car.
Who is allowed to drive the rental car and what are the conditions?
A rental car can be driven by a main driver, that is the person registered in the booking. Additional drivers may be added to the reservation at extra fee. The main and additional drivers are to present a valid driving license, which they have been in possession of for at least one year (please refer to the rental conditions), and a valid identity card/passport. Additionally, the main driver is to present a valid credit card issued in their name.
Do I have to pick up and return the car at any time? What happens if I am late for pick-up?
We recommend that you pick up the car at the agreed time as the availability of the car cannot be guaranteed in case of a delay. As a rule, local suppliers keep vehicles available up to 30 or 60 minutes after the agreed time. If a delay is inevitable, please contact the rental agency (you will find their contact details on the voucher).
What documents are required to pick up the vehicle?
When picking up the vehicle, the main driver is to present the following documents: the printed voucher, their identity card or passport; their driving's license and their valid credit card.

Cheap car rental at East Midlands Airport

East Midlands Airport is situated in the middle of Derby, Leicester and Nottingham, all within 20 miles of the airfield. Its central location in the UK makes the airport a major cargo hub, and is the second busiest UK airport for freight traffic. Voted Best Regional Airport and the World’s Leading Eco Friendly Airport, over 4 million passengers use the airport each year, making it the 13th busiest airport in the UK by passenger traffic. HAPPYCAR offers various attractive options for an East Midlands airport car hire so that wherever you decide to go, your stay in the UK is stress-free from day one. We check the prices of international and local providers so that you don’t have to check each website to provide you with the best deals on a car hire to make your money go further on a rental car that fits your specific needs. You have the options of choosing car size, pick up location and type of insurance to ensure you get the best deal on a great car hire!

Background information

Opened on an RAF site in 1965, an increased volume of cargo traffic spurred further development, and the airport recorded one million passengers by 1985. In 1993, the East Midlands Airport became the first regional airport in the UK to be privatized, and £77 million was invested over an eight-year period. In 2004, the East Midlands Aeropark was situated on a new site and the terminals have recently been remodeled.

The Aeropark is both an aviation museum and a viewing area, where you can study the preserved planes of yesteryear or watch the modern airliners of today taking-off and landing at a growing international passenger and cargo airport. The Aeropark also includes a viewing mound parallel to the runway at East Midlands Airport and remains one of the region’s top aviation attractions, offering uninterrupted views of aircraft on the runway and taxiways.

Excursions

The East Midlands Airport is very well connected, with excellent road links that put you within an hour’s distance of millions of people in England. Easy access to Derby, Leicester and Birmingham is available on the motorway, with Sheffield and Manchester just a little further out. Whether travelling to the UK on business or pleasure, you can experience the true convenience of stepping off the plane to drive off in your very own car rental East Midlands Airport. The centralized location of airport means that you can immediately take advantage of the primary road network with an east Midlands Airport car rental and on to all of the UK’s major cities, with a speed, convenience and personal freedom that public transportation just can’t beat.
