Local notes

Arrival and Handover

When you land at Munich Airport, whether at Terminal 1 or Terminal 2, the vehicle handover is coordinated with your flight schedule rather than fixed to a generic slot. The exact meeting point and time window are confirmed with you once your booking and flight details are in, so the car is ready when you arrive rather than waiting on a schedule that ignores delays.

Documents and Flight Details

Before arrival we ask for your flight number and expected landing time, which lets us adjust the handover if the flight changes. At the point of handover you will need your driving licence and the card used for the security deposit, along with any additional driver details agreed in advance. This is also when we walk through the vehicle's controls, its fuel or charge policy, and, if you are driving into the centre, the requirements of Munich's low-emission zone.

Return Returning a car at MUC follows the same logic in reverse: confirm your onward flight time and the collection point and window are arranged to match. If your trip continues beyond the city — toward Garmisch-Partenkirchen for a ski transfer, or south to the Starnberg lake area for a weekend — the return leg back to the airport is planned as part of the same conversation, not treated as a separate errand.

Choosing a Car for Your Arrival

A business arrival tied to Messe München or a corporate schedule usually calls for a sedan or SUV built for a straightforward airport-to-city transfer, such as a BMW X7 or a Maybach S580. An arrival ahead of a lake weekend or an alpine drive can suit a convertible or performance model instead. We ask about your onward plans at the time of booking so the car fits the drive that follows the airport leg, not only the transfer itself.

Simple process

How pickup works

  1. 01

    Share Flight Details

    Send your flight number and estimated arrival time once your booking is confirmed, so changes can be tracked ahead of landing.

  2. 02

    Confirm Meeting Point

    The exact meeting point at Terminal 1 or Terminal 2 is agreed with you individually for each booking, not fixed in advance.

  3. 03

    Vehicle Briefing

    At handover we review the car's controls, the deposit terms and the fuel or charge policy before you drive off.

  4. 04

    Plan the Return

    Your return flight time is used to schedule the collection window, coordinated the same way as the pickup.

Q & A

Airport Rental Questions

A quick read of what most rental clients ask before booking.

  • How is the security deposit handled for an airport rental?

    The deposit is taken on the card used at booking and released after the vehicle is returned and checked; refund timing follows your card provider's own processing.

  • Which car suits a drive from MUC to Garmisch or Starnberg?

    For the alpine route toward Garmisch-Partenkirchen an SUV with all-wheel drive is the more practical choice, especially in winter; for the shorter, flatter run to Starnberg a convertible or GT suits the drive better.

  • Can I book a car at the airport for one day, a weekend or a full week?

    One-day, weekend and weekly formats are all available, and the airport handover process is the same regardless of rental length.

  • Do you deliver to hotels or residences instead of the airport?

    Delivery beyond MUC to hotels, private residences or other points in the Munich area can be arranged alongside or instead of an airport handover.

  • Is same-day booking realistic for an airport pickup?

    Booking as close to your travel date as possible improves the chance of availability, though confirmation depends on the fleet at the time of your request.

  • Do I need winter tyres for an onward drive from the airport?

    For alpine routes such as Garmisch during the winter season, winter tyres are required, and this is confirmed as part of the vehicle briefing at handover.
