Where can I rent a car in Bodø?
Rental companies at the airport, phone numbers and booking tips.
Short answer
You can rent a car at Bodø Airport from Avis, Hertz, Budget, Europcar, Sixt and Enterprise, which also covers Alamo and National, according to Avinor. Avinor lists a phone number for each company but not desk locations or opening hours, so confirm pick-up details when you book. In summer it pays to book well ahead.
Why
- Avinor's car rental page for Bodø Airport lists Avis on 75 54 10 00, Hertz on 75 54 84 00 and Sixt on 75 54 01 00.
- Budget (948 04 333) and Europcar (412 49 110) are also listed, and Enterprise, Alamo and National share one entry with the number +47 900 57 563.
- Visit Norway strongly recommends booking a rental car in advance, particularly in the summer season.
Details
Some rental companies require that you have held your licence for at least one year, according to Visit Norway. Driving licences from most countries outside the EU/EEA can be used in Norway for up to three months. Tolls are billed afterwards by the rental company, and Avis says the charge usually arrives a few weeks after the rental ends.
Tip
Ask the company where to collect the car at the airport and what happens if your flight is delayed, since Avinor's page gives no desk locations or opening hours.
