How to find Hertz at Sofia Airport
Knowing where to go is the first step to collecting your Hertz car rental. You could be heading to a pickup point right at the airport, meeting with a staff member, or catching a shuttle bus to the rental area. Run a car rental search and use the 'Pickup' filter to explore the options available at Sofia Airport.
Airport terminal: Counters are next to or inside arrivals, so you can skip the transfer. Land, grab your bags and get going.
Free shuttle bus: The rental site is close to the airport instead of at the terminal. A free shuttle takes you to where your car is waiting.
Meet and greet: A member of staff meets you at the terminal not long after you land. They hand over the paperwork and keys on the spot.
Want fewer steps between landing and driving? Some providers offer self-service pickup, which lets you collect your keys from a lockbox or kiosk.
Hertz car rental at Sofia Airport: What you need to know
Transmission: Make use of the 'Transmission' filter to choose between 'Automatic' and 'Manual.' Automatic handles gear changes for you, while Manual is the traditional stick shift. The majority of rental companies offer both.
Fuel policy: Avoid extra costs by booking a vehicle with a 'Fair fuel policy.' You collect the car with a full tank and bring it back full, so you pay only for the fuel you've used.
Mileage limits: Select 'Unlimited mileage' under the 'Policies' filter so you can roam wherever the road takes you without added mileage charges.
Side of the road: Traffic in Bulgaria keeps to the right side of the road.
Speed limits: Keep within the local speed limits. Most of the time that's 45kph in urban areas and around 135kph on highways, unless signs say otherwise.
Required documents: As a rule, bring your physical driver's licence and another form of photo ID when collecting your Hertz car rental. Your booking will lay out the exact list.
Deposits and credit card: Providers often place a pre-authorised hold on a credit card as a security deposit. Debit cards are rarely accepted at pickup, so it's best to have your credit card handy.
Insurance: Car rental excess insurance isn't a necessity, but it can help you avoid paying a big excess fee. Check what's covered before you book.
Add ons: GPS units, child seats and additional drivers can all be added while booking your Hertz car rental. Sort them out ahead of time to make pickup easier.
