Getting a car hire at Sitia Airport will allow you to travel across Greece without restriction. By booking your car from the airport you will be able to get to your vehicle and onto the road quickly and with ease. Many tourist locations and historical sites are not easily visited using public transport and with your own vehicle, you can see the sights at your own pace without having to worry about fluctuating taxi fares or bus schedules and stops.
You can get through the check-in process quicker by opting to use Alamo's Accelerated Check-In process. This allows you to upload your documents required for pick-up like your driver's license and passport which will fast track the processing of your booking when you get to the service desk. Major providers like Hertz and Enterprise will have loyalty programs that may offer express service. Alamo and National both offer one-way drop-off, which is very useful if you are picking up your car hire at Sitia Airport but departing via another.
The terminal is usually busiest in the evenings between 15:00 and 18:00 so if you want to get in and out as quickly as possible it's better to go earlier in the day. The terminal is usually quietest in the morning between 06:00 and 12:00 so early morning is the best time to avoid any crowds. However, any time outside of peak hours will usually be very quiet making for a simple pick-up and drop-off process.
Bear in mind your provider's opening hours and whether after-hours services are available when choosing your provider. Exer Rent-a-Car is open 24h a day while Hertz and Dollar are open between 08:00 and 21:00 and you may be able to arrange after-hours pick-up and drop-off for an extra fee. Enterprise and Alamo don't offer after-hours services and both have two opening periods, one in the morning between 9:00 and 12:00 and the other in the evening between 06:00 and 08:00.
