Several car rental companies operate at the airport, making it easy to travel to Rotterdam, The Hague and other regions of the Netherlands. The service counters are located in a dedicated building next to the entrance of car park P4. To reach it, head from the terminal towards the Fletcher Hotel-Restaurant Wings-Rotterdam and follow the signs for the "Car Rental Center".
