Finding Your Way to the Car Rental Center

Once you've collected your luggage and passed through customs, you'll find yourself in the Arrivals Hall. From here, getting to the dedicated Car Rental Center is easy. Just look for the prominent signs pointing towards "Autonoleggio" or "Rent a Car."

The Car Rental Center is located in a separate building just a short distance from the main terminal. You have two convenient options to get there.

Getting to the Car Rental Center

Quick Walk

Free Shuttle Bus

Option 1: A Quick Walk

For most travelers, walking is the fastest way to reach the rental desks.

Exit the Arrivals Hall

Exit the main doors of the Arrivals Hall.

Follow the Walkway

Turn right and follow the clearly marked, covered pedestrian walkway.

Arrive at the Center

The walk is about 500 meters (roughly a third of a mile) and takes approximately 5-7 minutes at a normal pace. It's a straight path that leads you directly to the entrance of the Car Rental Center building.

Inside the Rental Center: Locating Your Agency

The Palermo Airport Car Rental Center is a modern, consolidated facility that houses most of the major rental companies under one roof. When you enter, you'll see a large hall with various counters, similar to an airline check-in area.

Your QEEQ voucher will state which rental car company is providing your vehicle (e.g., Sicily by Car, Sixt, Avis, etc.). Simply find the corresponding desk for that company. To make it even easier, here is a list of the primary agencies located at the PMO center.
