Tips for renting a car at Paris-Beauvais Airport....

Hiring a car at a new airport can seem like a lot of work. However, Paris-Beauvais Airport makes it easy. To help make your car hire process even more seamless, here are some tips to follow:

  • Most importantly, book your hire car in advance at least 24 hours prior. Paris-Beauvais is a mid-sized airport, yet many passengers will choose to hire a car. The airport is a popular choice for those who want to hire a car as it’s in a good driving location, and it’s small enough that hiring a car and exiting the car park is quick and easy.
  • Most hire cars in France are manual drives but allows you to take advantage of an automatic car as well, be sure to select that when you book. If you turn up on the day and request an automatic car, there might not be one available for you.
  • Check how to pay tolls. Some vehicles will have an automatic toll payment system installed, while others will require manual toll payment. Many highways and bridges in France require toll payment.
  • Check the pick-up and drop-off location times. Make sure they align with your travel schedule.

... but also driving and parking tips.

Here are tips for driving and parking in France:

Driving:

  • Most car rental agencies require the lead driver to be at least 21 years old. The policy varies, but some agencies will add an extra charge if the lead driver is under 25 years old.
  • The driver must have had their driving licence for at least one year.
  • It’s legally mandatory to carry a spare bulb kit in your vehicle, whether you own it or not. Check that your hire vehicle has a spare bulb kit with the car hire supplier.
  • There’s a low drink-drive limit. While the drink-drive limit is 80mg per 100ml of blood in other European countries, such as England, it’s 50mg per 100ml of blood in France. It’s best to avoid alcohol entirely if you are driving.
  • The speed limit signs are posted in kilometres per hour.
  • Children under 10 years old must sit in the back.
  • Filling up your tank is easy in France. Unleaded petrol is ‘sans plomb’ while diesel is ‘gozole’ or ‘gasoil’. Many petrol stations have automatic pumps with contactless payment.

 

Parking:

  • Street parking is legal and free on most roads unless stated otherwise. If there are dotted white lines or no markings on the road, then parking is free.
  • If parking is not permitted, you might see a sign stating ‘Stationnement interdit’ (no parking)
  • If you see a sign stating ‘Payant’, then parkers are required to pay.
  • There are ‘Blue Parking Zones’ in many French towns and cities. In these zones, you must display a blue disc in your front window to park. You can purchase a blue disc from local shops and failure to display a disk will result in a fine.
