Top 3 Things To Note For Picking Up Your Peugeot Car Rental at Bordeaux Airport:

• If you plan on driving a decent distance as soon as you retrieve your vehicle, be sure to choose the optional “full tank of fuel” during the booking process ahead of time. All vehicles come with ¼ tank of fuel by default therefore it’d be wise to fuel up in advance if you think you’ll need it.

• Be sure to provide your arrival flight information OR your estimated pickup time either during online booking process or at least the week prior to picking up your vehicle. This will ensure a smooth start to your trip as the agents will arrange their schedule for you.

• Download the location detail PDF and print it out to bring with you, you never know how your electronics will perform as soon as you enter a new country so it’ll make life less stressful if you have a hard copy.  We will also email you this PDF ahead of time in case you forget.
