Car desk vs leaving by transfer
AirportDepartures treats car hire as an exit option after landing — not a full rental magazine. If you will park once at the hotel and stay put, skip the desk and open the meet-and-greet guide instead.
When the desk wins
- Multi-stop crete itinerary after HER
- Remote beaches or villages with weak taxi coverage
- You accept deposit, insurance and fuel rules on GoFleet before paying
Local FAQ
When is a car better than transfers on eastern Crete?
When you will combine beaches, Knossos day trips and mountain villages in one stay. Single-resort stays can transfer in and rent later.
HER vs CHQ for car hire?
Pick the airport that matches your first hotel. One-way HER↔CHQ rentals exist but add cost — compare on GoFleet before you assume a free drop.
