A car hire at Luqa Malta International Airport is a great way to see this location. Malta is actually made up of three islands - the main island of Malta itself, and the two islands of Goza and Comino. A car ferry connects Malta with Goza and so the most efficient way to see the islands is by hiring a car. Public transport is available but to reach the small villages, towns, and out of the way locations it is much simpler and more comfortable if you have your own transport. It also makes your trip more flexible and saves a lot of time. Ensure you have air conditioning too, as it gets very hot and is one of the main advantages of choosing a hire car over public transport.
UK drivers will be happy to hear that, despite being in the European Union and located between Sicily and North Africa, Maltese drivers drive on the left, just like in the UK. Consequently, for these drivers looking for car hire at Luqa Malta International Airport, this makes their hire car trip that little bit simpler and easier from the beginning.
Returning your car to Malta International is very straightforward. Simply follow the signs for the airport and as you approach you will see signs for the car hire centre. The car park is very close to the main terminal building and you simply park in a bay there and approach the relevant car hire desk to return your keys. During out-of-office hours there will be a drop-box to leave your key. The car will be checked the following morning. It’s a 2min walk from there to the Departures Terminal. It’s advised to refuel your car before you return it, as this will work out a lot cheaper.
Most of the car hire companies operate from 09:00 to 20:00 Monday to Friday and until 13:00 on the weekends. Staff will be on hand during these times to advise you on all aspects of your car hire, so if you prefer to deal with staff face-to-face then ensure that you arrive during these hours.

French, Jan 2022

The guy talked me out of the deal I had set up with Priceline. I got charged double the price for a car that was smaller than I originally rented. I got charged €400 for losing a license plate that cost normal people €40 to replace. Bottom line I will never do business with Hertz again!!!

Anonymous, Mar 2020

Pros:

The car itself was fine. Staff were terrible.

Cons:

1. DO NOT BUY the Kayak insurance. When we arrived we assured them that we had comprehensive insurance. But they refused to accept it without putting a 10K hold on our card. Who is going to accept it. Another 236 euros on our way, we got the car etc. We returned early due to COVID. We asked the person if she could prorate our money - or at least the insurance she had made us buy. She flat out refused saying it was part of the contact. Luckily it looked like Hertz the company did the right thing and refunded our credit card, but the people at Hertz in Malta airport have a seriously bad attitude which is too bad because the rest of the Maltese people were delightful.

The required deposits even for a single day rental are completely ridiculous, for that money I can simply buy a used car or motorcycle and have it for an entire year or more.

Scam artists. Tried to charge me $1500 euros deposit and a $150 euro fee for dropping off while closed. We walked away. We request a full refund.
