Top tips for hiring a car at Kuching airport

  • Since the Kuching International Airport (KCH) is essentially the gateway to northwestern Borneo, booking a car rental at Kuching Airport is an ideal way to begin your Malaysian adventure. With a Kuching Airport car rental, you can conveniently access Kuching, the dynamic capital of the Malaysian state of Sarawak. You can also travel along the Sarawak coastline or venture further inland to the national parks. With a Kuching Airport car rental, you can explore this fascinating corner of Malaysia according to your own schedule and agenda.
  • If, for any reason, you have to wait before you can collect your car rental at Kuching Airport, the airport has many amenities and services that will help you pass the time both pleasantly and constructively. At the Kuching Airport, passengers can access the Plaza Premium Lounge by paying at the door. The airport also has currency exchange services and ATMs, duty free, restaurants and shops, baby care facilities, massage chairs, prayer rooms, and more.
  • Once you have completed your paperwork and collected your rental car keys from the agency in the Arrivals Hall, you can find your Kuching car rental by exiting the Kuching Airport Terminal and crossing the road lanes to the Kuching Airport Parking Lot. Most car rental companies park their cars in the lanes toward the back of the lot.
  • In Malaysia, children between the ages of roughly 7 and 12 need to ride in a booster seat with a seatbelt. Children about 4 to 7 need a booster seat with a 5-point harness. Toddlers from approximately 15 months to 4 years need to sit in a forward-facing infant seat and newborn babies up to the age of 18 months need to sit in a rear-facing infant seat. Since car rental companies can run out of children's seats and may not have them available when you need them, it is important to reserve child seats with your car rental company as early as you can.
  • Book your car hire at Kuching airport at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

FAQs about hiring a car at Kuching airport

  • Where can I find the counters for car rental at Kuching Airport?

    You can find the agency counters for Kuching Airport car rentals on Level 1 in the Arrivals Hall. Here, you will find companies such as Hertz, Avis, Europcar, and Thrifty. You can also find a number of other car rental services, including RG Car Rental, KA Rental, EPTA, Hornbill Tours, Kuching Holiday, Flexi, Ami, and Golden System. To make your time in Malaysia as convenient and efficient as possible, you should make your Kuching Airport car rental reservation in advance of arriving in Malaysia.

  • How old do I have to be in order to book a car rental at Kuching Airport?

    It depends. Most car rental agencies at the Kuching Airport will require that you are at least 23 years old. Most of these agencies also have a maximum driver age of 65. However, this is not the case for every agency. For example, Europcar requires that you be at least 18 years old and they have no maximum driver age. When you make your reservation for your car rental at Kuching Airport, confirm with the car rental customer service representative what the age restrictions are. Also, there may be an additional fee for either being a young driver or a senior driver. You may be assessed this fee if you are under 23 or over 65.

  • What documentation do I need in order to book a Kuching Airport car rental?

    Most car rental agencies at Kuching Airport will require a US-issued driver's license that has your photograph on it. This license will most likely need to have been valid for at least 2 years. Along with your license, you also need an International Driving Permit (IDP). You also must show a valid passport. You also need to have five photographs of passport size. Since car rental agency requirements can differ slightly, confirm with your particular car rental agency exactly what documentation you need to show when you collect your car rental at Kuching Airport.
