Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Cairns and Barrier Reef car reservation?
When you cancel at least six hours in advance of the collection time, the majority of prepaid rentals qualify for a total refund. However, not every one is eligible for this, so it's important to familiarise yourself with the rental agreement. Read through your confirmation for the details or visit our Customer Service Portal for more information.
What types of cars can I rent in Cairns and Barrier Reef?
Premium, full-size, intermediate... The choice is yours! However, compact models are the most popular in Cairns and Barrier Reef. If you want something affordable and small, but not too small, this category of hire car is a smart choice. Navigating traffic-filled streets will be a cinch in one of these. Compact cars are a little roomier compared to economy models and are well-suited to solo travellers, couples and families on a budget.
How do I find the best car hire deals in Cairns and Barrier Reef with Expedia?
Expedia makes it easy and fast to compare costs, offers and rental providers, and to check customer ratings. Bundle your Cairns and Barrier Reef car hire with hotel or flight bookings and you can make even bigger savings.
What do you need to rent a car in Cairns and Barrier Reef?
Most hire companies will ask for these two things — a current driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you'd prefer to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
Can I hire a car for a month or longer in Cairns and Barrier Reef?
You can. Expedia partners with reputable providers that offer long-term rentals for all categories of cars. Check out our long-term car rental deals and explore every corner of Cairns and Barrier Reef — or far beyond!
Where can I find a Cairns and Barrier Reef hire car if I am younger than 25?
Some Cairns and Barrier Reef outlets will rent to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so be prepared to do your homework. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
