Hiring a car at Karpathos Island National Airport (AOK)

Karpathos Island National Airport (AOK) is the only regional airport that directly serves the island of Karpathos. It should also be noted that this airport is one of the most remote within the entire country of Greece and it is actually much closer to Crete. Therefore, people will often arrive here to experience the magnificent beaches as well as the many ancient villages that dot the landscape. Local transportation to and from the island is mainly accomplished by small chartered flights, as well as ferry services. Karpathos Airport is found on the south side of the island, within an area known as Afiartis. Some seasonal carriers that travel here include Austrian Airlines, Olympic Air and Vueling. Local Enterprise Rent-A-Car offices are found within the main terminal of the airport. The nearest public landmark is Michaliou O Kipos Beach. This area can generally reached by taxi, bus or car. Traffic here tends to be light throughout the majority of the year, although minor rush-hour conditions may occur during the tourist season. Arriving at Enterprise early in the morning can help to avoid such conditions.

To rent a car from Enterprise Rent-A-Car in the United States and Canada, you will need the following:

  • To be 25 years old 
  • A valid driving licence with a photo
  • A photo ID (for example: a driving licence or passport)
  • Credit or debit card (check the acceptable forms of payment at the location you're renting from)

Some locations may require additional information, including but not limited to: 

  • An International Driving Permit (IDP): If the licence is written in a language or characters different from those of the country of rental, an IDP is also required. Renters are advised to check whether local authorities require foreign drivers to present an International Driving Permit to avoid the risk of potential fines. Renters with licences from countries that are not part of the International Driving Permit Agreement should carry a certified translation.
