Hiring a car at Newcastle International Airport (NCL)

Situated just six miles from Newcastle city centre, Newcastle International Airport handles just under 5 million passengers a year. As the north’s second busiest airport, it attracts travellers from across the north of England and southern Scotland. Although Newcastle has just one major long-haul route to Dubai, its international carriers fly to all major European destinations. It also handles domestic routes to and from southern England and the Channel Isles.

The airport started life in 1935 as Woolsington Aerodrome. With the increase in foreign package holidays during the late 1960s and high investment in infrastructure, the airport finally came of age in the 1970s, when it was re-categorised and renamed Newcastle International Airport. To help clients reach their final destination as smoothly as possible, the nearest Enterprise-Rent-A-Car office is a couple of minutes’ walk away at Car Rental Village, Woolsington, Newcastle. Exit the terminal by the international arrivals door. Follow the signs for the medium stay parking area, and you will see Enterprise’s welcoming office.
