Default One Way Car Hire - Portugal to Spain

Hi All

I have searched the Forum for advice on one way car hire from Faro to Sevilla but to no avail. Can anyone advise on whether this is possible online? The quotes I have received appear to suggest an additional cost of E100's on top of the ordinary rental rates. Any advice welcome.

Best wishes
George

AurigaCrown works from Faro & Seville airport, I think there´s a additional € 30 for picking a car up in one place and leaving it in the other. www.aurigacrown.com*

* No commercial ties here!

Hi Jur,

I had tried their website, it appeared to permit it but like the other sites it always replied with a 'not available' or 'no esta disponible'. Probably will have to email/telephone them. Thanks - will be sure to visit the bistro on next visit

Typical for a Spanish company to have a website which does not work properly....

Eehm, what bistro?

Have hired in both Portugal & Spain and crossed the border with extra payment. I think the main problem is that Portugal & Spain have different Licence Plates ! If you do a drop off to the other country - a one way - it means that the company either have to find another customer doing the reverse one way, or return the car to the home country. So it's more of a problem. And trouble. The bigger people like AVIS and Hertz may quote you but additional costs could make it uneconomical.
Getting from Faro town to Seville can be done using the regular bus lines. Admittedly not many each day but seems to be the cheapest option.
For public transport info between Algarve and Seville look at:
