Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Cointrin car reservation?
No need to worry. You should be eligible for a full refund if you notify us at least six hours prior to picking up the car. Your confirmation contains information about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all reservations result in a refund though, so it's a good idea to go over the cancellation policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Cointrin?
Dash around in a nifty mini, splash out on a premium ride or go for something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it's hard to go past a compact vehicle — the top pick in Cointrin. They're a snap to handle and park, fuel-efficient and a good idea if you're cruising around big cities. A step up from economy, you can expect a bit more room and comfort at a price that won't break the bank.
Where can I go on a road trip from Cointrin?
Cointrin has plenty to keep you busy, but don't restrict yourself to just the one place. Arrange a set of wheels and hit the road to discover what else awaits in the surrounding area. Here are a few places to choose from:

  • You'll discover Basel Zoo and many other amazing sights in Basel. From Cointrin, it's about 193 kilometres away.
  • Located 48 kilometres away, Lausanne is also popular with travellers. Set aside time to get to Olympic Museum while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love visiting this colourful city.
  • Rhine Falls is 257 kilometres from Cointrin and is one of the region's most breathtaking nature spots. Pack a picnic lunch and enjoy the fresh air.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Cointrin?
Usually, you need to be 20 years of age and over in Cointrin. Be aware that most companies will charge a young driver fee. Check before you book, as rules may differ between rental car suppliers. Bear in mind that if you're planning to rent a luxury ride or a larger car like an SUV, drivers may need to be older than 20.
What do you need to rent a car in Cointrin?
While rules may differ between rental car outlets in Cointrin, the essentials are a valid driver's licence and a credit card. You don't need to take out the company's auto insurance. However, proof of your own coverage may be necessary.
What side of the road do you drive on in Cointrin?
Traffic drives on the right and passes on the left in Switzerland — the same as in the U.S. Road-tripping around Cointrin won't be exactly like home, though. It's a good idea to acquaint yourself with the local traffic rules.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Cointrin?
Check out our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip details and then lock in your perfect ride. Whether you're staying put in Cointrin or venturing beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at a fantastic rate.
Where can I find a Cointrin car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car rental companies that are found in Cointrin. They often have different age policies. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25, take note that additional costs may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before booking your rental.
