Embarking on a journey to the enchanting city of Santa Fe, New Mexico? Your adventure begins at the Santa Fe Regional Airport, a gateway nestled between the scenic roads of Cerrillos and Rodeo, just a stone's throw from Jaguar Drive. Since its inauguration in 1941, the airport has served as a welcoming beacon to travelers. Formerly known as the Santa Fe County Municipal Airport until its rechristening in 2018, the terminal spans a cozy 11,000 square feet, having undergone a thoughtful renovation back in 1988. While the airport has seen modest expansions over the years, it faced a challenging moment in June 1972 when Frontier Airlines and Texas International Airlines ceased operations due to concerns over runway safety.
Today, the Santa Fe Airport is a bustling hub that captures the essence of the region's air traffic, managing roughly one-fifth of New Mexico's flights. Daily, three commercial round-trips grace its runways, alongside a vibrant array of private aircraft. The airport has played host to an eclectic mix of distinguished guests, from the former British Prime Minister David Cameron to Texas magnate Trevor Rees-Jones. It's not uncommon to spot Goldman Sachs executives or even Hollywood directors mingling in the terminal.
Yet, beneath its charm, the Santa Fe Airport harbors aspirations for growth. A vital runway enhancement is on the horizon, with plans to extend runway 2-20. This ambitious project boasts a budget of $4.7 million, generously funded by the Federal Aviation Administration. The airport is poised to launch the bidding process as soon as the FAA budget receives the green light from Congress, signaling a new chapter in its storied history.
Vehicles must be returned with the same amount of fuel as at the start of the rental. We offer a prepaid fuel option, allowing you to save time and get a better fuel price, as we will refuel the car for you. If you're unable to refuel or chose not to prepay for fuel and are late returning the vehicle, you can return it as is, and we will refill it for an additional service fee.
We have a variety of minivans and minibuses available, including the Mercedes Vito, Renault Trafic, and Peugeot Traveller. These 9-seater vehicles are popular among families and business travelers. To ensure availability, consider booking 1-2 months in advance.
You have the option to collect your car from one of our offices and drop it off at another location when your trip concludes. This convenient service enables you to tailor your travel plans without the need to backtrack.
The minimum rental period for basic cars is 1 day, and for minivans, it is 2 days. Please search for your selected dates to verify the exact minimum rental durations.
