Skiathos may not be even on the minds of many tourists when it comes to planning an exotic holiday vacation. This tiny Greek island not only has a most unique name; it can offer a most unique and delightful holiday resort option for one and all. It is one of the Northern Sporades groups of islands on the Aegean Sea close to Pelion Peninsula and Skopelos Island. Skiathos Airport serves this island with a plethora of facilities as more tourists are discovering this extraordinary idyllic resort.

Meet-and-Greet Services

Although this island is relatively small compared to other Greek islands, Skiathos is well equipped with the best of tourist facilities across the island and even at its airport. There are several reliable local car hire providers on this island even if not all have a counter at the airport. Most car rental firms are located in the town centre at strategic locations. However, innovation and good customer services prevail with professional car rental services offering excellent meet-and-greet services at the airport that have car rental representatives waiting for the arrival of travellers outside the arrival hall. These customer representatives come to the airport with the preferred car models parked at the designated parking lot or outside the terminus. This kind of service requires a pre-booking of cars prior to travel. Local companies adopt this meet-and-greet practice as it is impractical to have their fleet of cars parked at the small airport space.

Online Bookings

With an car hire, travellers arriving at Skiathos Airport are assured of their requested car for use. This is a safer measure of securing the desired wheels for travel while on foreign soil. Before travellers board the plane for Skiathos, a confirmed rental with a reliable local provider ensures a smooth procedure at the meet-and-greet session; unfamiliar procedures in any car hire can be ironed out prior to arrival.

Any type of cars in the fleet can be booked online via the company’s website from anywhere. It could be a Honda, Toyota or Lexus although a luxury Lincoln or a local brand can be requested depending on the budget of the traveller. Some travellers may prefer a jeep or 4-wheel drive to check out the less trodden path around the island as there are majestic mountains to explore. A professional website would display relevant and important information to assist travellers with a smooth online booking of cars before touching down at Skiathos Airport.
