Collecting your car at Fès-Saïss

Fès-Saïss airport lies about 15 km from Fez, roughly 20 minutes by road in normal conditions. Keys are handed over on arrival: the agency meets you in the hall with a sign with the driver’s name, after baggage reclaim.

The return works the same way: bring the car back to the airport car park at the agreed time, leaving a margin before check-in. The condition report is done on the spot, with the agency.

Terminals and access

Fès-Saïss has T1. Partner agencies serve every terminal: tell yours to the agency from your account if you know it, or simply give it your flight and it will work it out.

From Fez-Saïss airport to the medina, Meknes and the Middle Atlas

Fez-Saïss airport lies about fifteen kilometres from Fez, on the Saïs plain. The road into town is direct; it is the busy entry into Fez at rush hour that makes the drive longer.

You cannot drive through the Fez el-Bali medina: park at its edge, near a gate such as Bab Boujloud, and carry on on foot. The real value of an airport car hire is around the city: Meknes is about sixty kilometres from Fez, Ifrane sixty-five, Volubilis seventy.

Loccor lists cars from local agencies in Fez: the city page shows what is actually available, with the final price before you book.

What to have ready on arrival

Bring the main driver’s licence and an ID card or passport. The deposit depends on the agency: some cars are rented with a deposit, others with none. When one is required, it is paid at the counter and returned when the car comes back; the amount is shown on each vehicle page and Loccor never collects it. The form of the deposit is set by the agency.

A foreign licence in the Latin alphabet is accepted; otherwise bring an international permit. Walk around the car with the agent and photograph any scratches before setting off: that is your best protection when handing it back.

Can I rent a car and collect it directly at Fès-Saïss airport in Morocco?

Yes. Partner agencies hand over the keys in the arrivals hall. Some ask for a few hours’ notice, to be stated when booking; the details are on each vehicle page.

What happens if my flight is delayed?

A delay does not cancel the pickup, but the agency has to be told: the booking form has no “flight number” field. Message the agency from your account as soon as you know your new arrival time — the conversation opens automatically once the booking is confirmed.

Are there tolls between the airport and Fez?

It depends on the route. Moroccan motorways are tolled, payable in cash or by card at the barriers. Keep some cash on you when you land, before changing money in town.

Does renting at the airport cost more?

Some agencies add an airport delivery fee, others do not. On Loccor the price shown is the price you pay: any fees appear on the vehicle page before you book, not at the desk.

What is the Fès-Saïss airport code?

FEZ. It is the three-letter IATA code printed on your boarding pass and on the arrivals boards. The airport is about 15 km from Fez, around 20 minutes by road in normal traffic.
