Car Hire at Las Vegas Airport — Harry Reid International (LAS)

How to Collect Your Pre-Booked Hire Car at LAS

Pre-booking through eCarBookers before you travel is essential — your confirmation locks in your all-inclusive price, your zero-excess CDW cover for EU residents, and your vehicle class before you land. Harry Reid International Airport handled just under 55 million passengers in 2025 and has two main terminal buildings — Terminal 1 and Terminal 3. All car hire at LAS is collected via the consolidated Rent-A-Car Center, reached by a free shuttle from both terminals. Easirent operates from a nearby off-airport depot reached by a second free shuttle from the Rent-A-Car Center.

• Book through eCarBookers first: Your eCarBookers booking confirmation secures your all-inclusive price, your zero-excess CDW cover for EU residents, and your confirmed vehicle before you arrive. Without a pre-booking made through eCarBookers, you may not be covered under the same terms — always confirm your hire in advance to ensure your protection is in place from the moment you collect the keys.
• Step 1 — baggage claim: After landing, follow signs for Baggage Claim and collect your luggage before proceeding to the shuttle area. Do not go to the Rental Car Center without your bags — the route back is inconvenient once you are outside.
• Step 2 — shuttle to Rent-A-Car Center: From Terminal 1, the Rental Car Shuttle stop is located outside doors 10 and 11 on level 1. From Terminal 3, the Rental Car Shuttle stops are located outside doors 51–54 on the west end and doors 55–58 on the east end on level zero. Follow signs for Ground Transportation → Rental Car Shuttle — do not follow signs for Hotel Shuttles or Rideshare, which use different zones. The blue and white shuttle departs approximately every 5 minutes and reaches the Rent-A-Car Center in approximately 7 minutes. The shuttle is free.
• Step 3 — Easirent off-airport shuttle: Easirent is an off-airport supplier operating from 3176 W Martin Avenue, Las Vegas, NV 89118. At the Rent-A-Car Center, follow signs for Off Airport Rental Car Shuttles. Once at the bus stop, wait for the courtesy Easirent shuttle bus which loops the airport every 20 to 30 minutes. Off-site rental agencies have a pick-up location in the middle south lane upon exiting the main entrance of the Rent-A-Car Center. Allow 25 to 45 minutes total from landing to reaching the Easirent counter.
• What to bring: Your full driving licence, your original International Driving Permit (IDP), your eCarBookers booking confirmation, and a credit card in the main driver's name. Both your original licence and your original IDP are required at the counter — photocopies or scanned copies are not accepted. Ensure the name on your card matches your booking confirmation exactly. Your driving licence must have been held for at least one year before the hire date.
• Insurance at collection: Your zero-excess CDW cover is already built into the price confirmed at your eCarBookers booking — it applies to EU residents and comes directly from the supplier, not from a third-party insurer. There is nothing additional to purchase at the desk for main body damage cover. If minor damage occurs to the main body of the vehicle during your hire, there is no deductible to pay and no claim to submit.

Pick-Up, Drop-Off, and Refuelling at LAS

• Returning your vehicle: Return the car to Easirent and take the free shuttle back to the airport. The Rent-A-Car Center is located at 7135 Gilespie Street, Las Vegas, NV 89119 — follow airport signage directing you back to the Rent-A-Car Center and courtesy shuttles will promptly transport you back to your departure terminal. Allow at least 60 to 75 minutes before your flight — including the drive to the Easirent depot, the shuttle to the Rent-A-Car Center, the shuttle back to the terminal, check-in, and security. Las Vegas Airport security queues can be significant on Friday evenings and Sunday afternoons.
• Out-of-hours returns: Confirm out-of-hours return arrangements with Easirent at the time of collection. Do not assume a key drop is available without checking in advance. If your flight departs very early, clarify the procedure when you collect your vehicle.
• Nearest petrol stations for refuelling: Aim for stations 1 to 3 miles from LAS — use Tropicana Avenue and Russell Road as reliable corridors, as they keep you near the airport without forcing you into terminal-only traffic patterns. There are four 24-hour gas stations located within half a mile of the LAS Rent-A-Car Center, easily accessible from both I-15 and I-215. The most convenient options are stations along Tropicana Avenue and on Las Vegas Boulevard South near the Rent-A-Car Center — both are within 5 minutes of the Easirent depot on W Martin Avenue. Always refuel before reaching the depot and retain your receipt — some suppliers require it as proof of refuelling on return. Photograph the fuel gauge after refuelling and again at return as a precaution.

Getting from Las Vegas Airport to Key Destinations

Harry Reid International Airport is approximately 4 miles south of the Las Vegas Strip — one of the most conveniently located major airports in the United States. On leaving the Easirent depot on W Martin Avenue, I-215 provides quick access to the Strip and the wider Las Vegas valley road network.

• Las Vegas Strip: 4 miles north via Las Vegas Boulevard South or I-215, approximately 10 to 15 minutes in normal traffic. From W Martin Avenue, turn north onto Las Vegas Boulevard South and the Strip begins within minutes. The most direct and straightforward airport-to-Strip drive of any major US city.
• Downtown Las Vegas (Fremont Street): 6 miles north via I-15, approximately 15 minutes. Take I-215 west to I-15 northbound and follow signs for Downtown Las Vegas. Considerably less traffic than the Strip route and practical for visitors staying off the Strip.
• Red Rock Canyon: 20 miles northwest via I-215 and Charleston Boulevard (SR-159), approximately 30 minutes. A natural first stop for visitors arriving with time to spare before hotel check-in — the scenic loop drive opens at sunrise and is at its most dramatic in early morning light.
• Hoover Dam: 30 miles southeast via I-215 and US-93, approximately 40 minutes. Take I-215 east from the airport, then follow US-93 south towards Boulder City and the Nevada-Arizona border. No toll charges on this route. A practical first excursion for visitors who want to maximise their first day.
