Car Hire at Cagliari Airport
Sardinia is a fascinating island to explore, and to get to those out of the way places off the tourist track and be able to do so at your own pace means that you need to hire a car.
If you are planning a multi-location holiday in Sardinia then having a hire car at your disposal will give you far more freedom and flexibility. The Carlo Felice dual carriageway travels from north to south of the island, connecting Cagliari to the main towns. But if the place you are staying is a way from Cagliari Airport or in one of the more rural areas then it is often more convenient and economical to hire a car from the airport to cut down on transfer costs.

Cagliari Airport Car Hire
When you rent a car make sure that you take out full insurance cover. Many car rental companies offer all inclusive cover which can often leave you with a
difference of several hundred euros if you are unfortunate enough to damage the car or have an accident. You can purchase annual insurance cover which can take care of this, so make sure you check it out before your travel.
Another good tip is to rent a car with a GPS so that you will be able to find your way around easily as soon as you leave Cagliari Airport.
Remember that traffic police (polizia stradale) can make an on the spot fine if you make any traffic offence. At the moment they are clamping down hard on speed driving (which is the 'national sport' of the Italians). And do not flash your headlights as this can also incur a fine.
