Luton Airport car hire (LTN) — compare partners
Luton is north London's low-cost hub and prices its car hire accordingly — it is routinely the cheapest of the London airports for a week-long rental. On-airport desks are supplemented by off-airport providers on the bordering hotel forecourts, which can save another 10–15% in exchange for a short shuttle transfer. The M1 is minutes away at Junction 10, putting the Midlands, Milton Keynes and the Chilterns within easy reach, and central London is roughly an hour by road outside peak times. Luton sits outside the ULEZ zone. If you are connecting onward by rail rather than driving straight out, the DART shuttle links the terminal to Luton Airport Parkway station in a few minutes.

Tips for LTN car hire
- Book ahead. Pre-booking 2+ weeks out typically cuts 20–30% off airport-counter walk-in rates.
- Check off-airport providers. A 5-minute shuttle can knock another 15% off; counters are right by arrivals at most UK airports.
- Insurance. Decline counter-upsell; standalone annual excess-waiver policies typically save £100+ over a year of UK rentals.
