About this location
Christchurch Airport (CHC) is the South Island's main gateway. Skip the queues at the big international counters — Nomado's nearby depot offers a fast shuttle, a quick handover and rental car rates that don't include the typical airport markup. Perfect for travellers heading to Queenstown, Wanaka, the West Coast or the MacKenzie Country.
We're a New Zealand owned and operated rental company. Our pricing is the same whether you pick up at the airport or in the city — no concession fees, no inflated 'airport rates'. Just simple, all-inclusive rental from $29/day.
Our depot sits minutes from the terminal. After landing, hop on our complimentary shuttle and you'll have your keys and be heading south in well under 30 minutes.
Pair our 4WD 7 seater Outlander with roof racks for a winter ski trip, or grab a fuel-efficient economy car for a longer Queenstown loop. Either way, unlimited kilometres are included.
