How to return my AUTOWAY rental car in Chania Airport – CHQ?
- Unload passengers at CHQ Departures.
• Park the AUTOWAY car at Greece Air Parking and hand over the key.
• Take the free shuttle back to the terminal.
This guide gives you a quick, simple walkthrough of how to return your AUTOWAY Car Rental vehicle at Chania Airport in Crete, Greece. It follows the same instructions sent by email, now shared publicly for easy access. Since no Car Hire company in Greece is allowed to deliver or collect vehicles at the airport exit doors, AUTOWAY – like all Rental companies – uses the organised parking areas just outside the airport area.
First, stop at Departures!
You can unload passengers and luggage. This avoids carrying heavy bags from the parking area and makes the whole process smoother for everyone. This is the parking lot policy. Only the driver can be transported back later on due to the p arking lot, unfortunately.
Once everyone is safely out, you drive the AUTOWAY vehicle alone to the nearby return point.

The official AUTOWAY return takes place at Greece Air Parking.
Go through the narrow entrance, and meet the parking attendant at the kiosk. Hand over your key and let them know you’re returning an AUTOWAY vehicle. This completes the Rental handover and keeps the process aligned with local Insurance and airport guidelines.
📍Just one minute from the terminal.
The final step is the quick shuttle back to Departures.
On demand. After parking, ask for the free minibus, and it drops you right at the terminal entrance. The entire routine takes roughly five minutes and is one reason AUTOWAY remains a Top Rated Car Hire choice in Greece. If you need help at any point, call or WhatsApp AUTOWAY at +302831050701.
