The airport’s facilities are adequate, and include car rental companies such as National Forli Airport. National’s customers can expect low rental rates, and a number of innovative services for their benefit.

National Car Hire is a company which has carved a niche for themselves in the corporate rental sector, and have over fifty years of experience, as they were established in 1947. In the 1970’s National helped pioneer the corporate-account business, and in 1987, they introduced the industry’s first comprehensive frequent-renter program. This program was and is still named as the Emerald Club, and many customers today still enjoy the services offered. In general, it is a program to facilitate easier reservations and rentals, in order to save the customer time and money. Some of the benefits include convenient e-receipts and the option of ‘car choice’, whereby the customer can quickly choose their vehicle and drive away without the need to fill out any lengthy paperwork. National is part of a strategic global alliance with Europcar, and together these two companies form the largest car rental network in the world.

Up until 2011 National was also the ‘Official Car Rental Company of the PGA Tour and Champions Tour. They were chosen for this prestigious role in 1944. All National’s vehicles are of the highest quality, and are only of the latest models to ensure their customers the utmost in safety, style and comfort, and many are adorned with excellent features, such as air conditioning, power steering, ABS brakes, anti-lock brakes, driver and passenger air bags and cruise control. Vehicles from National, and most of the other Forli Airport car hire companies are hired by category, rather than by specific make and model. However, should a specific car be required, National will do their best to ensure that you receive the vehicle requested.

At Forli Airport, National’s cars may be similar to the Fiat Panda Dynamic 1.2 and Ford Fiesta Titanium 1.2 in the Economy category and the Fiat Stilo SW Active 1.9 in the Compact Wagon category.

National’s cars may include insurance in their rental quotes, but if they don’t it is wise to arrange theft protection and collision damage waiver for the duration of the rental period.
