Start with the accommodation handover details
Save the property address and its parking instructions before setting off. A hotel entrance, garage entrance and map pin may be in different places. If you are tired after a flight, keep the first journey straightforward and leave sightseeing stops for a later day.

A situation worth thinking through
A property in a historic area may provide a separate parking location. Navigate to that agreed location rather than following the nearest pin into a narrow street.
Airport collection: the wider picture
Prepare for the handover as well as the flight. Drive Cars Malta uses Park East Car Park at Malta Airport. Your reservation confirms the exact collection arrangements; a flight arrival time alone does not establish when you will reach the vehicle.
Build the pickup around the time you expect to finish baggage collection, then check what happens if your flight changes. Keep the reservation reference and contact number available offline. At handover, take time to understand the car, record its condition and confirm where it must be returned. Opening arrangements, waiting periods and charges must be checked against your selected booking rather than assumed from airport operating hours.
