About the SNA Rental Car Center
The John Wayne Airport SNA Rental Car Center makes it easy to pick up and return a car right at the airport in Orange County, California. On-airport counters are on the Arrivals level between Terminals A, B, and C, and vehicles are staged in Parking Structures A2 and B2. Most travelers can walk from baggage claim to the counters and to their cars in a few minutes. No on-airport shuttle is needed.
The center is connected to the terminals by pedestrian bridges and clearly marked walkways. This walkable setup reduces curbside traffic, lowers emissions compared with circulating shuttles, and speeds up the start of your trip.
SNA supports modern rental operations, including mobile reservations, contactless pickup, and quick return lanes. EV charging is available in the airport parking structures, and several rental brands offer electric and hybrid vehicles.
Whether you are a business traveler or visiting Orange County for leisure, the SNA Rental Car Center offers quick access to major roads like I-405, SR-55, and SR-73 so you can get on the road fast.
