Returning a rental at AJF? Use the Rental Car Parking zone.
This is the designated rental car parking area directly by the Main Terminal at Al-Jawf International Airport (AJF). It sits in the same forecourt zone as other terminal-side parking, but is marked for rental agency vehicles and returns. If you’ve already rented in Al-Jawf and just need to hand the car back before a flight, this is the spot you aim for.
AJF is a small field, so the Rental Car Parking area is only a short walk from the Main Terminal entrance — think a couple of minutes from parking bay to check-in doors. Signage on the drive in can be sparse, so keep your eye out for rental company logos and any “rental return” markings near the terminal-side parking rows.
This is a simple surface lot setup, not a multi-level garage, and it primarily serves day-of-departure returns rather than long-stay parking. You pick up and drop off in the same general zone, with each rental company assigning specific rows or marked spaces within the shared Rental Car Parking area. Check your contract or the key pouch, as some agencies print the exact return row or bay number.
Services are basic here: no dedicated fuel pumps, car wash, or on-site kiosk in the parking rows themselves. Most rental counters operate inside the Main Terminal building, usually close to arrivals and baggage claim, so expect to park the car, lock it, note the stall, and then walk 1–3 minutes inside to hand over keys or paperwork at the desk.
Practical tip: take a quick phone photo of the odometer, fuel gauge, and the parked car in its bay before you walk into the Main Terminal; it speeds up any end-of-rental questions with the agency staff.
