Q: Is it possible to find car rental services for disabled people in Barcelona?
A: El Prat is a wheelchair-friendly airport equipped with lifts, ramps and it offers parking spaces reserved for disabled people, as well as special meeting points for these visitors. However, not all of the car rental companies can provide accessible vehicles. Even those companies offering such facilities only have very few accessible cars (for additional information – Car Rental at Barcelona Airport and Accessibility in Barcelona).
Therefore, it is strongly suggested to do a research on wheelchair-friendly car rental companies before your trip. It is also advisable to pre-book one as soon as possible (for additional information – Renting a Car from Barcelona Airport in Advance).
If you want to drive the car yourself, the chances of finding an accessible car are even lower; however, there are a few companies who operate a number of vehicles using hand control. Generally, they do not require any extra payment for this kind of facility.
If you are interested in parking lots reserved for travellers with mobility problems, they are available at both of the terminals. At Terminal 2, they are situated in PA Car Park and in PC Car Park (for additional information – Car Rental at Barcelona Airport – Parking Lots).
