Rent a Car at the Airport
Several reliable car rental companies operate at CID. You'll find names like Alamo, Enterprise, and Hertz all ready to equip you with a vehicle that suits your needs. Whether you're looking for a compact car to zip around the city or a spacious SUV for an adventure in the rugged outdoors, you'll find a wide selection available.
Gas Stations Near Airport
As soon as you've picked up your rental, there are numerous gas stations near the airport for you to fuel up for your journey. Look out for brands like BP and Speedway located within a 5-mile radius from the airport.
Driving Routes
With your rental car, you’re only a short drive away from exciting places like Iowa City, home to the University of Iowa, or the picturesque Amana Colonies. If you're into outdoor adventures, drive to Lake Macbride State Park, or if history is your thing, the Herbert Hoover Presidential Library and Museum is but a jaunt away by car.
Tips for Traveling in Iowa
While driving in Iowa is generally relaxed, make sure to be aware of the local rules and regulations to ensure a smooth trip.
- The speed limit on rural highways is usually 55-70 miles per hour but city areas might have lower limits.
- Keep an eye out for deer crossing signs. Iowa has a high population of wildlife and deer can unexpectedly cross roads.
- Remember that all passengers must wear seat belts while the vehicle is moving.
Local Climate & Currency
Iowa has a temperate climate with cold winters and hot, humid summers. Remember to check the local weather forecast before your journey and pack clothing appropriate for the forecasted weather.
As in the rest of America, the currency is the US dollar. Credit and debit cards are accepted almost everywhere, but it's always a good idea to have a small amount of cash at hand for smaller stores or tipping.
Enjoy Your Stay
No matter your destination, the Eastern Iowa Airport provides a first step to many adventures waiting in the state. With the open road beneath your wheels, there's nothing stopping you from exploring everything Iowa has to offer. Enjoy your travels!
