Desks in the terminal, many firms off-site
A few car-hire companies have desks inside the terminal with on-site car pick-up. Many others are based outside the airport: a driver meets you in the arrival hall or you take a car-rental shuttle from the 'Other Buses' area, so the airport advises checking where the desk and the car actually are before reserving.

Stopping for more than 5 minutes in the drop-off lane at the departure entrance costs a fee. The P2 car park on the arrivals side is free for the first 30 minutes and P1 at departures for 15 minutes; unpaid parking must be settled within 48 hours of exiting.

Highland F-roads closed most of the year
The highland F-roads are usually closed from mid-September until June or July, so check umferdin.is before setting off. Not every 4WD suits them, and no insurance covers damage to a vehicle while crossing a river.

Speed limits and single-lane bridges
Unless signs say otherwise, the limit is 50 km/h in urban areas, 80 km/h on rural gravel roads and 90 km/h on rural paved roads. On the many single-lane bridges the limit is 50 km/h and the car closer to the bridge has right of way.

Lights always on, 0.2‰ alcohol limit
Headlights and taillights must be on at all times, all year round, and the automatic setting may not be enough. The blood-alcohol limit is 0.2‰, so you cannot drive even after one drink.
