Two traps catch drivers out at Almeria Airport: strict credit card requirements at 7 of the 10 counters, and long desk waits. All 10 counters sit inside the terminal, but 7 refuse debit cards outright, so you need a credit card in the lead driver's name. Queues also vary sharply: Flizzr averages a 4-minute wait, whereas Dollar keeps drivers waiting 44 minutes. Standing in an airport queue for three quarters of an hour is an odd way to begin a seaside break.

Fuel is full tank out, full tank back on 100% of prices at Almeria Airport, so there is no fuel charge to be surprised by.
