There’s more to renting the car than just reserving it and paying for it, to make sure that you get the best deal follow these steps and tips.
Before you do anything else, locate around four car rental specialists and write down their numbers, you can use the internet for this because it is quick and easy. If you are not careful, it is easy to miss the best deal especially when there are a great many to choose from.
There is always a short term deal going on so don’t forget to ask and also check the availability of the car you want plus pick up conditions etc. One point worth checking when you contact the car rental office is whether they are have any arrangements with airlines or hotels where a further discount may be available.
Choose a pickup point; find one that is near you so it won’t be any hassle, some car rental companies pay for the cab ride you have to take, some pick you up at your home or at the airport to take you to your rental. It’s nice having a large car, the comfort can’t be beat but it comes at a cost so if you are on a budget, stick to what you need.
Try to choose a car rental company with a low or free reservation policy as this is normally an extra if you want them to hold a particular type of vehicle for you.
Car rental doesn’t have to be expensive and if you are looking to keep the cost down here are some more ideas which may help.
Check for vehicle upgrades at no extra charge; alternatively, pick your car up just as the office opens.
If you want a free upgrade, then there is a very good chance that you will get one if you are early because the car rental office will be waiting for most of their economy fleet to be returned.
I have always found the best place to pre book the car of my choice is the internet and it is also the best place to get special offers. There are companies online where all you have to do is give them your budget and they do the rest, so how easy is that.
Fill the gas tank before you return your car, car rentals will charge you, at an inflated price, the cost of the gas needed to fill the tank.
Fly-drive vacations are becoming more popular, also a rise in fly-drive plus hotel package where all you have to allow for is meals. Simple visit your travel representative or even try looking online.
Frequent flyer discounts are often accepted at rental companies against the cost of the car rental. If you don’t have much time left on your frequent flyer discount then this is better proposition.
Discounts and special deals are always there just waiting for someone to ask for them so what is the point in being shy about it.
