Find cheap holiday car hire deals

 

Book your car as soon as you have booked your flights and accommodation as even the most popular cars can sell out. If you arrive without a rental car pre-booked there may not be a car for you at all. 

 

 

Remember that rates booked in the UK are almost always cheaper than local rates so why not pre-book?

Shopping around

It is important to shop around to get the best deal and search the internet for fellow travellers comments on the company you would like to use.  The fares are cheaper if you’re travelling in a group, or if you pre-book online.

The best deals are in the UK
 

Most deals available in the UK will include insurance and local taxes. Some may also include free extra drivers and/or a 'no excess' benefit. Some companies permit one-way rentals, ideal for two-centre holidays.

Car class

People-carriers are very popular but when all of the seats are used there is not much luggage space, neither do most rental companies provide roof racks. Another option, consider that two smaller cars are often cheaper than one MPV.

 

Availability

 

Not all classes of car are available at all locations or offices. If you want a special car, maybe a Jeep, convertible or people-carrier for instance, check with the rental company/agent/broker where it may be available before booking flights or other travel.

 

Holiday car hire offices

Most major airports offer an 18 or 24 hours service, seven days a week. Some secondary airports may offer an 'out of hours' service for flights arriving after normal closing time, however, most rental offices work to normal office hours only and this includes ferry ports.
