Rental car loyalty programs are free to join,so register for any programs you might use in the future.My favorite car rental loyalty program benefit is that I can skip the counter and head right to my reserved car.Some programs allow members to choose a car from the available pool.(36)D

Do you really need a rental car from the airport?For instance,if your flight arrives at night,take a free hotel shuttle and pick up your car the next day.The car rental location might even be at your hotel or can pick you up (or deliver the car to you).(37)A
υ(38)F
For a city trip,you may not even need a rental car.Research whether mass transit(運(yùn)輸),taxi,Uber,bike rental,and other transportation methods will suffice(足夠).Parking charges at downtown hotels may cost more than your car rental rate,so it may be doubly in your favor to give up a rental car.In some locations,a bike might be more efficient and economical than a car.

(39)E In conjunction(結(jié)合)with your personal discount code,you may also find a last-minute rate,free rental day,or other promotion.My favorite annual travel deal is driving a car one-way out of Florida after Spring Break with rates as low as $1per day.

Major car rental companies might have an associated discount brand at your rental location,like Firefly for Hertz.(40)C An independent or smaller local agency may fit your needs; like A1or Lucky Owl in Honolulu.Many people prefer to check rates on Hotwire and Priceline,especially for last-minute rentals.
A.Rental rates are likely lower away from the airport,plus you might save the cost of an entire rental day.
B.I use discount-finding websites to track my car reservations.

E.Check car rental company websites for current specials.
F.Skip the Car
