What sites do you use to book your car hire?

[act1980]

I am just trying to find the best deal as we all are

 

[Neoshoegal]

Most of the time: usrentacar.co.uk

Also used netflights

For car hire best thing to do is find the best deal you can then post details (dates, airport, size & best price you find) then if anyone sees a better deal they will let you know.

My last trip was with Expedia/Hertz (price error £197 for 25 nights)

Next weeks trip is with Holiday Autos/Dollar got great price in their Jan sale.

August Best I have seen so far is USrentacar/Dollar but paid an extra £10 so I can cancel and book elsewhere if a better deal comes up.

No one company is best, they all have offers & errors from time to time

carhire3000.com we found really good when we used them last year.
They are just a rental broker for each airport and were cheaper than booking direct

Hi guys,

Thanks for your replies.

The best quote I have had so far is: Pick up and dropping off at Miami Airport.

£337 - Dollar (Economy)
£580 - Dollar (Convertable)

Can't decide what vehicle type we are going to get, will be based on what we decide we want to pay

The price is for 3 weeks from 17th Oct - 7th Nov 2011

Thanks

Busy at work but a quick look around shows

Convertible at £522 with extra driver free, possible 6.5% cashback via Quidco but some are sucessful some are not.
http://www.alamo.co.uk/brits (You would go thru Quidco 1st then change then ending to /brits) if it works final cost would be £488

Economy with Expedia £311.94 less 10% Quidco = £280.75 http://www.quidco.com/expedia/

Thanks for the help. I am picking up from Miami airport and the prices there seem to be more expensive that Orlando airport for some reason?

 

[wayneg]

Never knew Miami was much more than MCO or TPA. Quite a difference.

We've booked with them this year, also get 7% via Quidco

We found this out this year, perhaps car theft in central Miami is higher who knows!

20 days 4x4 pickup and collect from Miami in April £475 before cashback

I didn't know it was more expensive picking up in Miami, that said though the difference is still cheaper than flying into Orlando when we wanted to go.

Massively so for us....

 

[act1980]

Can I ask who you are flying with?
We haven't booked our flights yet but BA and Virgin are crazy prices atm!

 

[Zeebs]

Sorry I just realised I meant to come back and answer this one and never did.

We are going with Virgin but we used some airpoints and did Miles + money.

Expedia is showing Delta direct for £577 or indirect for less.

I am not sure if this is good or not? As we have only been one time before and we used airpoints for that trip also.
