Thanks for these. Still haven’t booked car for Greece this August, and it looked pretty bad when I checked a few weeks ago. Used Costco previously for a vacation package last year so maybe will work for car 🚘
I agree, last time we used Sixt and got a pretty good deal, but I think we have to be a bit more creative this time. Will definitely check out ALL the options. Thanks David!
Yes, Costco does have a rental car section under travel. Expedia has better prices. For a 1 week rental out of LAX in 3rd week of June 2024 they want $487 for a full size car. Expedia is about $200 less for similar. This does not include insurance, etc.
I tried some these sites and all led me down to clicky rabbit holes and.or cars only available at the airport. This week I need a rental right here in my home town 45 minutes north of the airport. Enterprise might cost me about 10% more than the cheapest at the airport, but they will pick me up at my house, too. Frankly, I no longer play the absolute lowest price. Not just car rentals, but generally. Too much head banging to save an amount of money that won't change my life. I have heard good things about Costco rentals.
Yeah, I don't necessarily search for the absolute lowest base price either. Following the ways I laid out to search on these sites should avoid any "rabbit holes."
I'm after a 13 day rental LAX to PHX, Check 24 don't do PHX but were $50 USD dearer than Carflexi, Priceline + Hotwire both + $200 USD, Costco + $600 USD, not cheap
Hi, according to the website, it's the other Phoenix Airport (aza) which they service, however we decided to book with Carflexi as they are tried and tested having used them nany times throughout the world, but thanks for your video
There are so many factors going into daily pricing, it could be that the search your looking at is for a shorter rental or for peak dates. I rent from enterprise fairly often and pretty much always have paid under $30 a day using the techniques I go over in my videos.

Worth a try, but for Greece you might find the other 4 more likely to help. Happy travels!

@@DavidGTravelsdo you still have to pay deposits for these sites?
@@bigmade7739usually your deposit depends on the location your renting from and your insurance.

Sometimes their prices are better, sometimes they’re worse. The key is to have a variety of search tools at your disposal.

How about the people want a cheap car only for a couple of days, Till their cars like me get repaired in the repair shop
Give these tools a try. Otherwise, repair shops have usually lent me a car for free in such situations.

Turo is really expensive but no deposit required.
How come enterprise charge like 65 dollars a day? 😂
I’ve rented from Enterprise for as little as $2 a day
@@DavidGTravels Are you talking about right now? Are you from the US?
Indeed I am, and I’m referring to multiple enterprise cars I’ve booked in the past few years.
@@DavidGTravels Ok. I'm talking about currently the rates are sky high
