I've got a whole bunch of 1 week rentals coming up starting next week and I find that now the cost of a car at Manchester Airport has shot up way beyond the price of the city centre branch. Why ? what's changed?

So now I will have to go with my luggage into the city, to a branch that has much shorter opening hours, or else pay a hugely inflated rate

In addition:
Whereas previously a 30 day rental ( with its mileage restriction ) was cheaper than 3 10-day reservations (unlimited mileage) now the exact opposite is the case.
Why on earth would you have such a price structure.

Each 10 days now I'll give back the car, and have another one instead, how can inconveniencing me possibly help your bottom line?

Going back to the sixt UK site today I now find that the prices are in Euros.

You're forcing me to look again at your rivals
Can you send me the booking parameters for your long terms versus short.
Also screenshot of Euros price
