Happy, have you tried pricing the rental using the IslandAir website? I've found very good car-rental rates there in the past, and there's no requirement of an IslandAir flight to take advantage of the car-rental rates. Are these rates for Hawaiian only, or good for visitors like us? The reason I ask is, there are always huge discounts for Hawaiians for hotels and cars but they have to show their IDs to get that kind of discounts. Budget is a winner with the rates even lower than govt leisure bcd. Avis is acceptable but Hertz and National are high. I am able to get a $202xx all in with a compact, $50 lower than Avia, and over $100+ lower than Hertz and National. I doubt I would find anything lower than Budget's. Enterprise has low rates in general without any discount code but their office closes 30 minutes earlier and there is no place on their website to input flight info! Their rates are still about 10% higher than Budget's using IslandAir's BCD. A BIG THANK YOU to you guv1976, your knowledge in many areas of travel is very much appreciated! |

The IslandAir rates are bookable by anyone; no restriction as to residence. But if you will be picking up the car before February 1, you might also try AWD H854900, which is posted on the Avis "Deals" page: it will get you a weekly rate on a compact at KOA for $159/week, plus taxes and fees, on some -- but not all -- dates in January. Not sure if that AWD code is stackable with any Avis coupons. |

A972200 for next Friday (12/3) on avis.com:
Booked one way SJC-SF Beach Street: $31 ($44ai) including 125 miles. $18 ($32ai) for one way SJC-SF Beach Street. |
Italy
Anyone ever figure out what N711304 is from?
Really, really good rates with that . . . I think it might be worth a shot. |
looking for a 1-week rental of the 4-door Jeep Wrangler for the end of Jan.
Using discounthawaiicarrental i was able to get $321 for the week ($428 all in). Are there any coupons that can be added to that? or other codes worth trying? Also, it seems they have the same car at budget for about $20 cheaper. is there a reason to prefer avis for a few more $ than budget? note, i will also need to add a safety seat for my son @ $65/week |
Looking for best Minivan Rental:
Pick-Up Canton, Ohio 6-17-11 and Returning at the same location 6-28-11. Would need unlimited Miles. Using the Avis Florida A113400 Code got me under 500.00 but that one is iffy whether they ask for something or not. Anyone find anything lower from any chain? |

Overall, Thrifty/Dollar seem to generally offer the cheapest rates -- usually with just the promos listed on their site (no codes) -- but they're still usually twice the price of a regular vehicle. |

It's very difficult to get a reasonable rate on a minivan these days. You can play around with all the codes here (and in the other car rental forums), but your best bet might be to reserve a cheaper car and negotiate at the counter!

Yeah, its expensive. The Florida Code got me below 500.00 but if they ask for something I'm screwed. |

Has anyone used A679100 was asked to produce proof? Gosh, the rates at Big Island are astronomically high! Most other AWDs produce a $300+ weekly compact all in price tag! |
europe
anyone have any 1 way codes for Europe? Looking to go Paris to Brussels 4-22 return 4-25. Avis CSR quoted around $475 using K444404(found upthread - CSR said it was for Marquee Chairman's Club??). I think we will take train from Paris to Brugges then get the car as it is only $99 ai for the same days. Does not have to be Avis though if anyone has other suggestions.
TIA, Foy |
