Discounted Special Collections (Adrenaline/Prestige/etc)
So I just realized that most of the rates on the Hertz France include:
Happy luxury shopping!
Total Estimate Charge includes
Airport concession fee recovery
Additional Driver Fee
Loss Damage Waiver
THE FIRST TANK OF GAS IS INCLUDED IN RATE
Tax and other charges
Liability Insurance Supplement
Vehicle Licensing Cost Recovery
Customer Facility Charge:
California Tourism Commission Assessment
Could be the quick decline of the Euro against the USD that resulted in the rate difference, but I booked for roughly USD$50 less than I would have had I booked in the US – plus it comes with almost every insurance, free tank of gas, and includes taxes. Pretty sweet deal considering LDW is US$20/day by itself. Quick search looked like it applied to all of the vehicles. Airport concession fee recovery
Additional Driver Fee
Loss Damage Waiver
THE FIRST TANK OF GAS IS INCLUDED IN RATE
Tax and other charges
Liability Insurance Supplement
Vehicle Licensing Cost Recovery
Customer Facility Charge:
California Tourism Commission Assessment
Happy luxury shopping!

I hope you were actually in France when you made this reservation ?

I was in France, so I guess I lucked out there. Although no one asked any questions, keys were in the car, drove out and walked away from the vehicle when it was parked. Could be LAX that no one ever asks any questions.
True, this isn't the BEST way to get a rate. However, it seems much easier then those that are printing up fake business cards for hotel discounts.
I do think that the real criminals are people that charge different rates to people of different geographic locations. This isn't a case of corporate loyalty like a business discount, this is European people deserve better value for....no reason?
