Online Car Rental Booking
Online car rental booking has become an important aspect of a traveler's life, regardless of whether the travel purpose is for business or pleasure. No one wants to leave the house on an important business trip, vacation or short family trip without having a rental car handy. Some rental car companies, such as Hertz and Enterprise, maintain extensive websites for online bookings. These allow users to compare and reserve different vehicle types, usually up to 24 hours in advance. As with all reservations, there are a few things to keep in mind before choosing and booking a car.
Firstly, the rental price is always subjected to change and what you see online is just the price for renting the car, usually displayed as the daily rate. The actual cost is a lot more, considering the fuel charges, insurance and deposits.
Then, if you don't have comprehensive or at least sufficient vehicle insurance, you must inquire about temporary auto insurance from the car rental company. Different states have different rates for insurance and the tax related to it, but auto insurance is compulsory for rental cars. Knowing that any quoted price will not be the amount you get in your invoice is crucial to avoiding a shock after you reserve the car.
Another factor to consider is your requirement for a particular vehicle type. You can rent out all sorts of vehicles right from the affordable budget cars, to extravagantly expensive sedans. This depends on the occasion, number of people and your budget as well.
Remember to take account of the number of passengers, cargo and other factors, because it's best to reserve a car with the next highest capacity. So, if you have four passengers and three large pieces of large luggage to take along, you should opt for a five-seater with the capacity for four large luggage pieces. - 2368
