Best deal on a 1-day car rental?
I have been searching around and I thought I remember there being a thread with a HUGE list of car rental deals (particularly AVIS), but I can only find smaller deals.I will be taking a trip to Chicago soon and need a car for the day. Can someone help me find the best deal? |

I'm late w/ this, but the thread came up in my search for AVIS rental codes. I thought I'd contribute. I too need a one-day rental to grab the car from Chicago, IL O'Hare and to leave the car in a different city (Rockford, IL).
Normally I go with National Rental Car but seems they are out of cars tomorrow for a one day rental from O'Hare ( http://twitpic.com/baxk63/full ). Second choice is usually Enterprise and they are out. I went to the AVIS site without any login info and was looking at $89-$92 BEFORE fees for Subcompact Hyundai Accent or similar to Full Size Chevrolet Impala or similar. w/ the K817165 AWD code mentioned in this thread, I was looking at $78-$87 BEFORE fees. I found another AWD code X133557 from this other thread and that got me the $73 - $79 range. Somehow or another - maybe in the process of the Free Preferred Membership Account creation - another AWD code showed up which was X505639. That too was giving me the $73-$79 range for the subcompact to Full Size. So I just went with that. What killed me though was the fees which were $38.34 on top of the $73: Surcharges: 20.24 USD - $8.00 per day (Customer Facility Charge) - $2.75 per rental (City Tax) - $1.25 per day (Vehicle License Fee) - 11.1% applies only to certain corporate accounts (Concession Recovery Fee) Tax ( 20.000% ) 18.10 USD Mileage:Unlimited Base Rate and Charges $111.34 USD i mentioned Enterprise earlier. I recall renting from Enterprise back over labor day weekend w/ a same day call and it cost me something between $40ish and $60ish for a diff city drop off (pick up in Rockford Airport, return in Milwaukee Airport). Maybe it's just because the airport wasn't O'Hare. When I land tomorrow in O'Hare, will try my luck to call Enterprise and see if anything can be done. Hopefully I can back out of my AVIS rental if something can happen. I know this won't help you anymore OP but hopefully it'll help someone else. Maybe I'll get lucky and someone will find this thread soon giving me some other options. Last edited by Rizvi1; 11-06-2012 at 02:29 PM.. |
