10 tips to save on your car hire in and around Kalathas

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by specifying vehicle type and desired features. Whether you're after an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economical car for budget-friendliness, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the ideal match for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it’s advisable to secure your vehicle well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you are more likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy greater availability, especially during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in crowded areas. Mid-size vehicles strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This could also affect drivers over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements before making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements stipulate a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is often the most favourable option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling alternatives, which can also be convenient. Just remember to return the vehicle empty in such cases.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: It’s common to incur a surcharge for collecting your rental car at airports, but this added cost may be worthwhile for the convenience it provides.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car hire companies only accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and offers peace of mind if something unexpected occurs during your trip. Adding car hire insurance when booking with Expedia is straightforward.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extensive road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra costs.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.
