10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Kottarakara

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for budget-friendly options, use Expedia's filters to discover the ideal vehicle for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to reserve your car well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you're more likely to secure lower rates and enjoy greater availability, particularly during peak travel seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid extra fees. This is typically the best choice. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which are also acceptable. Just ensure you return the car empty in this case.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but it may be worthwhile for the added convenience it provides.
  • Know your payment options: Many car rental companies only accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and offers peace of mind if something unexpected occurs during your trip. It's simple to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, look for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
