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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search based on vehicle type and features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer outings, or an economy car for budget-friendly options, utilize the filters on Expedia to pinpoint the best fit for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary with 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, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are typically less expensive to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals 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 types—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals implement a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional fees. This is generally the preferred option. Other policies may include full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling choices, which are also acceptable; just ensure to return the car empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but this may be justified for the added convenience.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental companies exclusively accept credit cards for payments.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind in case of unexpected incidents during your trip. It’s easy to add car rental insurance when booking with Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning lengthy road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
