Let's face it, Christmas can be a hassle what with all the rushing and the frenzy of buying presents, the organizing of where and with whom you'll celebrate the holidays, as well as finding enough time just to appreciate what Christmas really means!
So if you're going to need a rental car this Christmas holiday don't leave it too late to book. If you do you may very well end up being very disappointed by not getting the sort of car you want, or even not getting a car at all!
Try booking with a car rental broker instead of direct as they have more vehicle availability - remember they'll have contracts with Dollar, Hertz, Budget, National, Europcar, Alamo and many more suppliers - so they have access to all those fleets.
Book early and pre-pay for the vehicle, that way it won't get sold out from underneath you. Don't forget that prices will go up over the holiday period as it's a high season time, so check dates, some companies will charge the rate for the season you start in. This means if the high season starts on the 23rd and you book on the 22nd the whole thing will cost you less. The reverse is also true, if you start your rental on the last day of the high season and book for 2 weeks, you'll pay more!
It pays to ask questions to get several quotes from one place to check differences in prices (if any) depending on dates.
Above all, once you have booked your hire car, don't mix drinking and driving, you could spoil the whole holiday not just for you but your family and friends too!
