Car Hire at LAX

[15/15 flex]

As there is a veritable proliferation of agents at LAX, would anyone have some good contacts/suggestions? (Apart from using such long-winded wording)

Will be looking for the (de-rigeur) convertible for 2 weeks in October.

Try Dollar rentals,reasonable,sign the deal,shuttle bus to parking..Ask for airline rate,pay by card to avoid'collision'coverage(some cards absorb the extra rate)

Try WWW.TRAVELOCITY.CO.UK and go to the car section. Just hired econo car for £70 per week....

On a recent visit to LAX, I pre-booked with the following company. They offered the best deal I could find for "fully-inclusive". The actual firm they used was ALAMO. I ended up with a Chevy Blazer 4x4 for a week for just over £200, slightly cheaper than the list showed.

I've got a mid-size Mitsubshi for 2 weeks in Florida, July, for £180

Best "All Inclusive" deal I found last year for car rental at LAX was pre-booking through Budget Car Rental in the UK.

Got a Mid-sized car (bigger than a Mondeo) for £500 for three weeks (approx £167 a week!). Also, when we got there we were offered an upgrade to a Mustang Convertible (and very nice it was too) for only an additional $150 for the entire three weeks!!

They also chucked in a free cellphone (for emergency use only) which would have been very useful if we'd broken down in the middle of Nevada.

Hope this helps.
