If you’re sharing driving duties, check the policies on additional drivers. Some companies charge extra fees, while others may allow it for free under certain conditions.

Research fuel prices in the area where you'll return the vehicle. Filling up at a local station may be cheaper than paying for fuel through the rental company, especially if they charge higher rates.

If you're looking for extra comfort or features, ask about upgrade options at the rental counter. Often, discounted upgrades are available at pickup.

Before returning the vehicle, clarify the return procedures with the rental company. Knowing where to drop off the car and any required inspections can streamline the process.

Select a pickup spot that is easy for you to reach. Many rental companies offer locations within airports for quick access, while others may require a shuttle.

Check if the rental company provides extras such as GPS devices or child seats. These can enhance your experience but may come with added fees, so plan accordingly.

When renting a car, understand the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy means you return the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means you return it with the same level of fuel. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

Before booking, review the rental agreement for any hidden fees such as airport surcharges, additional driver fees, or late return penalties. Understanding these can help you budget more effectively.
