Cheap AVIS Car Hire in Zurich

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.

Select a pickup location that is convenient for you. Some rental companies offer locations within the airport for quick access, while others may require shuttle transportation.

Before renting a car, check if your personal car insurance covers rental losses. Many personal auto insurance policies and credit cards offer coverage for rentals, which could save you from extra insurance fees.

Be aware that some rental companies impose age restrictions or additional fees for drivers under 25. Make sure to check the company’s age policy when booking.

Steer clear of peak traffic times to minimize delays and frustration.

Using a GPS or navigation app can help you avoid traffic jams and find efficient routes.

When hiring a car, especially if you’re arriving in Zurich by flight, plan for extra time at pickup to accommodate any potential delays. Suppliers like AVIS typically offer a grace period of 30-60 minutes. Providing your flight number can be helpful, but if you’re running late, be sure to call the supplier to inform them.

Car hires from AVIS in Zurich are charged per day. If you rent for more than 24 hours, you will be charged for an additional day, so plan accordingly.
