This time of year is high season in Florida so if you want to hire a car, you need to book as early as you can. I’ve mentioned before that the economic climate has definitely changed the way in which the major (and minor) car hire companies have changed the way they manage their fleets.

It means that they’ve cut back on the numbers of hire cars they have available at each location, plus they are sometimes keeping cars that are older than six months. What this means to you is that unlike flights, waiting until nearer your departure date will not get you a deal!

In fact the only thing that’s likely to happen is you end up not getting a hire car at all, especially in a popular destination like Florida!

So what to do if you want a Florida car hire? the best tip I can give you is to book your hire car early don’t wait just get it booked. If you are booking at the last minute, then go for a slightly larger hire car as they cheaper groups are usually the first to go.

Be prepared to take what’s available and you can afford, don’t let it spoil your holiday, be happy that you’re one of the lucky ones who actually managed to get a Florida hire car!
