Usually, the first thing tourists do is hire a rental car after landing at Kayseri Erkilet Airport. This airport is located not more than 5 km away from the Kayseri, Turkey. Although, you will see many companies doing their advertisement promising you with the best car in the city, but it is not always easy to have a fair and ideal deal.
Staying out of trouble when renting
- Advance Booking - Advance booking is always helpful. It not only makes sure that you will get your car on arriving at Kayseri Erkilet Airport but it also saves your money. It is because, when you book a car in advance, you will get a discount. In contrast to this, when you are going to hire it immediately, you will have to pay full rent payment, and it is highly unlikely to get some discount.
- Book for your whole trip - Like advance booking, you will also get discount from various companies, if you are renting a car for three or more days. Therefore, if you are thinking of getting a rental car for more than three days, just book it at once. Hiring a car for one day and then extending it to more days will not get you discount.
- Save Money on Insurance - Mostly, your credit cards have rental car insurance by default. Make sure that you know about this, and you will save yourself from getting additional insurance at the company counter.
- Mileage - It is another very important aspect that you must consider while selecting a car for rent. You must choose a car with better mileage, rather than a luxury car with less mileage. Normally, the latest models are more economical than the older models. Hence, while selecting any car, you must ask them about the model. The new car is always better, not only from mileage point of view, but also from general condition wise as well.
- Inspection of the Car - Before finalizing car, take a test drive and check all the interior and exterior for any damage. If you found any, inform the company agent.
- On returning car - When you are done with the car, go to fuel station and fill your tank. It is because, usually when you are renting a car, it came with full fuel tank, and on returning if it is not full, they will cost you for the fuel. Furthermore, if you rent a car that cost you on distance travel basis, make sure you note and preferably take a picture of car meter reading on hiring and returning to the car.
To summarize this, we can say that by keeping these simple things in our mind, we can not only get better vehicle for ourselves, but also save our hard earning money as well.
