Can you cancel with BA/Avis ?

Car hire prices have doubled from what I'm used to

Seen a reasonable deal with BA for next easter (still nearly £100 more than I would normally pay)

Trouble is I haven't got flights yet and we won't be going if I can't get them cheap enough so need a cancellable deal.

If you haven't booked flights I'd hold off car hire just now. If the dollar rate gets better you may get a better deal.

The other thing to keep in mind with BA is that they quite often do very good deals on fly drives with the car hire heavily discounted I have used them quite a few times for this and had good savings xxx

Have you looked at a BA/Avis fly drive?

Have you looked at an ex EU BA fly drive?

Just looked at BA flydrive as suggested. Was about £700 more than I wanted to pay for the flights on my preferred BA route NCL - MIA so about £400 too much car included and with poor flight times on return.

Off to look at routes from Manchester via different places - thanks for the tip.

I assume the fly drive includes all extra insurances ?

Yes it does.

Did you look at Dublin to MCO with a separate NCL- DUB-NCL flights?

Login to BA as Irelabd as your home country, do the same with Aer Lingus too
