WOW, why has car hire price increased so much?

Unfortunately as the companies have had little to no revenue over the last few months they are going to be offering less and less discounts for a while.

Absolutely correct. Exchange rate is much less in our favour than last year and all pricing starts in USD to be converted to GBP for us. As the rate has gone slightly more in our favour over the last couple of weeks, prices are starting to ease.

Another vote for DFCH though - Andy is the best.

There’s also the cost of deep cleaning - not just the individual cars after every return, but also the garage, desk/booth, staff uniforms etc. All adds up.

Prices have come down in the last month

I was also shocked today. I’m booked to go end of year and HOPING all goes ahead. Have messaged Andy too - so thank you to everyone who’s recommended 😊

Prices are dropping nicely I am finding. Especially if you use the Alamo Max perk to get the free upgrade.

Not on for all dates in 2021 but certainly is for March which I need.

Yes. I managed to get a good deal through Andy at DFCH for next May/June. It is the Alamo Max perk upgrading the intermediate SUV to a standard. I must admit other car sizes are still pricey.
