Tips & tricks for the holiday wallet

1. Early car rental = less expensive 

This year a rental car will cost less than in 2022 and that is great news! But how can this be? As you may have noticed during your holiday last year, there was a shortage of cars. Rents skyrocketed. Fortunately, there are more cars available this year and as a result, holidaymakers pay less for a rental car this year.

However, this is certainly not the case at every destination. In addition, the smaller models are still scarce at the moment. That is why it is our advice to book early. This way you save money and you also have a wider choice of rental cars. But what is early booking? On average, holidaymakers book a car 67 days before the trip. Our tip: book the car for those 67 days and you will generally enjoy better prices. Are the plans not quite set yet? At Sunny Cars you can cancel the car free of charge up to 1 hour before the start of the rental. So you can already book the car and if the plans change, it will cost you nothing.
