9 tips to save on your Airport car rental near Erfurt

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car to accommodate extra luggage, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the best option for your journey.
  • Book in advance for some of the best rates: It is generally advisable to secure your airport car rental as early as possible for more competitive rates and a wider selection. Booking 1-3 months in advance is recommended, particularly before peak travel seasons.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might have limited availability. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements before finalising your booking.
  • Consider a budget-friendly car for savings: Smaller vehicles, such as economy or compact cars, are typically more affordable to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals provide a good balance of cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements may stipulate a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you are required to return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is often the best option. Others might offer full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are acceptable as well, but make sure to return the car empty in that scenario.
  • Know your payment options: Most rental companies necessitate a credit card in the driver's name for security deposits. Debit cards may not always be accepted.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you steer clear of unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind should any unforeseen circumstances arise during your trip. It's straightforward to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  • Check for unlimited mileage: If you plan to spend considerable time on the road, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to avoid extra charges on extended journeys.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential to rent a car.
