10 tips to save on your car rental in and around 12th Arrondissement

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you’re in need of an SUV for extra space, a convertible for summer outings, or an economy car for budget-friendly travel, utilize the filters on Expedia to discover the perfect vehicle for your trip.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your reservation well ahead of your travel dates. By booking early, you are more likely to obtain lower prices and a wider selection, especially during peak travel seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Generally, smaller cars are more affordable to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This also applies to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements before finalizing your booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid extra charges. This is typically the most favorable option. Other choices may include full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car empty in those cases.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the added convenience may justify the cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provide peace of mind in case of unexpected events during your trip. It's easy to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning long road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.
