Car Rental In Houston... Price Difference for Airport Locations?
William asks:
I'm looking at car rental in Houston. The price is the same for airfare to fly into IAH or HOU airport. I'm assuming that all the car rental companies charge around the same price, but I was wondering if there is a difference in price for a rental car in Houston, depending on which aiport I rent from.
I'm looking to rent a midsize car from August 7 to August 14, if that helps.
My Response:
There is a definite difference in price for car rental in Houston, depending on which airport you rent from. The price for a rental car in Houston at IAH is more than the price for a Houston car rental at HOU, when searching rates for the dates that you are looking at specifically. And, don't assume that all the rental car companies have the same price range... there can be a big difference!
For example, I checked both aiports for Aug 7 - Aug 14 for a midsize car (prices include taxes and surcharges, assuming same pickup and return time, no optional coverages and no discount code)
Here are the results: (keep in mind that prices can change at anytime!) Car rental company links open in a new window.
