Cheap Car Rent LAX

If you've booked a flight to California that will be arriving at LAX, you can go ahead and book your rental car online. There are several websites that offer really cheap deals on rental cars:

Hotwire

While Hotwire is a price comparison website, it takes a very interesting approach to aggregating deals. What sets Hotwire apart from other sites is the fact that it keeps all of its sources confidential. This is the reason it's able to offer such cheap rates. While you will be able to see all the details of each result it finds, you won't be able to see the company offering the rental until after you've booked it. To see what this website has to offer, you can use the search box by:

  • Selecting the Cars button
  • Entering LAX in the first blank
  • Selecting your pick-up and drop-off dates
  • You can also opt to compare your searches with CarRentals and/or Expedia

Kayak

You may be wondering why you should take the time to search more than one price comparison website. The answer is different comparison sites pull in different offers. As a result, if you only search one site, you may not find the best deal that's available. Given the fact that you can literally search these sites in less than a minute, there's no reason not to check multiple sources to see which one has the cheapest deals. Just a few minutes of your time can translate to you keeping more money in your pocket.

To start your Kayak search, click the Cars link on the left side of the homepage. You can then enter LAX in the Where box, as well as select the dates of your trip to California. Once you click the Search button, the site will quickly pull in the best results from all the sources it checks. Don't be surprised if you see prices that are as low as $18 or $19. While this is great, keep in mind those are the daily rates. The slightly higher but still cheap total cost of the rentals is displayed below this number. If you want to narrow down the list of results, you can easily do so by using the filters on the left side of the page.

Dollar

If you decide that you prefer to search the website of an individual rental car company, Dollar is known for offering quite a few good deals. You can see exactly what they're currently offering by clicking the Specials tab at the top of their website. Depending on the time of year, you will see specials on everything from compact cars to weekly rentals. If you see a special you want to book, you can do so by clicking the More link that's next to it. If you prefer to simply do a search, you can get back to the homepage with a single click. You'll then be able to quickly perform a search of all their available LAX rentals.
