I’m flying into Palma (PMI) in the summer and my flight is scheduled to arrive at 23:55. I went to book a rental car through Rentalcars.com but discovered that the prices were almost double those I’d seen just a few hours earlier. Turns out that picking up a car at 00:30 limits options somewhat!
Anyway, if I set the collection time to 22:00, the prices are reasonable and there is a much greater selection. Has anyone experience of rocking up to the rental location late and if so, how did it work out? I’m guessing I could get lucky and it would work out, but alternatively they could shut up shop and I’d be without a car in the middle of the night 70km from the hotel.
I considered getting a transfer to the final destination and renting when we get there but the extra cost comes to about the same as the extra on the rental booking.
