car rental in NZ
"shakefly" wrote in
: I am checking out car rental in NZ (South Island) for April on the internet and noticed that the best price I see is around NZ$39 per day excluding insurance. Is this about the best price there is or can I get better prices walking into a car rental operation at Christchurch airport? Thanks in advance for any advice! That's the best price you can get, IME. For that price you will be getting a second-hand car imported from Japan, not a new car. Geodyne |

Christchurch Airport is definitely NOT the best place to get a cheap deal.
Like all airports, the rental car companies have to pay megabucks for the right to set up shop at the airport. The cheaper operations are based off airport and will offer to meet you at the airport.
