SKY Rental Cars they rent for three days ...

...In the past I have noticed that AUtoeurope charges the same amount for a week than for less days, but looking into
SKY cars I found out that they would charge less, for 3 or 4 days rental than for one week, which I find extremely attractive.
Has anyone tried them, they advertised an all inclusive rate
have an office in the US, and rent all over Europe.

Hi G,

I just checked AE.

They do have 3 day rates, and they are less than for 1 week.

Hi Ira, yes indeed they offer a four day deal but what I meant is that the final bill is more or less the same.
I checked both AE and Sky,
and
AE was charging for four days in Spain $187, while Sky : $164.
But AE excludes collition Damage waiver and theft
while Sky include both with high deductubles though
of around 600 euros each.
Can someone give me some advice?

Hi G,

Call AE and tell them the quoted rate from SKY, they usually will better any other offer.

Re CDW: Does your credit card company offer free insurance? If so, it is usually better coverage than standard CDW.

PS,

I checked SKY for my upcoming visit to Europe.

SKY $873
AE $845
Kemwel $844
Gemut $742

No one company is always the least expensive.
