The cheap alicante car hire test is similar to our cheap Alicante flights section, I did a cheap Alicante car hire test. Obviously pricing varies a lot depending on the time of the year and the car you want to hire. Here are the results of our Alicante car hire comparison.
Alicante car hire test :Car Hire for 24 May 2007 - 3 days - Economy Class - with AC (Test performed 11. March 2007)

Results on the cheap alicante car hire test: Our first choice for a cheap alicante car hire would be split between the local specialiced Alicante car hire companies and auto-europe.com . They are cheap, the online booking procedure is simple and the website is really fast. Second choice would be travelselect.com as it seemed to me they do go for a local car rental host. priceline.co.uk , opodo.co.uk and Lunn Poly book cars using holiday autos which is a very established car hire company. Quick tips on car hire Up until last year, we hired a car at Alicante airport every summer during our vacation. I guess it is pretty much the same all around Europe on how to rent a car. So allow me not to go into it. But, I found some special issues which you might consider on your next car hire in Alicante:
- Air Condition Starting from April until November temperatures can be up to 40 C. Even now (in March) we already had days with 28 C. Needless to say that either air condition or opening the window manually are the two choices you have. (I go for the first option :-)
- Baby/Children Seat If you are travelling with a baby or child (we did over many years) you should really consider bringing your baby/child-seat with you. Sure, you can hire them with your car - but we tried this twice - and always got just dirty and insecure seats. We are certainly not the only one, because whenever I wait for my luggage at the airport I see people carrying there baby seats.So don’t care if it means a little bit of hassle - for your childrens safety it is worth it!
- Extra Driver It doesn’t matter if you booked an extra driver at home - make sure at the car rental desk that they got the extra driver registered. If you and your partner want to drive the car - it must be in the papers you sign at the airport - (it does not matter what you might have ordered at your travel agency).
My wife and I had exactly this problem some years ago. So - please double check, if the extra driver is in the paper.
- Booking at Home Please make sure you book your car via your travel agency or via an internet travel agent. It is cheaper and easier, as particularly during summer season car rental companies are heavily booked. Book your car from home - before you travel to Alicante.The following car rentalcompanies have permanent Alicante car hire offices at the airport:

Finally, please have a look at our Alicante airport car hire parking plan, on how to find your car hire company at the airport. See where you will find the car hire counters and the parking lots where you can pick up your car. Full of information about major and local companies who offer alicante car hire.
