Step 2: Book car rental page

The processes involved in booking travel for yourself or for someone else or for multiple travellers are virtually the same. One key difference between the three different selections is that different profile data would be used for each one - either your profile data would be drawn into the booking, the profile data of someone else or that of multiple travellers. The other key difference is that in the case of booking for multiple travellers, after you have completed the booking information for the first traveller, the process must then be repeated for the other travellers.

To complete the Book Car Rental Page:

  1. Choose an Airport or City depot pick up location.
  2. For airport pick ups:
    1. Start to type in the airport name in the Airport box and click on it or press enter when it appears in the drop-down list. You can search for an airport using any part of the description - airport codes are a quick method. For example, John F Kennedy Airport is listed as "New York, John F Kennedy International, United States (JFK)". Therefore, it could be retrieved by typing "JFK", "New York" or "John".
    2. Information entered in the Carrier code and Flight number boxes is passed to the car rental vendor once the booking has been completed. The information is helpful but not essential. For the flight "Air France AF 1081", AF would be the carrier code and 1081 would be the flight number. For the flight "Qantas Airways QF 3415", QF would be the carrier code and 3415 would be the flight number.
  3. For city depot pick ups:
    1. If you choose a city depot pick up location: type out the city/town in full in the Search for a city box and click Find. After this, if you decide to change the search, click Clear.
    2. Make a selection from the Select a city drop-down menu and then the City depot drop-down menu.
  4. Select whether to have the same drop off location using the check box. If you choose a different drop off location, repeat the above steps.
  5. Complete the Pick up date box by clicking on the calendar icon and selecting the required date. Alternatively, you may type the date into the box.

    Tip: You can choose the pick up and drop off dates at the same time by clicking and dragging on the Pick up date calendar.

  6. Select a pick up time from the drop-down menu.
  7. If needed, alter the drop off dates and times.
  8. Select your car size, transmission, and air conditioning preferences and click Search.
