ufauxreal Posted February 6, 2009 Report Posted February 6, 2009 I've been bidding unsuccessfully for a rental car in FLL for the week of 3/15-3/21. I started at $10/day up to $18/day, using Economy, Compact and Mid-Size cars... all rejected.I just checked on HOTWIRE, and they are quoting $33 for Economy, $34 for Compact and $35 for Mid-size cars. Does anyone have a guess as to why these rates are so high for this week? Any suggestions, or should I just keep bidding and upping my price? Should I wait until closer to the travel dates?Thanks!JB
