Nationwide Car Rental Company Discounts
One of the oldest car rental companies around is National Car Rentals. Many of National Car Rentals innovations are now standard practice with car rentals companies including the one way rental which allows the customer the flexibility of depositing the car at a different location to where it rented at.
The reservation process at National Car Rentals was improved and is now second to none thanks to a computerized system called Telemax and has shaved a great deal of time off reserving a car. National Car Rentals also started the flat rate for car renter’s scheme which they brought in after increases in air travel after the airlines were deregulated in 1976.
National car rentals are also one of the earliest companies to start corporate account business back in the 70’s. Using this program, NCR has been able to use its resources to help the corporate traveler and be the first to introduce the frequent renter facility that many others have copied. You can thank National Car Rentals if you are a member of the Emerald Club as they were the initiators of the paperless car rentals by using computers. Now, registered customers can use a completely paperless system and collect their car without even going to the rental counter. For many car renters, the only concern they have is what car they drive and can they miss the rental counter; well at National Car Rentals, both of these are possible with Choice Rental Process and QuickRent, two very popular schemes with their customers.
National Car Rentals put the customer first and to highlight this philosophy, the number of companies that they have an arrangement with continues to grow. Frequent flyer miles programs are a useful tool for the regular traveller and companies like Air Canada, Air Miles, Air France, Alaska Airlines, Alitalia, America West airlines, American Airlines, ATA airlines, Delta Airlines, Continental Airlines, Frontier Airlines, Hawaiian Airlines, Iberia airlines, Midwest airlines, Lanchile, United Airlines and Northwest airlines now have an affiliation with National Car Rentals.
National Car Rentals has not stopped at just airlines either as they have also added hotels to their affiliation portfolio including the Coast hotels group where customer discounts have been arranged.
American Express and Hilton Hotels are another two very large organizations that have made special arrangements for NCR customers.
Apart from the discounts arranged on the customers behalf there is also a large range of vehicles to choose from. If you are after choice then you won’t be disappointed with the line up of vehicles that National have arranged; every type and class form the subcompacts to the large SUV’s.
National Car rentals also have special offers for their customers, one of which is the Last minute specials to go; which offers different specials every week at different locations. Since internet bookings have become more commonplace, it has been easy to arrange special offers for those customers that book online, one of which is the Internet Book Ahead Special which gives a discount the earlier you reserve your car. Using the internet to book your car has meant a whole host of offers with tow other special offers like the previous but one is for sports utility vehicle and mini-van rental with the other for those who only want the car over a weekend period.
