Why are car rentals so expensive at Newark airport (I know it’s NY, but still..) Trying to rent a car to drive from EWR to Montauk, NY. Anyway not to spend $90 bucks a day?

Use skyscanner to rent cars. It’s the cheapest I’ve found across all websites.

Tuesday-Friday July 9-12 from Newark.
Only $165 for the entire time. Very cheap.
If you’re under 25 you’ll have to pay a +$25 surcharge for everyday you have the car though.

Typically you get hit with ridiculous airport fees which maybe be more than the actual rental rate

Good point, looked at other non-airport locations, way cheaper

Cause everyone in NYC rents cars for the weekend in the summers and our corporate discount codes don’t really work on weekends... gotta either book way in advance or I’ve booked the morning of to get cheap prices

There are added charges for one way rentals

I’m not going on the weekend (Tuesday to Friday) and it’s a round trip.

It’s probably your dates then. I picked a random weekend and did a search and found $35/day.

Try silvercar. You can usually get 20% first rental

Hello Fishes,

I am worried because of the time crunch and will be glad to hear some points on this.
