Why book your car in advance? 5 advantages you can’t ignore

Published 20 de January de 2025
Smart planning can make the difference between a perfect holiday and an unnecessary headache: the hotel you wanted is sold out, there’s no room for that key sightseeing tour on your itinerary… and that goes for car hire too.  As experts in the industry, we want to tell you why booking your car in advance can be your best strategy. We’ll also give you a few tips – take note!   

Significant price savings 

The dynamics of car rental prices are similar to those of flights: the earlier you book, the better deals you’ll find. Prices tend to increase significantly closer to the rental date, especially in high season. By booking early, you can save up to 30% on the final price.   

Increased vehicle availability 

Imagine you need a spacious family car for your holiday, but when you book at the last minute only compact models are available. By booking in advance, you’ll have access to the entire fleet, allowing you to choose the model that best suits your needs.   

More efficient budgeting 

Booking in advance allows you to spread your travel costs more effectively. What if my plans change and I can’t go? Make sure you check each company’s terms and conditions and don’t take any chances. We always offer free cancellation   

Peace of mind guaranteed 

Is there anything more stressful than arriving at your destination with no certainty of finding an available vehicle? By booking in advance, you can eliminate this worry and concentrate on enjoying your trip from the very first moment.   

Access to special offers 

Early booking promotions are often available to reward users for planning ahead. In the end, early booking benefits both your wallet and your peace of mind, as well as the rental company who can offer you the best possible service and availability. Malco is currently running an active January sale with great discounts that will not be seen again for a long time. The offers are exclusive to members of the Malco Club, which you can join completely free of charge. 

Sign up here, check your inbox for the confirmation email and that’s it! You’re in. Log in to the website and the discounts will be applied automatically. Please note that the discounts are valid for bookings within this year 2025 and will be active until the 31st of January at 23:59h at the latest. We wouldn’t think twice if we were you…   

Tips for successful early booking of your holiday  

  • We recommend booking at least 2-3 months in advance for high season travel. In summer and tourist areas, 6 months may be more advisable 
  • Look out for seasonal offers and special promotions to save as much as possible. 
  • Check cancellation policies for hotels, activities, car hire and more.  
  • Consider your specific space and equipment needs.
