Holidaymakers heading for Turkey this summer are being advised by one of the UK’s leading car hire brokers that a change in Turkish law means they may face fines and invalid insurance if they drive some of the larger vehicle available for hire.

Economy Car Hire is warning that from May, UK drivers will not be able to drive a nine-seater minibus on a standard license – a popular choice for larger parties and families traveling together.

Economy Car Hire has now removed nine-seater vehicles from sale from this date, but is warning holidaymakers that not all car hire companies are aware of the law change. The company is contacting all customers who have booked such vehicles to offer them alternatives.

“With the strength of the Euro, Turkey is a popular choice for holidaymakers this year,” said Economy Car Hire managing director Rory Sexton. “This change in the law has been introduced quickly and quietly, so it’s important that holidaymakers know about it.

“From 1st May, British people driving a nine-seater vehicle on a standard UK license will be driving illegally, which will also invalidate their insurance, leaving them facing huge costs in the event of an accident.”

The global financial crisis has impacted many areas of the tourist industry. Many UK holiday makers are opting to stay in the UK with the Euro exchange rate making European travel a less attractive prospect.

In 2009 the recession in Portugal lead to a shortfall in the number of rental cars in the Algarve. The situation is likely to be repeated in the Summer of 2010. Matt May spokesman for UK company Blue Valley Car Hire who provide car hire in the Algarve region of Portugal explains.

“In Portugal, most of the local rental car companies rely on hiring in additional cars during the busy periods such as Easter and Summer to boost the size of their rental car fleets. The credit crunch in Europe has made it much more difficult for these companies to obtain additional cars for the busy periods, as the companies that they lease from are insisting on longer term leases. The result in Summer 2009 was spiralling prices and a general car hire shortage. Many people turning up at Faro Airports without a pre-booked car last Summer discovered that there were no rental cars available.”

Matt continues “we are anticipating a similar situation in 2010, so we recommend that people book as early as possible. The situation at Faro Airport which is the hub of the Algarve tourist industry in 2009 was very frustrating for tourists hoping to pick up a holiday rental car bargain. By booking early you will guarantee that a car is reserved in your name, and avoid having to pay the higher prices on arrival at the airport.”

Numerous travel industry experts have been warning about car hire shortages this summer in popular spanish holiday destinations like Alicante, Malaga and Murcia. Together with Mallorca these are just a couple of the destinations among those which are hit the hardest.

Many holidaymakers who have been looking for last minute car hire in Spain this year have experienced an unpleasant surprise. Most of the leading car rental companies have no solution other than to turn away customers who haven checked car hire availability.

“People are really surprised when they find out that there are no rental cars available in Spain” says a spokesman of one of Spain’s leading online car hire brokers. “They cannot understand how it is possible that hotel occupation figures have gone down and that it is possible to get a cheap flight to Spain in high season or a hotel room in the month of August without problems, even with a discount, but that they are unable to book a hire car or in case they are lucky to find one, have to pay more than double the price they paid last year for the same vehicle.”

The global financial crisis has prevented many car hire firms from adding a range of new vehicles to their existing fleets. Most car hire companies have seen their fleet reduced by as much as 50%, because of the credit crunch. due to the current financial situation they have not been able to purchase the number of rental cars they projected in their budgets for 2009.

“We always recommend our customers to book car hire online instead of wasting time and nerves upon arrival trying to find a car on the spot.” The current situation in Spain is a perfect example why booking car hire ahead of time is good practice. Therefore early bookers are rewarded with discounts when the hire car is booked at least three months in advance. “Last minute bookings make it very hard for our partners to manage their rental fleet, apart from the nerves when a couple of days before the pickup date there are still a lot of cars available, that’s why we grant our customers an incentive when they book early.”

If you are planning to visit Spain and don’t want to be disappointed by either lack of choice or indeed lack of availability due to the hire car shortage make sure to book well in  advance.

Avis, the leading global car rental company, recently announced its entrance into Vietnam as the first leading global car rental brand by 1 July 2009.

Avis Vietnam will offer business and leisure customers the full spectrum of car rental, car leasing and chauffeur drive services. Besides the latest range of compact, mid to large size, sports and luxury vehicles from popular brands such as Mercedes Benz, Toyota, Audi and many others, a professionally trained and experienced English speaking local driver – Avis ambassador will also be included as part of the car hire. Avis Vietnam cars are equipped with amenities such as mobile phone, international newspapers and magazines, chilled water and towels and 24-hour customer-service support.

Avis Vietnam will operate from its main headquarters in Hanoi and plans to open branches in Ho Chi Minh City in the third quarter of 2009 and Danang in 2010. The company expects its fleet size to grow to over 300 by the end of 2011.

June 2009 – International destinations far and wide are being affected by a shortage of hire cars, travel firm DialAFlight announced last week.

Travellers are being urged to book their car hire early to avoid disappointment, as rental operators in Canada, Spain, Portugal and Croatia all expect demand to exceed supply this season.

In North America, ongoing upheaval in the auto industry has raised significant concerns about the numbers of vehicles available to rental companies. With major market players (including Chrysler, Ford and General Motors) closing factories and losing assets, fewer cars are coming off the production line.

According to Dan Fogarty, manager of Discount Car and Truck Rental in Sydney, Nova Scotia, “The thing about the summer is that you rent all your vehicles all the time. So having less vehicles will just make things much more tricky. The size of my fleet right now is not the size that I planned for it to be.”

In Europe, popular destinations such as Alicante, Palma, Faro and Malaga have all suffered from car shortages. A number of suppliers have simply held their stock levels due to the economic climate, and are now being caught out as summer travellers continue with their holidays, unperturbed by the recession.

DialAFlight, who arrange car hire for passengers across the globe, say that “many of our car hire suppliers have not replaced their fleets this year because the manufacturers are refusing to buy back the old vehicles owing to the credit crunch. We are already receiving Stop Sales alerts for August as there is a shortage of cars in some areas. If you need car rental this summer we recommend booking it now!”
