(New York Times) — Decline the paid upgrade: According to the piece, if the rental car company offers you an upgrade for a fee, it may actually be the case that the company doesn’t have the class of vehicle you reserved. “Decline the offer and you’ll probably get the upgrade for free,” the agent recommended. Decline the prepaid gas option: According to the agent, unless you plan to return the car with an empty tank, opting for the prepaid gas option is “wasting money.” If, for instance, you bring it back with even some gas in the tank and you had opted for the prepaid gas option, you’re basically giving the rental company the value of the gas in the tank, according to the piece.
