How to pay less?

  • Pick up your car in Mackay city instead of the airport. A short taxi ride can save you 10-15% on your rental cost compared to the convenience of an airport pickup.
  • Travelling during the peak season from June to October? Book your car in advance to get a better deal before vehicles become limited.
  • If you need a car for about a week, check the price for a 7-day rental. You often pay for 6 days and get the 7th day free.
  • Always return the car with a full tank of fuel. There are stations near the airport, and filling it yourself is much cheaper than paying the rental company to do it.
