Carrentals.co.uk warns of hire car shortage
Carrentals.co.uk is warning of a shortage of hire cars this summer as suppliers run out of stock.
The car hire comparison site is urging British travellers to book early for the summer after a number of suppliers sold out in key locations over half term and Easter.
It claimed the problem was particularly bad in popular locations such as Alicante, Malaga, Palma and Faro.
Managing director Gareth Robinson said: “Demand in certain locations has exceeded supply this year. A number of car hire suppliers have held their stock levels because of the economic climate, but with many people still travelling some are being caught out.â€
