Car rental sector employees in Eskişehir state that the expected intensity is not experienced with the arrival of the summer season.
Hasan Köle, who operates in the car rental sector in Eskişehir, explained that the expected interest compared to previous years was not experienced this summer and that the demands decreased not only from guests from abroad but also from domestic tourists. Stating that families tend to go on holidays abroad or prefer to travel with their own vehicles due to the high prices of flight tickets, Köle said, "We offer prices that normally should be around 3 thousand 500-3 thousand 750 liras per day, with packages starting from 2 thousand 500 liras and going up to 3 thousand liras. However, there is a perception of expensiveness among the public and due to the very high price of flight tickets, families of 4 turn to routes such as Spain or Greece instead of Turkey or use their own vehicles." "They prefer to come," he said.
"Price ranges change according to seasonal periods"
Stating that price ranges change according to seasonal periods in the car rental industry, Hasan Köle said, "We have a price policy covering four seasons in our sector; prices are constantly changing in the summer, autumn, winter and spring periods. Therefore, in this period, daily rental and 30-day rental costs are almost at the same point."
"Renting a car is more profitable than buying a car"
Stating that owning a car is not a right option in the current period, Hasan Köle said, "In my opinion, renting a car today is a much more profitable option than owning an individual car. Our customers generally prefer this service for occasions such as holidays, weddings, funerals or business meetings." - ESKİŞEHİR
