Prepare for the Holidays with Savannah Car Rental The holidays are fast approaching, and this may mean travel near or far to visit relatives, friends, or simply get away for a few days. If you’re hitting the road this November or December, keep in mind a few helpful tips on how to prepare for your holiday travel, and how Savannah Car Rental can help: 1. Map your route in advance. If you’re planning a road trip, it’s helpful to map your route in advance. This will eliminate the guesswork and stress of trying to do so while you’re driving — which will also help you avoid using a map or cell phone GPS while you’re driving. Allow plenty of time so you don’t have to rush, and be sure to take traffic, rush hour, potential road construction, and weather into account when planning how you’ll get to your destination. This is relatively easy to do with the variety of GPS apps available. 2. Remember to pack a first-aid kit. Include a first-aid kit with basic medications and band-aids. You can even include prescription medicines if necessary. You never know what will happen while you’re on the road, and depending on where you’re traveling, you may not be anywhere convenient to stop and buy medical essentials. Having a complete first-aid kit handy can make mishaps on the road a little more painless. 3. Secure valuables. Always keep tabs on where your valuables are, even when you’re on a road trip. When you stop, never leave valuable items in plain sight from outside the vehicle. Lock them in the trunk, and ensure they’re secured in your luggage. This can help deter break-ins, and can give you peace of mind, as well. 4. Rent with Savannah Car Rental. Consider renting a car for your holiday road trip. Renting a car for a road trip is becoming more popular because it just makes sense. Not only will you have a new car to drive for the duration of your trip, but you’ll save mileage and wear and tear on your own car. If you’re planning on a road trip this holiday season, Savannah Car Rental can make that process easy. Savannah Car Rental can provide you with a safe, low-mileage, late-model Nissan to get you comfortably to your destination. Whether it’s just you or the entire family, we offer a variety of vehicle sizes to accommodate your family. We’re also proud to offer a 10% student discount and will happily waive the security deposit for active duty military. Any one of our convenient locations in Savannah, Hinesville, or Statesboro are ready to make your holiday road trip a great one. Let Savannah Car Rental Make Your Holiday Road Trip Stress-Free In addition to preparing thoroughly for your trip with a completely mapped out route, a fully- stocked first-aid kit, and remembering to secure any and all valuables in the vehicle, renting a car can ensure a safe and smooth trip. If you’re stressing about your holiday road trip already, let Savannah Car Rental help!

Savannah Car Rentals is Proud to Offer a Military Discount The Savannah area is home to several military bases, each having contributed in unique ways to the history of the region, the state of Georgia, and to the United States itself. That fact is not lost on Savannah Car Rentals, and we are proud to offer a military discount to active duty military members. Hunter Army Airfield and Fort Stewart have been serving the United States for decades and continue to do so with their various military operations to this day. Whether you’re visiting the Savannah area, or you’ve lived here all your life, take a minute to appreciate our region’s military history, especially as Veteran’s Day quickly approaches… ❖ Hunter Army Airfield: Hunter is located in Savannah but is a subordinate installation of nearby Fort Stewart. Named after Lt. Col. Frank Hunter, a famous WWI pilot, Hunter is known in part for its exceptionally long runway (almost 11,400 feet). For this reason, it was actually considered as a possible landing site for several Space Shuttle missions. Among other groups, the Savannah Coast Guard Air Station operates out of Hunter to keep our coasts and waterways safe. ❖ Fort Stewart: Fort Stewart is home to several thousand servicemembers and is located southwest of Savannah in Hinesville, Ga. It was named after Brig. Gen. Daniel Stewart, a hero of the American Revolution. Fort Stewart housed POW’s during WWII as well as the Anti-Aircraft Artillery Center. Later on, it was a staging area for divisions responding to the Cuban Missile Crisis. Today is home to the 3rd Infantry Division. ❖ Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay: Just two hours south of Savannah is Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay. Kings Bay was first an Army base that also staged service members during the Cuban Missile Crisis and became a Navy installation in the 1970s. It began housing Trident missile submarines in the 1980s and does so to this day, in addition to also being the home of the Trident Training Facility and the Marine Corps Security Force Battalion. ❖ Moody Air Force Base: Moody is three hours southwest of Savannah located near Valdosta, Ga. During WWII it was primarily a training location, and today it is home to the 23rd Wing Combat Search and Rescue group. Savannah Car Rentals: Convenient & Affordable for Active Duty Military If you are an active duty member of the military, Savannah Car Rentals is sure to be your most convenient and affordable option when it comes to car rental. Whether you’re renting for business or recreation, we offer three locations in close proximity to Fort Stewart and Hunter Airfield in Savannah, Hinesville, and Statesboro. Avoid adding mileage to your personal car by renting one of our low mileage, late model Nissans to get to and from your destination safely and comfortably. Active duty military members can also benefit from our military discount, which waives our security deposit. Whether you are visiting from out of town or call one of our local military bases home, Savannah Car Rentals looks forward to serving you.
