I was rather daunted when I knew that I would be visiting London at the prospect of having to hire a car. I had no idea where I was going to get one from and did not really have time to mess about, when I arrived. However, I was grateful when a friend explained that they had car hire companies at the airport and I could even book one in advance of my cheap flight. It turned out that it was so easy to do and it saved me both a lot of worry and a lot of time, which was fantastic.

I guess it is probably obviously to people who travel a lot, that there will be car hire companies based at airports but I am not a regular traveller, in fact have only flown a few times and neither time did I need a hire car. It was fantastic to have the service on hand and to be able to book it all up beforehand so I knew that there would be a car there waiting for me and that it would be suitable for my needs. It really helped to make my journey a lot more relaxing and I was really happy when I arrived. Normally I am madly stressed and panicked and hate travelling but knowing that everything was well planned in advance meant that I felt so much better and actually enjoyed my trip as well as arriving in a much better frame of mind at the other end.
