Simply Wheelz by Hertz expands in the US

The Hertz Corporation has expanded Simply Wheelz by Hertz offering to Los Angeles and San Diego Airports in California and Miami International and West Palm Beach Airports in Florida.

In addition, available for rental pick-up beginning December 1st, Simply Wheelz will be available at McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas.

Simply Wheelz, which has been designed for online customers looking for a low price from recognised companies,

accepts third party reservations, via travel agents and online booking channels, and reservations via its website (www.SimplyWheelz.com). There is also a self-service rental kiosk to rent vehicles.

"Following the consumer popularity of our pilot programme in Orlando, it's only natural we expand Simply Wheelz into additional leisure destinations," said Mark P. Frissora, chairman and CEO, The Hertz Corporation.

"While there are numerous economic headwinds facing the American public, people continue to travel. Trip dynamics are evolving, and Simply Wheelz targets the 60 percent of leisure travelers who now book their car rentals online, as well as those primarily focused on price. Simply Wheelz places Hertz squarely in the middle of that market, by allowing customers to easily reserve and rent cars at prices that are very competitive with other recognisable low cost providers," said Frissora.
