Rolling eyes

I wanted to find a deal for a one way car rental. DH and I were planning to rent a car and go from South FL to Buffalo by road and then from Buffalo get a flight ticket to South FL. We are planning this trip during the Thanksgiving week. Most of the car rental companies are not accepting the fact that we pick up at one location and drop off at another location. And one way flight tickets are pretty expensive too. Can you help me find a deal please?

how about some particulars such as dates? i suggest you purchase a RT airline ticket and just use it one way.

you also did not post which city in florida you want to fly to.

Do you know any deals?

you have a few options.

i found a RT fare of $194 (all fees included) from BUF to FLL on the dates you gave me, however, the fares are REALLY cheap prior to november 15th. it may be a good idea to wait until the new "fare sales" come out in the next month to see if you can get a better deal. it was at [Only registered and activated users can see links.

Either login above or Register Now] and i used a departure date of 11/24 from BUF to FLL and a "return" date to BUF of 11/29 (although you are NOT returning).

as for the car, it's going to be extremely tough to find a rental company that allows you to rent one way WITHOUT charging you a HUGE fee to do so.

i'll keep looking for cheap deals.

I don't know if it is possible, but if you could change your itinerary to drive south and fly north, you might be able to get a free car. Auto transportation agencies look for people to drive "snowbird's" cars south and from what I've heard, it can be almost free to do so. Also, if you are flexible on flight times, consider hotwire or priceline. See [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now] for excellent information on using priceline.
