Across the year, an Economy car booked around 9 months before your trip averages $71 a day, so you have not missed a substantial saving by leaving it later.

Hertz is the cheapest company at Guernsey Airport for an Economy car, averaging $56 a day over the last 12 months, and has a desk at the airport. Hertz takes a debit card, but you should allow for a $264 deposit and a 22-minute average desk wait. Europcar averages $65 a day for an Economy car over the same period, $9 more a day than Hertz, but holds no deposit. Hertz does not yet have enough reviews for a score, so check the rental terms before choosing solely on price.

The cheapest company can cost you a longer queue or a bigger deposit, so check the review score and desk wait beside each car in the results before you book.

At Guernsey Airport, allow for Hertz’s 22-minute average desk wait and check reviews before choosing on price, rather than assuming the cheapest company will also suit your pickup plans. Hertz does not yet have enough reviews for a score, and neither do Europcar or Sixt, so do not treat any of them as a review-backed winner. Hertz is cheapest for an Economy car over the last 12 months at $56 a day on average. Europcar averages $65 a day for an Economy car over the same period, so paying $9 more a day does not give you a scored alternative.

Review scores are CarTrawler customers' own, from the last five months; the score and the desk wait sit beside each car in the results.

At Guernsey Airport, all 3 desks take a debit card, and deposits range from $0 with Europcar to $397 with Sixt, so compare the card hold as well as the rental price.

Extras charged at the desk are listed under each car with their price.

If you bring your own child seat, check your airline's rules first: most carry one free, some charge.

At Guernsey Airport, watch your collection time and available card balance: Hertz’s desk wait averages 22 minutes, while Sixt holds a $397 deposit. Leave room for the Hertz wait before arranging anything immediately after pickup. Debit-card acceptance does not remove the hold: Hertz takes $264, so check your available balance before choosing it. If keeping that money available matters more, compare Europcar, which holds no deposit.

For up to 5 people with cases, pick an Economy at Guernsey Airport, the Opel Corsa or Peugeot 208 size at about $71 a day across the year. It seats 5 but takes 2 bags, so a full car means soft bags on laps. A couple can save a little with a Mini, a Kia Picanto, at $65 a day, though it takes 2 bags. A Compact, the Kia Ceed size, takes 3 bags and is $77 a day. 35% of rental cars at Guernsey Airport are automatic, at $94 a day against $70 for a manual, so search for one specifically or expect a manual. Hybrids are 7% of what is offered and there are no electric cars, so book one early rather than expecting to find one at the desk.
