KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Tupelo

  • Save yourself the inconvenience of relying on the public transport sector to reach your destinations by getting a cheap car rental when you visit Tupelo. When visiting Tupelo, you envision an easy experience to enjoy every moment of your stay. Getting a rental car in Tupelo will guarantee your trip's full benefits. Other than maneuvering through the streets, you can access other destinations away from the city without hassle. Other benefits you will enjoy when you get a car rental in Tupelo are accessing many places on the same day, sticking to your budget, and having timely trips.
  • Driving in Tupelo is relatively simple, and visitors should have no trouble getting around the city but there are several roads that are key for an easier time when driving cheap car rentals in Tupelo. For instance, Mississippi Highway 6 runs east-west through Tupelo and is an important route for getting to neighboring cities such as Oxford and Pontotoc and Main Street runs through the heart of downtown Tupelo and is a crucial road for getting around the city center. To navigate these roads easily, be sure to follow the speed limit and watch out for heavy traffic during peak hours.
  • If you are landing at Tupelo (TUP) Airport, there are many car rental agencies you can book your car rentals. Some of the most popular and reliable Tupelo car rental agencies include Budget, Enterprise, U-Save, Avis, Alamo, and Hertz. You can get these rental car agencies at the lower level of every terminal within the airport. For best deals, talk to as many agencies as possible before you settle on one car rental agency in Tupelo.
  • If you're traveling to Tupelo with a child, it's important to know the child seat rules in the state. According to Mississippi law, children under the age of 4 must be secured in an approved child restraint system. Children who are 4-7 years old must also be properly restrained in a child booster seat or kid's car seat unless they weigh more than 65lbs or are 4'10" and above.
  • Jaywalkers are common in the city. They may cross the streets without giving you signals. Thus, it's important to be very careful when driving your car rental in Tupelo. Aside from jaywalkers, the city has many cyclists using the same lines as motorists. You must be cautious when approaching and overtaking them because some typically overlook traffic light regulations. Again, expect icy and snowy in the city when visiting during the winter. You should be on the lookout because the streets might be challenging to navigate.
  • While the roadways in Tupelo are generally safe, there are a few areas that require extra caution when driving Tupelo car rentals. In downtown Tupelo, for example, roads can be congested with both pedestrian and vehicle traffic, especially during peak hours. When driving in this area, be sure to watch for pedestrians, follow the posted speed limits, and be prepared to stop if necessary. Interstate 22 is a major highway that runs through Tupelo and can be busy with traffic, especially during peak travel times. When driving on I-22, watch out for merging traffic, and be aware of changing weather or road conditions.
  • Tupelo is one of the worst hits with substantial traffic issues. Maneuvering Tupelo streets can be overwhelmingly exhaustive and frustrating, especially during rush hours. For instance, you should expect long delays on Shady Grove RD. at Epsilon Dr./ Tupelo Dr. Derwood, Poplar Avenue, and Ridgeway Road, Walnut Grove Road at Farm Road. You can use alternative roads like Poplar Avenue at E Parkway and N Parkway at McLean Boulevard. Naturally, rush hours in Tupelo are mostly witnessed during the morning and evening hours. Avoid traveling during rush hours by arriving at your destination earlier or after the rush hours. Alternatively, you can use streets that are not much affected.

KAYAK
The rental was not through Budget but was from shady subcontractor residing on the KAYAK app, That vendor was called QEEQ.com. This company cancelled the reservation under the guise that there were no cars available in the rental class that they had offered. To make matters worse, they had another QEEQ.com/KAYAK subcontractor called RentalCover.com sell me insurance coverage of my rental that never happened. I was never charged by QEEQ.com since they cancelled the reservation but RentalCover.com kept their $52 charge on my credit card. This was ridiculous since the rental never even happened! I had to file a charge dispute claim with my credit card company because RentalCover.com is some shady foreign entity and had no way to contact them to discuss the original rental car cancellation. I blame KAYAK was this issue and have since removed the KAYAK app from all of my devices and will never use this unethical service again. I will not hesitate to share my bad experience with KAYAK to anyone I know.
