Europcar, the largest rental company of European origin and a wholly owned subsidiary of Germany’s Volkswagen Group, will be offering Thomsonfly customers preferential car hire rates at all Thomsonfly destinations. Europcar will also make available a variety of special offers throughout the year for customers booking car rental with Thomsonfly.

Europcar and World of TUI joined forces in May 2003 ensuring holidaymakers were offered a high quality product at a competitive price.

Mark Richards, Director, Leisure Sales, Europcar International commented, "We are thrilled that our partnership with the World of TUI goes from strength to strength. The launch of Thomsonfly proves yet again that travel is an increasingly competitive business. Holidaymakers are constantly looking for value for money, but still expect a high level of service. Both Europcar and Thomsonfly are wholly committed to that."

Whatever the occasion Europcar has the perfect vehicle. Europcar supply a choice of vehicles from premier manufacturers, such as Volkswagen, Audi, Seat and Skoda, Mercedes, Rover, Renault and Fiat. What’s more, our rental vehicles are never more than 6 months old or will exceed 14,000 miles. And to ensure our service is never compromised, after every rental, each vehicle undergoes a rigorous 32 point maintenance check and valet.
