Online, June 8, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Demand for car hire for the 2012 Olympic Games has surged recently according to leading online car hire specialist 121Carhire.com. With the Games less than 50 days away the site is advising people to book in advance if they want to get plenty of choice and availability of cars this coming summer.
121Carhire.com reports that nearly half of its recent bookings have been for the period of 20 July to 11 August 2012. The site has also seen a surge in bookings from far-flung locations, with sports fans in places such as New Zealand, Malaysia and Hong Kong all making bookings through the website.
Michael Bond, spokesperson for 121carhire.com, commented, "With under 50 days to go to the start of the Olympics we've seen a real spike in bookings for car hire in the UK. The demand has come from both domestic bookings and also from people overseas making bookings for pickup at Heathrow and Gatwick and other major airports."
"As so many people are set to arrive on UK shores to enjoy the Games there will be fewer rental cars to go round - so we recommend getting your hire car reserved as soon as possible to give yourself plenty of choice and the best chance of a good value deal."
