Did you know that the 2010 Winter Olympics are going to be held in Vancouver? Even if you aren’t going to the Winter Olympics in 2010, if you are planning a trip to Vancouver, there are certain things you need to do ahead of time. One thing you need to figure out is how you are going to get around once you arrive in Vancouver. If you are like most travelers, your answer to this question is going to be a rental car.

Fortunately for you, there are quite a few rental car companies located directly at the Vancouver airport. The rental car companies you will find in this airport include National, Alamo, Hertz, Avis, Thrifty, Dollar and Budget. Even though their locations aren’t directly in the airport, Enterprise and Discount also have locations nearby.

While you can just wait until you get to Vancouver to find a rental car, it’s much easier to make your arrangements online. Not only will making your reservation online save you money (it’s easy to compare prices online, plus there are lot of exclusive online deals), but it will also allow you to pick-up your rental car in a matter of minutes once you arrive in Vancouver.
