Been quoted £72 and upwards for 3 day hire from Belfast airport, is this the going rate?

seems a pretty good deal for a relatively short hire to me!

Cheap - check it's not limited mileage tho.

Looks an ok rate, but a rate for what? A micra or a mondeo?, check what extras you're going to be presented with when you pick up though - brutal excesses to blackmail you into taking out pricy damage waivers, mean daily mileage and excess milage charges, funny games with fuel etc, all carefully excluded from the price you're quoted.

On a quote of £70 you could in fact be spending around £100 on the day you get the keys

Cheers, have also got a quote for £57 (all for mini car) will look at extras.

Not sure if it's worth it vs buses and taxis.

If you can get to a non airport branch it will probably be a bit cheaper, but obviously more hassle. Enterprise are decent fro friday to monday hires. £72 from an airport is pretty good.
