RICHMOND, VA, March 23, 2022 – Drivers are hitting the road to Orlando, Los Angeles and Phoenix this Spring Break, according to travel insurance and assistance provider Allianz Partners’ review of the top rental car locations for Spring Break 2022. Warm-weather and outdoor destinations fuel the spirit of windows down, open road exploration with Tampa, Las Vegas, Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Fort Meyers, Honolulu and Denver rounding out the top 10.
Even with gas prices topping $4 per gallon nationwide, traveling by car brings families together and makes the journey a memorable part of the overall experience. To generate this year’s list, Allianz Partners USA reviewed 30,000* rental car reservations for mid-February thru mid-April from its partners that offer Allianz Rental Car Damage Protector. The car rental findings are in line with a recent survey of the company’s airline customers that found that 81% of travelers taking Spring Break trips in 2022 will be traveling within the continental U.S.
“Gas prices are on everyone’s mind, but they aren’t dampening Americans’ desire to hit the road for Spring Break,” said Daniel Durazo, director of external communications for Allianz Partners USA. “Choosing Allianz’s Rental Car Damage Protector over rental car counter collision damage products can help travelers secure the coverage, benefits and service they need at a reasonable cost, preserving funds for vacation experiences and souvenirs.”
Allianz Partners offers its Rental Car Damage Protector through leading travel providers and directly to consumers as an alternative to the typically higher priced collision damage insurance products that are offered at rental car counters. The product provides primary coverage, includes no deductible, can be purchased for domestic or most overseas rentals and is backed by Allianz’s award-winning customer service and 24/7 travel assistance. Rental Car Damage Protector** plans also include $500 in Trip Interruption coverage, which can be used to reimburse travelers for the unused portion of their pre-paid expenses or for extra unexpected transportation expenses when insured customers have to cut their trip short due to a reason covered by their policy.
