Car rental company helps stranded bus users

With the ongoing Bus Eireann strike, Enterprise Rent-A-Car is waiving the standard one way fee for those planning to travel during the duration of the strike, writes Trish Whelan.

Commuters inconvenienced by the strike can rent a vehicle with Enterprise and drop it off at a different location at no extra cost.

The Enterprise Rent-A-Car 'we'll pick you up' policy will continue to stand during this period where Enterprise staff will happily pick a customer up from their preferred location, be it home or at work, and similarly drop them back when they return the vehicle.

George O'Connor, Managing Director at Enterprise Rent-A-Car Ireland says "This means that for those who wish to rent a car from one of our branches and travel to a different destination, they won't be charged the standard rental fee for dropping the car off at one of our other branches."

Disrupted bus travellers can also avail of the Enterprise Rent-A-Car's weekend special rate starting at €15.99 per day (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) for a small car - Fiat Panda or equivalent which includes basic level insurance cover to include third party costs.
