I didn t include those sites, because Kayak is confusing and sneakily includes Hotwire car rental ads in the search results.  Hotwire reservations are non-cancellable whereas reservations prestigious hotels and resorts via the Southwest website can be cancelled and there is no penalty for not picking up the car.
In my experience, Southwest usually returns prices which are comparable to CarRentals.com Kayak and sometimes cheaper since you earn Southwest points for car rentals when booking a car rental with preferred rental car partners.
Southwest also has discount codes with certain rental car companies which sometimes leads to cheaper rates.  You can find the individual discount codes on this page and can enter them in the main search box here so that you can see all the results at once.
So I prefer booking a car rental on either the Costco Travel website or on the Southwest website since I know that I have a confirmed reservation which I can always cancel for no penalty in case I find a better deal elsewhere!
You earn at least 600 Southwest points when you rent a car, and pay for it with a credit card, with Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, Hertz, Thrifty National car rental.  Each Southwest point is worth 1.67 cents towards Wanna Get Away fares, so earning 600 points means that you are getting $10 in free Southwest travel.
You also don t need the Southwest credit card to access the portal, though it helps to have a Southwest frequent flyer number so that you can earn points for your rental.  There is currently a 750 point bonus for signing up for Rapid Rewards.
Southwest also has discount agreement with some of its partners, but you have to manually prestigious hotels and resorts enter those codes and compare prices.  You can find the individual discount codes on this page and can enter them in the main search prestigious hotels and resorts box here so that you can see all the results at once.
At $265 for Payless or $286 for Dollar, the Southwest website is more expensive than the Chase Ultimate Rewards  Citi Thank You portals, but  less expensive than Hotwire and unlike Hotwire, the reservation can be cancelled with no penalty.  If you add in the bonus Southwest points for renting through a preferred prestigious hotels and resorts partner, the rental prestigious hotels and resorts is cheaper than from Hotwire.
prestigious hotels and resorts 3.  Earning Miles/Points.   You earn 600 Southwest points ( ~$10 towards airfare) for any rental via a preferred car rental partner (Alamo, prestigious hotels and resorts Avis, Budget, Dollar, Hertz, Thrifty National).  The Southwest website makes it easy to see if a rental car company is a preferred partner or not.
You can also earn 1,200 (~$20 towards airfare) to 2,400 points (~$40 towards airfare) for longer rentals via preferred car rental partners.  All you have to do is book a car rental from the Southwest website and enter your Southwest frequent flyer number.
But it sometimes is fairly close (especially to Costco and Hotwire ) and the Southwest points earned could make it a better choice than other websites, especially since you can cancel the reservation prestigious hotels and resorts for no penalty.

United and Delta allow you to use miles and/or miles and cash to book a hotel or rental car; for Delta you have to do to Skymiles, then Shopping prestigious hotels and resorts and you will see Book Hotel Car; with Delta they say the points are non-refundable if you change or cancel your reservation even outside of the cancellation date but if you tell them you want to re-deposit and then you are going to re-book, they will charge prestigious hotels and resorts you $35 to re-deposit your miles. Don t let them tell you if you cancel you lose your miles; it isn t true.
Thanks for sharing this blog. Now I know where to go for rentals that are quite cheap considering the continued increase in rental prices. I believe that these companies are being practical and not just make up their own prices.
