I want to say my feeling first. On this booking I kind of earned money without doing anything. I was planning a business trip to Hyannis in the US. I needed a car for about half a month there. I booked through QEEQ and chose an Avis car. The plan was to pick up the car in Hyannis around early September in the morning a little after ten. It was a Toyota RAV4 or same group. I like this kind of car because it has enough space for my luggage and samples. When I book cars for work there are always many small things in my mind. Time, car type and price. I checked the order and then I moved my focus back to my meetings and visits. I did not plan to keep checking the price again and again. Later I saw a new order email from them and I got nervous for a second. I thought maybe something was wrong. When I looked closer I saw that it was because I chose the Price Drop Protector service on my booking. Their system found a lower price and made a new booking for me. The car level stayed the same, the pick up and drop off were still in Hyannis, about mid or late September, around ten o clock in the morning. The only thing that changed was the order number and the price. At that moment I was surprised. In my head I already accepted the old price. Now they made a cheaper booking and sent the difference back to me. I checked the amount and it was around fifty dollars. For a business traveler like me this amount is not huge but the feeling is different. I felt like I got extra budget without any extra work. I checked the bill more than once. There was no strange fee. It was simply that the price dropped and they rebooked and refunded the difference. I felt happy and also relaxed. It was like someone helped me watch the price while I was busy with my project. On business trips I usually like to finish the booking in one time so nothing will change and confuse the plan. I have meetings, client visits and internal talks to handle. My brain is already full. So when I saw the automatic new booking I was a bit worried. I thought maybe at the Avis counter they could not find my record or there would be some problem. I checked the new order details carefully. The pickup and drop off were both at the same Hyannis location, the dates still covered my trip days and the time was still a bit after ten in the morning. The car group did not go lower. My worry started to go away. It felt more like a free upgrade in price. When I finally arrived in Hyannis I went to the Avis counter with my luggage. I gave the staff the new order number. The process was normal. The staff checked my info and asked me to sign, then handed me the key. I looked at the price again. It matched the new lower price from the rebooking. They did not charge extra. I thought to myself that without Price Drop Protector I would have paid the higher original price and never known that there was a drop. Just this thought made me feel a bit lucky. For business trips every saved amount is more than just a number. Sometimes it lets me be a bit more flexible. For example this time the saved forty plus dollars went into a work dinner with a local partner. It was not a fancy dinner but I knew in my mind that it was paid by that automatic price change. While I was sitting in the restaurant I suddenly remembered the moment I saw the email, and I felt this service fits people like me who travel for work a lot. The best part is that I did almost nothing during the whole process. I just booked the car and lived my normal life. They watched the price. When it went down they changed the booking and sent back money. I used to be a bit doubtful about services that say they watch prices. I worried there might be many limits or that it was only marketing words. This time I saw the real number on my bill so the trust became stronger. For me this was like having someone take care of small money details while I focus on bigger work tasks. When I was in the office changing slides or walking between meetings with my phone in my hand, the car booking sat in the background but was not forgotten. They were still watching it. Then when I came to pick up the car everything worked like normal, only the price was lower. Driving the RAV4 around Hyannis I felt lighter. My trip budget looked better and I felt I managed this part of the trip well. It gave me a small feeling of being taken care of. And it all started with one booking that used Price Drop Protector. For a business traveler like me this service really makes sense.
