Know the market

Renting a car at San Juan Airport — what the data says.

What's a good daily rate for a rental car at SJU?
Across the windows we track, all-in economy rates at SJU have ranged from roughly $22 to $123 per day depending on the pickup date and how far out you book. Major brands keep a smaller footprint at this airport, so we track all operators as a single market here.
Do these rates include taxes and fees?
Yes. Every number on this page is the total price — rental, taxes, and fees — divided by the number of rental days, exactly as quoted at booking. No teaser base rates that double at checkout.
What drives rental car prices at San Juan Airport?
San Juan's rental market runs on local and value operators — the major brands keep smaller fleets here, so the all-operators view is the one to watch. Winter high season and cruise traffic drive demand from December through April; summers are softer outside holiday weeks.
When should I book a rental car for San Juan?
We don't predict. We show what rates actually did for each pickup date as it approached, so you can judge whether today's quote is high or low against its own history. For the mechanics of why rates move, read our field notes: when in the booking cycle rates tend to move and how rates move after you book.
