    I am also interested in hearing about this topic. The one thing I found is that the rates differ (for the American companies at least) based on whether you book on the US website (ie: http://www.avis.com) vs the israeli website (ie http://www.avis.co.il). With the israeli site being cheaper (for the 1 or 2 times I checked). I think you will do better calling the Israeli phone numbers vs calling the US phone numbers. two years ago, Avis gave me Shabbos for free because I told them I was shomer shabbos. The office in Jerusalem (Kind David) gave me Shabbos free, the next year I picked the car up at Ben Gurion, and they wouldn’t give me shabbos free.

    Prices are much more expensive at the airport. All places i’ve rented from in Yerushalayim, including sixt, hertz and avis all gave shabbos off (excluding insurance).

    The best (and cheapest) way i found to rent a car in E”Y was through an American travel agency. The guy i use has gotten me cars for considerably less than others including free or cheap upgrades. His name is Yigal (I don’t even know the name of the travel agency) and his number is (718)338-0417. They will give you the exact amount it will cost and you won’t find any more fees when returning your car.
