Car rental in Jamaica doesn't have to cost a fortune — if you know where to look and how to book. At Kennedy Car Rental, we keep our promotions honest, stackable, and available directly to you without going through a middleman that charges a 20% platform fee before you even see the price. This guide covers every active deal, our 2025 rate guide, and the exact steps to claim your discount.
Our Active Deals Right Now
All of the following promotions are currently active and can be claimed by booking directly with Kennedy Car Rental — either by phone, WhatsApp, or email. Third-party booking platforms cannot apply these rates.
Early Bird Offer — Save 10%: Book your rental at least 7 days before your arrival date and receive 10% off your total rental cost. Applies to all vehicle categories, from economy sedans to full-size SUVs. No promo code needed — just mention it when you call or message.
Free Airport Pickup at Sangster International: Every direct booking includes a complimentary meet-and-greet pickup at Sangster International Airport (MBJ), Montego Bay. Our driver meets you at arrivals with your name on a board. No taxi, no shuttle, no extra charge. Taxis from MBJ typically cost $35–$50 USD — you keep that money.
Weekly Rate: Pay for 6, Drive for 7: Every 7-day rental automatically includes one free day. This stacks on top of the early bird discount — meaning a week-long booking made 7+ days in advance gets both the free day and 10% off the remaining 6 days.
Free Child/Infant Seat on Request: Travelling with children under 12? We include a free child or infant car seat when you book direct. Third-party platforms typically charge $10–$15 USD per day for this. Over a 7-day rental that's up to $105 in savings.
Returning Customer Loyalty Rate: Booked with us before? Ask about our returning customer discount when you call. We value loyalty and reward it with a reduced daily rate on your next booking.
