In the spring, many bird species migrate from their warm-weather summer habitats to the North. Ditto lots of rental cars: This year, four of the six biggest names in car rentals are offering special one-way rates to travelers who will pick up cars in Florida (and Arizona) and drop them off as far north as Maine or Minnesota.
