If you ever need to rent a car it will be worth your while to check out National Car Rentals "Emerald Club".  Our family has not used any other car rental agency for more than 5 years.   There is absolutely no charge to belong.  As an Emerald Club Member I completely bypass the car rental counters, go directly to the Emeral Club aisles at the airport...

On our last vacation we rented an economy car from a neighboring business to us, U-Save Car and Truck Rental. The service was impecable and we had a huge selection to chose from. The vehicle's were very clean, all we had to do was load our luggage into the trunk and go. You can chose their insurance or carry your own personal insurance. The rates beat everyone else here in town. They do hav...

Every time I go on vacation I book an Alamo Rental car.  They have very competitive prices and lots of specials.  I use the Entertainment book coupons for upgrades and free days.  If you use the Entertainment coupons remember you have to book directly with the Alamo Rental company.  If you use a travel site online, they will not honor the coupons at the rental...

We always rent from Alamo Car Rentals when we go to Kauai. The pick up point is at the airport in Lihue. You have to take a shuttle bus from the airport to the car rental, but they run every five minutes or so and when you land in Hawaii, somehow time becomes irrelevant anyway! But once you arrive at Alamo, everything is so easy! They have a kiosk for super fast checkout or you can get personal...

I went to Enterprise after getting hit at a four way stop.  It was right before Rita hit in '05, and people were coming up from the coastal towns for a save place to stay.  I had never seen so many cars in this little town of under 600.  There were so many people, they had a cop directing traffic.  When he pointed for me to go, a man on the main highway didn't s...

I travel often, so I spend a lot of time renting cars from various car rental companies.  Unfortunately I have had quite a few bad experiences, like many.  If I have time to plan ahead, I generally will rent vehicles from Alamo. After doing a complete price comparison across the board, including all the major car rental companies, Alamo will usually come out with the best price for me...

I used to be a US Government employee and had various bargain rental car companies for my business travel some very cheap some like avis a top notch competitor but never Hertz. About ten years ago, I joined a Government support contractor whom has a large contract with Hertz for all its rental car usage. Since then, I have used Hertz dozens of  times. Hertz may be more ...

For our recent vacation to Florida, my husband and I reserved a rental car online with Avis before leaving for our trip.  We knew we wouldn't be using the car much, so the only requirement was that it have air conditioning, so we reserved an economy car.When we got to the Avis counter at the Ft. Myers airport, the clerk behind the counter asked us, "Would you like to upgrade ...

My big 60th birthday was around the corner and we decided to make a travel weekend. I thought it might be fun to rent a smaller car so we could do as much travel, have road service and look spiffier. My car is a gas guzzler and Mike drives a box truck that gets about 5 miles per gallon, so, by renting a car for $16 plus tax we ended up saving money for our little journey. We only scheduled one ...

I by no means am an expert on travel options, but I do have to openly say I would never recommend anyone looking to rent a vehicle for travel to use Enterprise. My one and only experience with Enterprise was so confusing and irritating I had a migraine by the time I recieved the vehicle I had rented and began my trip. At one point, while standing in the Enterprise office, I actually consid...

I usually rent cars a few times a year. Sometimes I rent when I go on a trip, but other other times I rent cars when I need a vehicle to drive locally for various reasons. I normally rent from Budget Rent A Car because they have prices lower than the competition, they don't require a huge deposit, and you can rent with a debit card.Last August, I decided to take a trip up to Tennessee to vi...

I do all the travel booking for our office. I have tried many car rentals and for business purposes I can't find anyone who can beat Avis. I will admit sometimes they are a little more expensive than some of the others but the service they provide our guys can't be beat. I really like it because they make my job easier. I can set up profiles for all the guys that travel and don't ha...

  I recently booked Avis Car Rentals for my rental car needs.  I wanted something inexpensive that would get me from point A to point B and back again.  I had a coupon for a free day.  So when I called the clerk got me booked with an accurate quote.  She gave me a conformation number and suprisingly didn't ask for a credit card or anything.    Normally I b...

We rented a Car from Avis for our last trip to florida. The great thing about  Avis is  you can request a car and they will get it for even if they have to get it from another lot for you at no extra charge. The staff at Avis were very friendly and I would Highly recommend renting a car from them. We were able to make reservations on line and had no problem when we arrived to pic...

We have rented from Enterprise for over two years now.  One thing that really impresses my husband is the convenience of the business.  Another is the quality of the service and how quickly you get the car in hand.When we come back from a trip, he may only spend 10 minutes in the office.  They don't come out and look over the car with a fine tooth comb and look for anything t...

Taking the TransAlpine express from Christchurch, we pulled into Greymouth rail station exactly on time and went to pick up the car we had reserved through National Car Rental. We were in for a few surprises. On what we thought was the good side, my reservation for an intermediate car was upgraded to a full sized car. How nice we thought. WRONG! If we had any idea, at that time, of the roads we...

Normally when we vacation to Orlando, we rent a car at the Orlando International Airport.  Most of the time, we don't have a preference for one company; there are numerous on-site car rental companies, and they are all located beside one another, so we usually choose whichever company can give us the lowest rate.This particular decision backfired on us this time.  In the past, we ...

For our last trip to Disney, we decided we wanted to visit the beach for a few days.  Since we were flying, that meant we had to rent a car.  Being in the travel business, there are certain companies that I depend on when booking car rentals.  But, when it comes to my own travel, I hate to spend extra money.  So when I saw this company L&M had the cheapest rates (19.99/d...

Yes, it was as bad as it sounds! On a recent business trip to Jacksonville, Florida, we were glad to know that we could rent a car for me, from our hotel lobby. My husband's secretary had made the reservations well in advance, but when we arrived in town, and went to the hotel, we could sense there was a problem. The lady indicated that it had been reserved for around noon. W...

Last year our car was stolen and upon contacting my insurance company they arranged a car for pick up from Discount Car and Truck Rentals. I was to receive a call from Discount Car and Truck Rentals to arrange an appointment time to pick up the rental car until my car was recovered. I did receive the call but  the person who called me was not there when I returned the call. I wait for that...
