The business travelers (and even many leisure travelers) won't blink an eye.I strongly suspect that if some of the diehard rental car bookers here encountered credit card requirements, they would avoid that company.
Now, when National/Alamo implements this, I expect more of an uproar.
It seems by the replies here that freq flyers wouldn't have a problem with a credit card guarantee. Surprised we haven't heard from the other side yet!
