December 2012 Car Rentals

[piglet33]

Has anyone found any car rental codes for December 2012? I'm looking to pick up on Dec. 1 and return on Dec. 9.

Thanks!

I have rented a car from National with the KLM Flying Blue code 8572130 for a midsize 12/9 thru 12/16 for 221.16. - I signed up with the Flying Blue frequent flyer program on the KLM site - it is free. There has been a number of people on this board that has use the code and haven't had any problems.

The only downside that I have heard of is that you can't make changes or cancel the reservation on the website - you actually have to call the National to change it or cancel the reservation.

If you are an Emerald Club member(you can sign up off the link on Mousesavers - its free also) you can walk straight out and pick up your car off the Emerald aisle.

I just booked a minivan for 12/7-12/15 for $404.20 using the KLM and Emerald club. I signed up for the KLM frequent flyer on the KLM site as above.

The price is $12 less than the Budget price with the x474200and coupon MUWZ003.

-I have had only good experiences with National in Orlando

- I won't have to go to the counter.

-I can also add the weekly discount code when is is available for December tright now expires 9/15/12)

National at the Car Care Center, 11/30 to 12/7, 7 nights midsize using 5007160 and ND3Z33ZDE $30 BJ'S code, $215.75 total. It should go lower as we get closer to December.

What are your dates? It's hard to say if that's a good price without the dates / length of rental. That said, if you're OK with the price, I'd book it for now, and the keep watching to see if prices go down. That's the thing with car rentals - they don't take a prepayment, so it's easy to rebook if you find a cheaper rate.

I think prices are high.... Also have you checked hotwire? They have a trip watcher option that tells you when prices dropped (Semi kicking myself for when a compact was 12.95 a day a few weeks ago) However you do you have to pay up front....

I've secured a 'Standard' car through Alamo with insiders and BJ's coupon, Dec. 7 (10:00 AM) - Dec. 15 (5:00 PM) $188.22 with all taxes/fees included. Hoping to do better closer to trip date.

Where do you get the BJs code? Is it in the store? We haves membership but I've never noticed the discount codes before.

Through Costco using ID 7014627 and E-Coupon AD2359FDF for $35 off I get $147 inc taxes for a standard.

With Budget for a minivan from Dec 7 - 15 total is $329 inc taxes after coupon is applied when return vehicle. Use x474200 (travelocity code) and E-Coupon MUGZ029 for $30 off.

Not sure if anyone is government or military but we got a rate of $81 ($120ish with taxes and fees) for Dec 10-17 with Advantage. This was the leisure rate.

You guys with early December travel dates are getting some great rates so far . Our December 23 - 30 rental is sitting at $279 with taxes for a full-size (with Budget, using X474200 and a coupon for a free upgrade).

I know the holiday season will come at a premium but I am hoping we see some movement down to a more reasonable cost.

Anyone else looking for Christmas week? Or New Years week?

wow...using costco code, my dates are showing as compact for total of 153.00.....that is CHEAP!
