Paying $207.80 for 10 days starting November 1st. LAX Alamo.
since we don't own a car we DO need to purchase extra insurance, but that is just ridiculous!
Check with your cc company, you may not need to purchase the extra insurance as some offer the coverage.
Another vote for Costco travel. I almost always use Costco and book with Alamo. You can book without any payment or deposit. If the rate goes down, you can easily rebook. They often have "hot deals" the week of your trip, so check back often up until your travel dates. I've gotten as low as $15 a day.
We went with Hertz and a AAA discount, prepaid. Worst experience ever at John Wayne Airport. No car for us. We could upgrade for $40 more. I said no. So they made us wait another 40 minutes and then gave us the same car they had offered before for the extra $40!
Then we had to walk to our car, about 5 blocks, lugging the luggage. We must have walked past 100 cars that they would not let us have.
Never again, Hertz!
