Alamo ***********

Does anyone use this? What is the skinny? How much does it cost to join? Do you see real saving with it? Thanks!

OOOPs I see a bunch of ********** I have a sinking feeling. Why can the Emeral Aisle be discussed but not Alamo's membership???

It doesn't cost anything to join. However, I don't think you can use any coupons and when you book you can only use the discount code provided with their program. I read this in program rules!! You are much better off just to book using other codes/coupons and use the "SaveTime before you go". Your putting in the same info and both require you to use kiosk which is quick and easy to do. Then you walk out and pick out your car.

Thanks! Just what I needed to know!

First - the name of the membership is *** out because that is the name of a company that has been banned from the Dis. It has nothing to do with Alamo.

Second - you can use all the same coupons and codes available to anyone. I use them all the time with no problem.

I fluctuate between using my Alamo QS and my National Emerald Aisle membership - just whoever is cheaper. With Alamo QS you have to stop at the booth out in the parking garage, but it just takes a few minutes - usually no other customers are there. With National you go straight to the car, no stopping. With both you pick out the car in the class you picked - or at whatever level your membership is.

I personally don't use any other rental company but these two when I go to Orlando.

I just signed up for QS -- and the online reservation system took coupons as it usually does. If I'm adding spouse as free additional driver (Alamo said is ok with QS), can I do that at kiosk? Thx for any input.

You should be able to add the additional driver with their info now. There should be a link that says "save time".

Thanks. I'll try that.

I'm suspect of the pre-register stuff because I don't want to blank out any codes or coupons.
