We are planning on renting thru Alamo or National preferrably, a one way rental so I can return to Car care center after 3 days.:cloud9:

I am getting quotes for $50-$60/day and I see way better deals on priceline and hotwire.:scared1:

Has anyone done this before? Will they do one way? What's the chance of getting an offsite rental company?:confused3

Any thoughts?:eek:
 
I use PL and Hotwire for rental cars all the time. If you choose airport pickup, you will get an airport car. At the worst, there might be a free shuttle, but it would be an onsite location. You won't need a cab or anything like that. You can do one-ways as well.

Keep in mind that you can almost always get PL for less than what Hotwire advertises. I generally undercut the Hotwire rate by 15-30% when putting in my PL bid. I have never had a problem with PL in any way. Even with a PL reservation, we've been able to pick up our car using the computerized check-in for the places that have it. I use PL for pretty much all my rental car bookings and most of my hotels as well. The deals just can't be beat.
 
Jelo, I'm not sure what dates you're looking for, but realize that prices for February and beyond haven't dropped yet and normally do closer to your rental date.
 
We are going the 1st two weeks of March...and you're right the prices are pretty high! Some of my quotes for 3 days are higher than other quotes for a week for some!
I am trying to wait patiently, but I always feel better when everything is booked and paid for!!
Thanks everyone!
