Codes, Codes, Codes... I am so sick of codes

[Donnask8pro]

Why can't we all just get the same discount instead of punching in different codes a thousand different ways. All that said and done... I need help. I need a minivan from Nov 25 (9:00 pm) to Dec 5th (7:30 am). Rates are crazy. Any suggstions? This is almost as bad as trying to get good airline rates. Maybe worse....Why can't they make this easier for us?

Thanks for the help. I thought that people were having problems w/ L&M? No?

I am not sure of any problems...I have never used L & M though...I always use National, but I put your dates in and came up with around $800.00 for those dates. BTW, we are neighbors..I live in Voorhees, NJ.

Hey neighbor... Ever been to HIgh Ridge the skating rink?

I had Dollar at 403.00 and did not book it because of my flights. I did not realize I could modify after booking. So I screwed up...so hard. I always used to use a travel agent. Need to learn to do this myself. Thanks

Actually I have...I had my DD's birthday there last year, and she wants to have it there again this year. I wonder why your rates are so high...is this during Thanksgiving week???

 

[Donnask8pro]

The rink closed. Its no longer a skating rink. But I was one of the figure skating coach's there. I now work at other rinks. My picture was on the wall.

Anyway, I get there Fri night after Thanksgiving day. We are there for 10 days. But the base prices is high also. Maybe its to early? I hope so. I need a way better price..

 

[Donnask8pro]

I still need a car!!! Help. Anybody see the prices coming back to reality?

We're renting just for the drive from the airport. Would like a car for the whole time, but can't justify it.

We had planned to rent a car but are ending up using a town car service to and from the airport. Costs seem to be ridiculous for our dates of 11/27 - 12/3. I'm going to keep checking but if they don't go down we'll keep the service. I figure with the grocery store stop for breakast food we should come out about even.

The rental rates seem to have gone sky high! Do you think that the free WDW transportation is having this much of an effect? In all my years of flying to FL, I've never seen rates this high.

I'm there Nov 25th to Dec 5th also. I am staying part of the time off site. AUGGHHHH
