Modified National Reservation - kept great rate!

[DebbieB]

I finally found a good price for air for our Dec 6 to 12 trip. USAir was running $258, I got it last night for $209. I had made a National reservation back on 3/4/03 when the prices were real low, $122 incl tax for a week, EA, full size, DC discount, $20 Ent. I have a reservation for BWV for 12/6 but thought we might go a day early because Saturday air is hard to get, so I made the National res for 12/5. Now that we are not going on Friday, I went in last night and tried to modify the res to Saturday hoping I could keep the great weekly rate. I did have to change it to intermediate to keep Emerald Aisle but it let me do it and the price went down to $113! I also had to change the coupon from $20 to $15 because we no longer had 7 days (different code). I got confirmations on the revised dates & info!

Does National have an Emerald Aisle at TPA?

Yes they do, according to National's website, but, National is offsite in Tampa. It is about a 5 min. ride.
