Our reservation is with National. Hope it's going to be OK. I'm going to check on the reservation again just to be sure. It was OK earlier this week when I checked it.
Do you think I should look into a back-up reservation with another company just in case?
OK, I just went to the National site, then to their parent company, ANC. Here's some of what I found there.

About Our Restructuring
On November 13, 2001, ANC Rental Corporation and its U.S. operating subsidiaries voluntarily filed petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy code in Wilmington, Delaware. The recent downturn in travel caused by the tragic events of September 11 makes this action necessary. The Chapter 11 filing does not include its International or Canadian operations, or its independent National franchisees.
ANC's Alamo and National brands are open and conducting business as usual at locations around the world. For specific location information, or to make a reservation, please refer to each brand's Web site,
www.alamo.com and
www.nationalcar.com.
As always, our focus is on continuing to provide the same high level of service and satisfaction which our customers have come to value since National began in 1947 and Alamo began in 1976.
The management and board of directors view this filing as a proactive and positive step for ANC. The restructuring program currently being implemented is designed to make ANC more efficient and competitive in today's vastly changed economic and travel landscape.
We anticipate emerging a stronger company, better positioned to serve leisure and business customers for years to come.
