National Mid-Size SUV came up cheaper than economy car

[shonadamson]

I booked it from May 31- June 9 using the coupon on the site plus my emerald club membership plus the Sams club control code for 235 for that entire time. Will I be able to pick this vehicle up without waiting in line since I have an emerald club membership. Also the cheapest I could get economy for those dates the National was 239. Thank you to the board for your help. I will keep looking to see if I can get a better deal.

I believe in order to use emerald aisle with your emerald club membership you need to book an intermediate. I'm not sure if you could use emerald reserve with the SUV which would allow you to bypass the line.

If you booked it under Emerald, it is Emerald Reserve, and you still just go pick it out yourself. Just go to the Mid Size SUV section.

Thanks for the info - have always used EA but noticed our reservation said ER - must be right in the next row.

We had a Chevy Equinox LT this weekend from National (with leather and sunroof)! Really nice vehicle - congrats on the rate!

What are the codes that you used, OP? I am going May 5th to May 21st.

To those who have already used the Mid-Size SUV, can it fit 2 adults, a car seat and luggage comfortably?

Thanks.

Was 149.38 your total price? If so what codes did you use?

Thanks

Yep, that was the total. Used the Emerald code 5007125, and coupon code 10009795 for $25 off a SUV or Minivan.
