National rates down-mid June

[AllyBri]

If you're renting for 10 days or more, the rates are down to $121. a week, less then 10 days, the rates are lower then they were, just not $121. a week

 

[Lady Lady]

Thank you. I checked and they came down over the weekend, but this is even lower. 11 days was 360 over the weekend 200, now 182. Half of what is was.

What codes are you using? We are flying into Sanford and I can't get it below $500 for 2 weeks. We will be there from June 20th-July 5th. I am hoping to find a last minute deal.

Thanks for the heads up that the prices are starting to get better!

 

[OzFan]

Well, I think there is hope yet! Maybe the "last minute" deals are going to be the norm from now on.

Thanks for posting. Let's keep our fingers crossed for September rates!

I need some codes, too -- just changed plans and will need a rental from 6/28 to 7/7. BLEH!!!! I hate trying to do plane ressies and car rentals last minute.....

I am also flying into Sanford. The best deal I found was renting one day from Sanford to Orlando. Then the rest of the time Sanford to Orlando and of course last day Orlando to Sanford. Hope that makes sense.

Thanks Allybri for posting. I know you always have my back when it comes to rental. Of course my next trip is July so I'm always watching. I did crunch your numbers and you're absolutely right. Whether it's 7 days or 10 days, the total is still the same, so the longer you rent the better the per day price. That is funny as I've never seen them do that before. While most of the codes are giving you a 10% reduction off the low base price, there was one that offers more. 5007125 offers additional amounts, plus the $35 on site coupon, but code 6600422 offers the highest additional discount. I will be watching for a decrease for July as it gets closer.

What is the 5007125 code associated with?

 

[VAN]

Nevermind ... I see that it is the code for Emerald Club members.

Thanks for the tip. Mine dropped from $240 to $207 last week to $181 today (8 days, intermediate EA, $35 off).

 

[MinnieMe2]

Well -- I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I can't get much below $500 for nine days (6/28 - 7/7). I think we're in trouble......

 

[PooohBear]

OP thanks for the heads up !! been checking rates for MONTHS and was going to settle using a "questionable" code since i'm leaving tomorrow, but using 5007125 and the $35 off, this is the cheapest rate yet !!

first, 9 days seems to bring up the good base rate of ~ 109$

second, the bad part it probably only applies to rentals within the next couple weeks that is anything booked for nine days

june 18th seems to be the day where the base rate changes to ~207

 

[AllyBri]

Rates are now down to $109.xx a week.
These are for longer rentals 9-10 days plus (for now anyway)

AllyBri,

You are my hero today

For June 11-21, I originally had a 1 day reservation for a full size, picking up at MCO and returning at the Dolphin with using a free day that I had coming...total charge was $5.35. I then had a separate reservation for a full size for June 12-20, picking up and returning at the Dolphin which totaled $202.00, which I thought was fairly good but left us one day short on our vacation...no big deal, just take Magical Express back to the airport.

Today's price for June 11-21 inclusive for a full size/Executive Selection with Emerald Club (I put the free day back in my bank and got an extra day at the end of the trip so I can just return to MCO...$182.57

The total money saved totaled about $65.00, not to mention that I ended up with an extra day and I don't have to mess around returning/picking up a car again on day 2 of the vacation

I love these boards!!!! I called National and just saved another $80.00 off my rental, I also just got an email for $35.00 off a rental too. That makes a savings of around $120/121 for today!!! We are Emerald Club members too! We can't wait until June 9!!!!!

I am now at 164. Emerald Aisle Intermediate at the airport 6/12-6/22

Mine has not moved at all, in fact it went up.
National Executive Aisle, full-size, pickup at MCO, drop off at TPA
total with all fees $210.58. 6/27 to 7/2, 6 day rental
We wanted at least a mid-size since we are driving over 200 miles. executive status the mid-size and the full size were the same.
We are driving from MCO to The Villages, The Villages to St. Petersburg, SPB to Tampa airport.
I used AARP 6100120 and $35 E coupon.

It seems only to be working on longer rentals for now.

Hello everyone:

I'm not having much luck. I'm an Emerald Club member, needing to rent a car for 10 days from Sanford and I have tried both codes (6600422 and 5007125) with the $35 coupon with no luck. I'm finding rates for $401-base rate. Hmmm...
