I'm here now and managed to snag a decent rate prior to my trip. I wanted to mention why the rates may be high. First off, I'm at the BWV and there's a huge IT conference going on (Gartner). These folks have been here all week and they must number in the thousands. Also today starts the PGA golf event and National is a sponsor of this event. In the past National has supplied many cars for this event. Since
Alamo is from the same company, it may explain why there are no deals for these companies as their fleet may be pretty low. I don't have any concrete evidence, except from past experience. Normally the golf event is in early November, so that explains why this doesn't normally happen. I think the golf event is for the next 4-5 days. We are off to Universal today.....Good luck to those still trying to find a decent rate. If you're heading here, pack some warm clothes. The nights are going to be in the 50s and it's very chilly once the sun goes down. They are comparing this to December weather. 70s during the day and sunny which is nice. But sweatshirts are a must in the evenings and the mornings are chilly too! If you are going to do the halloween party, make sure you have some warmer clothes to wear under your costume. Cuddle duds are necessary!
