Rental car price

[jamen65]

Hi I was looking for a rental car the price I got for 6 days standard car with a booster and a child seat with the Disney Club discount was 209.30 from National. Does that sound right? I reserved it do they have to honor it if I have the print out from internet? This is the lowest price I have been able to find. The seats for the kids are expensive but we have to have them

My rate is $211 with DC contract # and a coupon for 10 days with Emerald Isle and a Full size car. No renting of a seat.

The kid seats are costing you $6 per day each, or $72 (plus taxes, etc) for your rental period. Can you bring your own seats? We always do. Anyway, the car rental car seats are pretty gross. Otherwise, I think your $209 is a good deal, especially if it includes taxes.

How gross are the seats? We are coming from NY with 2yo & 4 yo it might be hard to get everthing around, How do you handle this?

I didn't rent one, but I saw them piled up at the National counter at the Car Care Center near the MK. They looked fairly beat up and hard with little padding.

Since you are flying with your 2 year old, why don't you bring your own car seat for him or her to sit in on the plane. Both you and your child will more more comfortable. You can check the booster seat when you check-in. They'll put in a plastic bag so it doesn't get dirty and it'll come out with the rest of your luggage. You might have to rent a luggage cart for all your stuff or have a redcap at the airport check you in and take your luggage. The tip (about $1 per bag) is worth it! You can then go straight to the gate.

I usually gate-check my stroller and car seat. I have bags for both of them. My daughter is still under 2 and she lap sits if there is no available seat for her car seat.
