I just made an Alamo reservation through Costco for Monday Feb 19 and was able to checkin online and print a skip the counter bar code. A small SUV was a few bucks cheaper than a Compact car so that's what I will have.Well they didn’t ask to see any proof of Costco membership at the Alamo counter in terminal C. There was no line and if we weren’t two hours early for our ressie we would’ve been out pretty fast. (She had to adjust our ressie so that we could keep our price the same). We had reserved an economy because it was only two of us. They told us to pick from the intermediate aisle which had almost all small SUV’s. We took a Kia.
I originally had a reservation through Avis because I could just return it at Cabana Bay at Universal, but Avis wouldn't let me add my credit card to my profile because it is already on DH's profile. That is the card with our primary rental car insurance. It's on my Budget profile, and they are the same company, but no dice. So I cancelled it. Alamo returning at the airport and grabbing an Uber to Universal will still be cheaper than the Avis, which I was going with for convenience.
