What's on the Emerald Aisle? **2014**

[OrangeCountyCommuter]

BTW, there was a Chevy Charger in the Executive Aisle - teenage son wanted me to get that one. Luckily I'm not an Executive member. But how does one become an executive member?

I'm terrible with car models but there were a TON of cars, small SUVs, and minivans on the EA today around 3:30 p.m. Every space was filled and there were more SUVs and minivans than cars. I took a Jeep Compass that I'm happy with--there were lots of them, plus Nissan Rogues and similar Kias. I'd been very afraid of ending up with something small but did a lot of fretting for no reason!

Anyone have any current information? Thanks.

Sadly, so many of the other rental companies have been offering much better deals than national. I fear this might be my last year as an executive member. I don't mind paying a little more, but it's getting harder to get a decent deal with national. Thank goodness the klm code is back as it's the only way to get a good deal lately. I'm booked with alamo for my October trip and budget for my November trip. I sure hope I see better rates as the time gets closer.

What is the klm code, please. Thank you.

8572130. You need to join KLM club, but it is free.

Thank you.....I tried it but it was quite a bit higher than the rate I already have, but I've put it on my list to try next time.

Just flew into MCO for a conference yesterday (bring so close to the Happiest Place on Earth and being stuck at the OCC is torture...).

Emerald Aisle A side was full, as was Executive. Nice mixture of sedans and a couple of small SUVs on Emerald - saw a Traverse, a Charger, and some other bigger cars on Executive. We snagged a Ford Fusion (three adults in my party), and it was on the "normal" aisle. Couldn't be happier.

Thanks. Which side? Emerald or executive. We are booked with them for October and November. Of course that could change with last drops with alamo. Hope you got a good rate.

Came in Thursday at noon. Side B. Both executive and aisle had cars, small SUVs and a few mini vans. Executive had a couple of pickups


I had a luxury reserved and that aisle has...,,,nothing. LOL

They took me to Alamo where they had one option a Volvo SUV which I took. It was nice but I won't take it again. Never could get the steering in a position I liked

 

[mkymouse4ever]

Good luck everyone

Picked up yesterday from the regular aisle around 5. Didn't notice the specific makes and models, but the above description fits well. There were also a pickup or two on the regular aisle. There was one minivan and we took it.

Side A, Saturday 10/11/14, around noon, Emerald Aisle. The Aisle was pretty full. I saw one BIG truck, one minivan, about a half dozen SUVs, and about 18 sedans, evenly mixed between midsize and full sized. We took a Toyota Rav 4 that I really liked but it had a HUGE blind spot. I used a BJs coupon and KLM code back in March and got the vehicle for $154 for the week!
