Car Rental

Looking to rent a minivan for pickup and drop off at LAX from 11 - 25 May.
All online quotes I do now come back with rates around $900US for the total
rental. Does anyone have any discount codes for this period. Has anyone
used Enterprise, are their vehicle new or old?

Thanks

Using www.bnm.com I get a rate of $749,68 from Alamo; Dollar, Thrifty and
Enterprise all quote $781 for this period and location.

Has anyone used Enterprise, are their vehicle new or old?

I'm not sure about Enterprise, but I don't remember getting an "old" car
from
any company.

From Alamo I get $645.64 (inclusive of taxes and fees, but no extra
insurance) from:
"http://www.alamo.com/index.do?action=/hotDealsTemplate&msg=affil_costco_25off_coupon"

The Alamo coupons from the Entertainment book give the same discount.

I rented a minivan from Enterprise last year in SLC. It was fine. Since
I didn't reserve a van, and didn't want one due to the fuel costs at the
time, they gave me all sorts of discounts at pick-up time. When I
dropped the car off and told them of some minor problems they took more
off. I find that the rental agencies appreciate it if you tell them of
any problems, and will at least give you a coupon for a future rental.

Try FOX - I checked your dates - minivan about $270/week

I used FOX a year or so ago and they were fine.

Alamo charges, or did, extra for some things other companies like Avis
don't like a second driver who is a spouse.

When we have rented from Enterprise, they were OK but also had
additional charges others included. Of course if there is only one
driver it wouldn't matter but there may be other unexpected charges
from Enterprise or Alamo.

Do you carry your marriage certificate with you? How do you
prove it's your spouse?

Just out of pure curiosity, because some company - I don't remember
which one - once accepted my sister as a second driver free of
charge (same surname), but not her husband (different name and,
to make things worse, different nationality) - I assume they charge
or don't charge whoever they like, whatever they like.

We call it free enterprise: they are free to decline your business and YOU
are free to look elsewhere to rent a vehicle.

Avis and others have never asked us for proof but Alamo and Enterprise
have charged extra for any additional driver. I suspect Avis, etc.
have some way of knowing from past rentals. Often only one person is
asked for a license. But we look honest. G

I don't know the answer to your questions.
