December 2016 Car Rental Watch

[kganous]

I like to start planning early and I haven't seen this thread started yet so here goes. We are visiting Dec 10 - 16. We like Alamo and have a full size reserved now for 201.50. Hoping for better rates!

Yes, going for a weekend in December. I've been checking around. Landed a mid size car for the weekend for $53.00.

Dollar is having a 24 hour flash sale so was able to shave a little off my reservation down to 190.00 now

Just tagging onto the thread, we need a minivan to seat 7 in december. Haven't flown and needed to rent in a long time, crossing fingers for a good deal! Nothing locked down yet

I need to rent from Nov 25 to Dec 5. So far, all I'm finding is $325-$350. I did the same time frame last year for only $220 or so.

I am here! Last year in December we got a great rate with Alamo on a minivan from Orlando to Tampa, for $237 and some change so hoping for that but RT from MCO this time!

We are flying in to MCO on Thursday, Dec 15th and flying out on Tuesday, Jan 3. I have a contract ID through my employer that provides a free additional driver from National so I usually use them. Right now my rate is $697 for the emerald aisle, so obviously hoping to get that down big time!!

How early do discounts tend to come out? Our trip's over Xmas/NYE so when should we start actively looking for deals?

I booked about 3 weeks ago with Alamo. Product code AS1. Contract ID 7014926. Coupon code AD3868JST. I got a 10 day full size for $231 including the taxes, etc. It's not prepaid, so I can cancel it if I find a better deal. I booked for the same dates last year though, and my best deal ended up being within a few dollars of this.

Are those codes open for anyone to use? I think the end date is before Jan.

I have no idea, as I read about them on a Disney Facebook group. Your best bet is to try to do a booking and see if they still work.

I just tried them and could book a 7 passenger minivan for 382 including taxes and fees for 12 days. Thats a great deal. It looks like anyone can use them, but its for a select amount of vehicles only as it blocked out certain ones I was looking at from the deal.

November 30th thru December 9th here....Our last trip....4 years ago???? We were able to get a super cheap rate of like $140 and got upgraded to a van! Alamo...hoping for a similar this year.

 

[Beemitchcowski]

I have heard and experienced our last trip...that through Alamo...if you rent a Fullsize...sometimes you get lucky and they don't have them so they will upgrade to a mini van.

Thank you for listing so many Alamo codes. I was booked with National for Dec 15 - Jan 3rd at almost $700 for Emerald Aisle. Your BJ's code got me down to $461 for a full size. Thanks!
