I just made a reservation for this weekend at ewr using costcotravel.com

they quoted me a third of any of the other major rental companies for an alamo reservation

you do need a costco membership though

I have a Costco membership and I reserved a car but its not for me. Will they want to verify on location that your a Costco member?

I did as well. But than I booked through Alamo using the Costco code and it was even cheaper because I was able to add the $30 off coupon.

Same here. It came out 25% cheaper this way than with Costco travel

Use the ALAMO AOPA code. Gives great rates, Under 25, and has a 30 off code. Have not been asked to show ID,but if you want you can sign up for a fee trial and they send u an ID card!

What's the code?

434861. $30 off coupon - AD2365FDN. Free weekend day - AF5542FDG.

If your nervous to use it,sign up for a free AOPA trial and they will send u a membership card with your name printed on it. https://flighttraining.aopa.org/apps/student/studentregister1.cfm?offercode=S13XXWAMP

Have found this code to be more affective then USAA and Chabad codes with the other rental companies.. Good luck!

It's telling Maximum rental length conflict with coupon. Do you put anything in Product code?
TIA

I have used the free weekend day many times but not the 30 off..

similarly, can i take advantage of national exec status with them?

I booked a car through Priceline and received Alamo rental. I estimated my eta to be at 8pm but plane landed early. I ended up checking in to get my car twenty minutes early. Alamo charged me an insane hourly rate since these twenty minutes were not paid for yet by Priceline. Is this how it works? Any way to fight it?

Is alamo considered a normal trustworthy company?
Booked Alamo through Costco for PBI Airport. Just making sure theyre a normal comapny without hidden fees ?

Never booked with them but National, Enterprise and Alamo are owned by the same parent company.

Bump.

If I'm EE with national, what advantage does that give, and do I need to to book a specific car class to use it?

What cars does alamo have in MIA for luxury Suv?
Last week they only had infinity qx 80, so they have others?

Any recent experience with Alamo? I've been searching for a while for a van at FLL and someone suggested Alamo and to my surprise they were the cheapest by far

mikel1 · « **Reply #39 on:** January 21, 2024, 08:03:22 AM »

any good alamo codes I can use for a car rental for premium SUV- 8 seater?

I am over 25 (so don't need anything for under age- just for better rates).

Thanks!
