If it says Executive Area then yes.


If it just says Midsize - then no.

Thanks!!

I saw a Tesla in DEN last year, but I don't think it was in the aisle.

at least 24hrs advance.
Another trick to get it within 24hrs is to make the reservation for alter and pickup earlier. As long as there are cars on the lot, you won't have an issue.
I just did this for a one way BOS-EWR last minute with a free day when my flight was cancelled this evening. I actually made it for tomorrow but they let me take it tonight.
Really saved the day...

Can I make a reservation and just not show up or will I get charged or penalized somehow?

If it's not prepaid or a points booking, and you haven't put down a credit card, they won't penalize you in any way
Make stuff happen.

Is there an updated code for USAA? Mine isn't working. I'm trying to waive the underage fee. Are there any other codes I can try?

Does national do status match to get Exective elite?  If yes what’s the best way to do it?
Would hertz president circle elite work?

YMMV but I made someone a reservation last week at MIA landing close to 1 and he was successful in picking up a car at national.

I feel like an era has come to a close. Most of my longstanding corporate codes have died (still hanging on to one lesser known one), all of my old coupon codes are dead, having filled their allotment. Have had a very, very hard time finding new coupon codes.

Even having issues using the aisle... for some reason DFW isn't indicating that I can book the executive area. What a sad day.

Yea. That's an industrywide issue. I feel for you...

If it just says Midsize - then no.

haven't used National for a few years...
1. Any ideas why it's not showing me option for emerald aisle/executive aisle for YYZ Airport?
I'm logged in. Have Amex EE
2. What are chances of there being an 8 passenger vehicle in executive aisle at YYZ?

Update. I needed to update payment info.
Now I see it.
Though I'm only seeing Emerald. Not executive.

Does Amex EE not work anymore for Executive elite?

Common sense is not a gift, it is a punishment.
Because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

Not true. Their website and app is junk. As long as you book midsize and up (sometimes higher classes are cheaper), no matter what the website or app says you can access the Emerald or Executive Aisle (depending on status).

Thanks.
I thought I had lifetime EE through status match a few years ago. I must have not done it properly. I now only have Reg executive.
Is there any way to still get free EE status through a CC or status match? (I have Hertz presidential via Cap Venture X)

Never heard of "lifetime" status, don't think it exists with car rentals (besides for Hertz not actually downgrading status a big percentage of the time).

That was answered in the other thread. Yes, status match.

What is the likelihood of finding an 8 passenger at YYZ executive aisle. (I'm executive now but I'll prob have EE status before rental)
