If  you are referring to using the code on National or Avis it comes out to more.  Enterprise is slightly less but still no great bargain.  Thanks.

I'm an Avis and Hertz member (with plat or Barclay arrival I think) if that helps. The times (being under 24 hrs of use) should not matter because they charge per diem. Is this right? TIA
