And my Costco compact SUV rental from Alamo just went down to $503 for the week of 2/12-2/19. I'm pretty close to dropping the reservation from CCC (National) since that's for a standard car.
My rate dropped a whole $1 for 2/12-2/19. Technically, Budget has a better rate, but I just don't want to deal with those lines midday on a Saturday. I need to check Hertz and see if I can get a AAA discount.

The reports have been that there are long lines no matter FB status. I have never rented from Budget before; so I'm not in their loyalty program.Do you find long lines even being a FastBreak Member?
I see. Thank you. I hope that is not the case in February and my car is waiting like normal. I like Alamo because I get to pick the car out myself but AVIS and Budget are nice when your car is waiting and you can just jump in and go. Sometimes the bad part of Alamo is trying to choose but I loved the days when you would have a midsize car and find vans and other big cars in that sectionThe reports have been that there are long lines no matter FB status.

Dang that is a bummerAlamo only had 3 compacts to choose from in February and they were all Versa's. I was like well that's no fun.
My rate today is $368 for a minivan 2/5 thru 2/12. Alamo using the Costco code. I can get a lower rate with Budget but I want to skip the line, get the free second driver, and pick out my own car.
And now I've got an intermediate SUV for $454 through Avis for the week. The standard SUV didn't change in price, so I switched. The President's Day weekend must be the reason the prices aren't going down much at all.I was able to upgrade to a standard SUV while dropping in price to $465 for Avis and this is through Costco. My previous reservation was through Alamo (also Costco) and was a compact SUV for $502 for the week of 2/12-2/19.
