VicStar Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Hi there, I'm looking to rent a car with the following details Pick Up: Nashville Intl Airport, TN USA (BNA) on Thu, Oct. 02, 2014 - 12:00 PMDrop off: Drop-Off:Mcghee Tyson Airport, TN USA (TYS) on Thu, Oct. 09, 2014 - 8:00 AM When I entered the above details into Priceline, I received the following message "Name Your Own Price is not available for the itinerary you requested. The best available rates are shown below." Can you please let me know if I have started my bidding to early or if Priceline does not allow cars to be picked up and dropped off at the locations above? If Priceline is unavailable, can you please suggest options? Many thanks,Vic Link to comment
yellowdog Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 It's not that you're try to bidding early. It's because PRICELINE doesn't allow you to use a different location for your return. You can look at HOTWIRE and see if you can book a one-way rental in this area. If no go just post back and we'll take a look at this. Yellowdog. Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your purchases and searches. Link to comment
VicStar Posted August 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Hi yellowdog, Thanks for getting back to me. I tried HOT.WIRE and you can select different locations. The only issue is, I'm unsure if one way drop off charges or any other fees apply so I have emailed HOT.WIRE and Alamo to clarify this. My other potential issue that we are Australian and only have Australian driver's licences, credit cards, etc. Thanks again, Vickie Link to comment
yellowdog Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 My other potential issue that we are Australian and only have Australian driver's licences, credit cards, etc.That should not be a problem. Just make sure that you have the correct insurance. The rental company wont release the car if you don't have this. Check with Alamo what you need. Keep us updated. Yellowdog.

VicStar Posted August 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 Hi yellowdog, Thanks for your assistance. We ended up going directly with Alamo. Cheers,Vic Link to comment
