Swede Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 Hi,I recently got really good help for finding a hotel in downtown boston. Now I'm looking to rent a car between July 24th (noon) and August 3rd (noon). Pickup & drop-off at Logan.Do you have any advice on how to get a good deal for a decent car? I'm looking for a normal size car, i.e. not to small and not a Lincoln town car.Thanks in advance!! :)
thereuare Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 What is the best rate using our Car Rental Checker?What is the rate thru Hotwire? Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
szymon Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 Through this link, Budget has a full-size for $298 which currently beats Hotwire's price. You might want to reserve that as a backup while you research your other options. Reservations made through budget.com can be cancelled at no-charge if you decide not to use them.Szymon
atlantatravel Posted June 30, 2006 Report Posted June 30, 2006 used the link; compact for 652.00 7/21 thru8/6(16 day) ; tried pline 5 times over 15 days; to date compact not accepted for 24; started at 17. any luck besides the fallback budget link?
szymon Posted July 6, 2006 Report Posted July 6, 2006 atlantatravel,Thrifty in BOS has an intermediate for $606 for your dates. Just keep bidding and see if you can beat that or not.Szymon
atlantatravel Posted July 8, 2006 Report Posted July 8, 2006 Thanks. I booked thrifty. Although I am bidding well after 3 days PL tells me I have given the exact bid within three days and must change other options. In fact, I have not gone further than 24 for a compact; so it is the exact bid however after the 3 day term. Any thoughts?
thereuare Posted July 8, 2006 Report Posted July 8, 2006 Has it been more than 72 hours? (not just 3 calendar days)Are you counting from when you first started bidding or your last rejected bid?

szymon Posted July 17, 2006 Report Posted July 17, 2006 At alamo.com, you can use contract ID 698805 (Vacation Outlet) and coupon code D42C ($15 off - avail on Alamo web site) and get a compact for your dates for $422.99Szymon
