PHL Philadelphia Minivan Budget

Hi,

I intend to rent a minivan from May 23 through 26 from Philadelphia Airport.

I tried booking direct with most of the major rental companies but the rates are quite high (around 300+ - taxes/fees included, even with coupons)

I want to try bidding....what would be the best strategy. HOTWIRE is giving me $273 approximately. What can i expect from PRICELINE?

thanks - Noela

You can only make the same car rental bid every 72 hours.

I would start by bidding $35 and increasing $4 every 72 hours... this will get you up to $50+ over the next 10 days or so.

Szymon,

thanks for the suggestion -- I don't have AAA. I tried the Alamo site, booking from May 23 (12 noon) to May 26 (6pm), and got a base price of $284.17 (with the $15 discount). Adding a $75.14 taxes and fees, shoots the price up to $359.41.

Did you do something different to get eht $265.03

rgds, Noela
