Hotwire Hotel: San Antonio Car Rental

[jeff101d]

I'm trying to get a car rental in San Antonio for 6/30-7/5

However, HOTWIRE says nothing available in Mid-Size, Full Size,

Compact, Mid Sized SUV, Economy, etc...

Only available right now are MiniVan, Luxury and Convertible for $40+ per day.

Never had this problem before.

Wondering what going on here? Am I looking to early??

Will they become available as the date get closer and they know what they

will have left? Or is something else happening here?

Getting the hotels was no problem at all. TIA

There's only a small convention in town and there are many cars available on Travelocity, PRICELINE, etc...

but hoping for HOTWIRE as we have a credit on our balance with them. j

Maybe there was a previous communication issue (between HOTWIRE and its car rental partners??) as i just did a search for your dates and have been presented with many, reasonably priced, offers at all car classes.

I searched HOTWIRE for pick-up and drop-off at noon... are you searching some very early or late pick-up/drop-off time which is perhaps limiting the offers if most car rental desks are closed at that time?

If you do a current HOTWIRE search are you still seeing limited availability?

Yes, I'm presented with many choices. The problem is that when I clikck on almost any one of them it only then says:

"We couldn't find any Economy, Compact, Mid-size, Standard, Full-size or Mid-size SUV car rates.". jeff

I'm experiencing the same... i would guess it's a communication breakdown and since you have some time, give it 1-3 days and try again.

Let us know what happens at that time.

I would recommend booking a cancellable back-up just incase there is an explanation for tight demand, although i suspect it's more of a technology issue given that results are showing but just can't be booked.
