hire car upgrade

Usually if the sized car you reserved is sold out you will get a free upgrade to the next available size up. Otherwise you have to pay for the upgrade. What kind of car did the paperwork say you got? Unless it is a sports car, I know of no car that we have here, where the two back seats totally occupy the boot space.

its a minivan i beleive it will be like the people carriers we have here in britain that have 7 seats but 2 of them collapse giving boot space

Sometimes it pays to be the last one to go into the car hire place, when all the economy ones have gone they have no option but to upgrade you for free.

Don%26#39;t forget you can always call into any branch of the car hire co. if you have problems and they will see what they can do.

If its a 7 seat mini van it should have enough room in for 6 of you.

If ';You ask'; for a up grade they will charge you. They will also re charge the insurance . Which will make it expensive it might not appear that way when you are stood at the counter wanting to get off but when you get home take a look at you credit card statement.

This is what you need to do.

Do not ask for a up grade. explain that you need 7 seats (even though there is only 6 of you) and luggage space.

Take the keys they give you and look at the car , it may be bigger than you think.

If it OK drive off. if its not go back and ask them to change it for a different 7 seater.

If they wont try to manage with it to your hotel.

The next day find another different rental station and take the car in.

Tell them the steering is pulling to the right, the steering wheels wobbling. you didnt not it till you got om the motorway .

They will change it , ask for a different model then.

I often change mine, sometimes just cos I dont like it.

Resist paying for a up grade.

xr great thanks will try that it states ther will be enough room for pasengers but not for luggage it should be ok getting to our destination its just for the trip back with double luggage its the first time i have been to orlando and have booked with tcd i know thats like a swear word on this site lol but hey hav taken money from us for double luggage and then told us vehicle wont be able to carry passengers and all luggage im really annoyed

Enlighten me on this ... since when does a travel company charge you for double luggage, that%26#39;s the airline%26#39;s job. And you shouldn%26#39;t have overweight coming here, it%26#39;s the return when that happens. LOL.

Chuts,

With a Travelcity package you can pay extra and receive a 40kg luggage allowance.....so you can shop.....and shop......

We are in the same situations as you - 4 adults and 2 kids - leaving in 66.5 hrs time (but I%26#39;m not counting - honest!!) from Manchester

I%26#39;ve read in the TCD stuff that arrived with my tickets that you can drop your luggage off at their place in BV (for $10 per person if booked before hand or $15 on the day you leave). This means that we%26#39;re still able to get around on our last day, without the worry of the luggage disappearing.

Maybe something you could look in to ??

edwards sounds good might just do that as i said earlier is it only the return leg that we will have so much weight not bringing alot from england

Cuts; You will see a lot on here about Travel City Direct TCD.

It Is both a Travel agent, And a Airline. The Travel Agency flys its own passengers On its own Planes, and sells direct to the public.

ie No other travel agency could book flights . holidays etc for clients. But more recently buy outs and take overs have muddied the water a bit and the Airline is is now called XL airlines, but some of the planes still have travelcity on them. It might still be on and the same company doing a paper exercise.

With this company all passengers get a bigger pitch seat. and while they do have 3 classes of passengers these Boeing 747 load 545 passengers as against Virgin%26amp; BA 454. the front cabins which would be given over to first class passengers with copious amount of room they have put more seat in them , The up stairs which normally serves as a cocktail lounge bar is seated out with seats with a bit more room than economy . So this is how it makes its money selling cheaper seats. Nearly a 100 more.

It gives 20 kg luggage allowance to economy seats but for 拢15 you can get 40 kg each way if you want. MY travel want 拢45 each way for an extra 5Kg. so this is a good deal.

Tides if you ring TCD you can check in your luggage early on the day of departure for 拢5 pp. At their office in Lake Buena Viista outlets Mall on Highway 535. So you dont have to carry you vasts amount of shopping to the airport.. You will also get your boarding cards there so you dont have to check in either, You can go the parks for the day if you wish.

TCD deal with dollar and I find them good to deal with. But if you should need to swap your car there is Dollar rental station on 192 not far from Old town its Next to ';Race Track Filling station'; .

I would listen to these critics we have on here and make you own mind up. I have always found them fine, and hard to beat on price.

But for some they pay Ford Prices and expect a Rolls Royce to turn up.

The other thing about this charter company you do not have to pay extra for meals, drinks, and head sets. And that can make another 拢100 difference for a family of 4.

They dont have seat back TV%26#39;s but that%26#39;s not an issue for me as i dont watch them anyway.
