Car Hire Questions

[Rob Dawson]

Can I just clarify that the Silver Inclusive includes 2 drivers and the Gold Inclusive is 4 drivers (we need 3!)
Also we usually book a Economy/Comfort size car but the next time we go (Easter) there will be 5 adults (although 3 of us are only 'little') what size car would you recommend Intermediate or Full?

Thanks

Yes, the Silver Inclusive includes 2 drivers and the Gold 4 driver (and a tank of fuel).

Thank you Roger

Size of car depends on how "cozy" you want to be. You will all fit in an intermediate but would be more comfy in a full size. With 5 adults we would always have a 7 seater minivan.

Hi Lyn

Thank you, I've now booked a full size car so hopefully will fit us all in although I'm not so much concerned with the size for us to sit comfortably-it's the cases -we usually struggle with 4 , this time we will have 5!!

You may have to have some on laps for the trip to and from the airport. Would not expect that you could get 5 cases in the boot (trunk) even in a full size car.

Last year we had 6 of us and six cases. We hired a 7 seat suv and it was still a struggle when the cases were in. I think the 7 seat vans would offer you more space and flexibility and I don't think there is much difference in price between the van and a full size car. I know they call them vans but they are people carrier's and very comfy

We prefer a 7 seater especially a stow & go van as you can put down the seats you don't need to get luggage to and from airport. If you book with Alamo then you can choose your car from a row of vehicles in your chosen class.

Also don't forget if they don't have a car for you then you can pick another from a higher class.

Thanks All for the info-might have to rethink.
