I will double and triple check..Many thanks for the heads up. Paul.

The only thing that changed yesterday on my bill was prepay fuel jumped up by $20. He said it was tax but definately fuel for bigger tank.

Is the Q7 just 5 seats? How are you finding it?

I suspect if you said it was OK but then couldn't get your luggage in then they may have still let you "downgrade" - I will say the same, that Customer Services advised I could downgrade on site if not big enough and see how it goes! 3.5 weeks out for me though, plus we are picking up from MIA so not sure on the difference in availability! Thanks for coming back with the update!

No it has two extra seats in boot. Big enough to put two toddler pushchair and a bag in boot with chairs up. Granted a suburban would have been better for.boot space. But I really like.it. they also had a few new Expeditions in full.size row. Q7 though is good for child seats. Seems to have anchors in all rear seats. Will post some photos later.

Great thanks.

We only have 5 people (3A / 2C) and for day to day we won't need luggage space so would have all the rear seats up (so the 3 in the back are not squished together) but they know they will have to be squished together for the airport / accom journeys anway.

Great thanks! Well if we get something like that I will be happy. Seats down for all the cases and 3 in the back for longer journeys (airport > Accom) and seats up and one of the kids in the back and then 1 child and 1 adult on the regular back row the rest of the time.

I thought premium was suburban not 5 seater X3. Although I would be veryhappy with a BMW.
Hi WelshJim. Hope you had a great journey. Im really keen to understand what you came across at Mco and any issues you faced. I have booked the same suv and paid 200 for 2 weeks hire in June.

Thanks
Paul.

I read somewhere (Tripadvisor?) that Alamo were insisiting on seeing your copy of teh Brits Guide when you turn up now if booking via the Alamo\Brits site. Has anyone picked up recently that can refute this?

Thanks
