Gonna wait to see if the exchange rate gets better though so hopefully prices will drop...
No problem, I didn't even realise VA did car hire and hotel only. We booked 2 weeks Orlando via VH when we could have used VA for the same price and double black card miles and bonus booking miles. Doh!

What dates are you looking at? We are booking 3 weeks MCO, 7 seater in August 17. VA have it £800 with 1 additional driver, and Alamo Brits has it at £1090 pre-paid.

Thanks for this... but not with Alamo. I like Alamo because I can go straight to garage and I won't have to queue after a long flight and/or get the hard sale. Can you do that with Dollar or Thrifty ?

I was able to do mine for my recent trip 2 months before I went so you shouldn't have any issue doing it now
