Virgin Flydrive not getting the car?

**gjdjud** · 25 Mar 21, 07:27 PM

I’m quite eager to secure flights for next year as I’m a little worried about prices rising and availability. I was thinking of Virgin Flydrive to Miami but the price upgrading to an suv with proper insurance is crazy. If I look at prices for the smallest car with basic insurance and using the flying club discount the price isn’t too bad allowing me to ditch the car and getting one elsewhere.

I know people have not collected the car before. Any issues with doing this?

We’ve booked like this and are using Discounted Florida Car Hire as they were much better priced!

That’s what I’m thinking of doing. Just waiting for my car quote.

Who do you use out of interest? We’ve always used them when booking separate

In the past I’ve used Alamo Brits but their prices are really high recently so I’ve contacted DFCH.

I considered this, but when I looked at DFCH the prices for the car we would want was £1702, which added to the price of the Miami fly drive with a tiny car and basic insurance, was actually more expensive than the deal we have booked already, by about £400!

We’ve done this in the past. No issues at all.
