2 in front, 2 in captains chairs and 1 in rear row with other seats in rear dropped. you may need to pop hand luggage between captains chairs or at feet but yeah should be ok.

Sweet so the are 2/2/3 front to back? Or can layout change between them?

OP, when I asked how you were getting to the airport here, it was to advise that whatever you can squeeze your stuff into here, just make sure you booked the same size or larger in the US

We have had Dodge Caravans for our family of six (kinds all teens/early 20's) and found it had plenty of space. They really are big compared with our UK Ford Galaxy MPV - lots more boot space behind row 3 to swallow up suitcases.

I think the Chrysler Pacifica is the pick of the MPV's on offer, but we have always ended up with a well specced Dodge Caravan and been quite happy with that.

It is worth looking at the spec on offer as well. Our family of 16 hired 3 Dodge Grand Caravans last year and each one was different. I only noticed as we were about to drive away that mine didn’t even have a reversing camera but at that stage I was too tired to unload the luggage and pick another.

Every one ive had has been. And ive had 5 maybe 6?

If its a row and you get to choose then walk the isle first kets are usually in the vehicles, for me there are some no nos.

I dont want material seats (its usually a lower spec)
I dont want the colour black (heat magnet)


I do want low milage, use the keys to turn the ignotion on and get the lowest, i got one under 5,000 last time and the sat nav was still working.
I do if possible want interior screens! We got one that had screens for a dvd player that was built in, so row 3 and 2 could watch. (used it a couple of times with the kids in the back)

Ahh. We are probably in 2 cars for the airport trek but only want one whilst we're there (with an ad hoc mid-holiday hire if required).
