The airport run is the issue, as I'm sure you have realised. In the past we've had suitcases on the floor, behind the driver and passenger, with feet resting on top. Soft luggage helps as well. I've had a look at photo's but can't find any showing the boot area with all seats up.
I'm not sure about Sanford, but certainly MCO the Alamo staff are brilliant in helping find what you want.
I know nothing is guaranteed but every car from Alamo over the last 6 years has had a working SatNav as these cars tend to be well spec'd.
Firstly 'Welcome, Liam' to the DIBB madhouse.

This seems to show how limited the boot is with all seats in use. As Segdude says, lots of space for 5 people. I can't see there being enough space for 7 though.

Late to the party, like Mick says, a lot of us have not been keeping up with this sub forum.

With 7 people the issue, as has been pointed out, is the airport run. We are going as 6 adults, and I have gone for a Premier SUV with DFCH, which is basically the same as you have but longer, with the extra space being boot space.

The different models are Chevrolet Tahoe/Chevrolet Suburban, GMC Yukon/GMC Yukon XL and Ford Expedition/Ford Expedition Max.

If you have a google on those models you should be able to see the difference.

I had a Premier 7 Seater SUV booked for our cancelled June holiday through DFCH at £583, but for our Sept trip it is currently £782 I’m hoping it will come down before then (assuming we get to go of course).
