Alamo Brits price drop

richard29 · 19 Oct 19, 08:56 AM

Just a heads up, I checked my booking and its gone down by another Ł5.

Not a huge drop but the total drop from booking until now is over Ł56.

Always worth checking.

I have been looking at 2 vehicles for next Easter out of Miami. One is booked with Andy using his 4 driver option great price and service. We also wanted an 8 seater which for most suppliers was over Ł900, virgin for a long time was the best at Ł848 including an extra driver. I then found it Ł799 on Alamo UK and after some professional advice cancelled the Virgin rental (Thanks Mr Tom). At the same time I got it on Alamo brits for Ł719 which is not little bit less it's a lot less than most. Keep looking you sometimes get a nice surprise.
just dropped again, not by much but it's going the right way
714.63 GBP

Alamo Brits is booked in dollars but they convert to GBP.

This means your Brits booking is subject to foreign exchange fluctuations...worth keeping an eye on.

My booking for next year has dropped Ł15 without rebooking owing to a slightly strengthening Ł.

Hi yes I see that, In my case I don't want to be concerned with the exchange rate going the other way that's why I paid in advance in Ł, so I do not see the dollar price on my invoice. If the price in sterling goes down I will rebook at the time, you are probably onto a winner as I think the exchange rate will work in our favour by next year.
