Hertz - Availability changes drastically depending on CDP

Trying to rent a car for a week out of SFO for a business trip. My default CDP is AAA and with that only SUV and Minivan are available. With US Airways CDP only Minivan is available.

But if I use United Airlines CDP (link from my ticket purchase) then I can choose from Intermediate, Full Size, Prius, SUV, Navigator, Corvette, etc, etc... This is with the same dates, same airport, same pickup and drop off times.

:confused:

Certain CDP's are worth more to Hertz than others. This is just like how PC's are guaranteed A-F regardless of the location's sell out status. They are not about ready to tell someone who rents 40+ a year to go somewhere else. However, excellent customer service to AAA members is very important so I'm surprised that it didn't produce more results for you.

Ok, I think I figured out the problem. My profile specified Mid-Size for my class preference. If I change the dropdown to Compact/Mid-Size all the class choices show up as available.

Notice it is not possible to specify subcompact as your class preference. :td: But the rate for subcompact is shown anyway. ^ Either way, as usual, the rate difference is typically relatively small.
