Does anyone know how big the hertz fleet is in Las Vegas? What would be the best car class to reserve with the Neverlost system to get an upgrade? If I rent a taurus or similar with NL is that what I will get or would I get an upgrade?

Just looking for the best odds not the exact answer.

Thanks.

If you want an upgrade and are reserving Neverlost, reserve and Intermediate (C), chances are you'll get upgraded.

Sorry to semi-hijack the thread
but I have a reservation for tomorrow at LAS. I can modify it online...

If I go to modify it, I have the option of requesting neverlost. The quote comes up the same for my compact. I know they don't have any compacts with NL so would they upgrade me to the lowest NL car they have, make me pay a different price from what's quoted? I'm a 5* with them and this is a pleasure rental for a day :)

NL is available only on Midsize or higher. So requesting NL in a Compact will at least get you a midsize, and probably a fullsize (Taurus).

But when I add NL to a car such as a compact the price doesn't change and I notice in my reservation summary it does not list NL, but it does list it on the right side of the screen. It says Neverlost = yes.

The difference is when I add it to a full size car NL is listed in the reservation summary and a cost is added in.

So the question is, if I add NL to a compact will the price be different when I get to Hertz?

Yay, back from Vegas :)

This is what I did...Before flying over, I went online and modified my reservation of a compact to include Neverlost. This is what my reservation looked like when they sent me a confirmation email:

The quote did not change after I added NL to the reservation.

When I got to the airport, I walked up to my stall and to my surprise I had a very nice convertible Toyota Solara waiting for me. Unfortunately, it did not have NL but that it was a convertible V6 made up for that :)

So, your price shouldn't change and you might get lucky.

psychephylax ,

Thanks for the info, I am not going to LAS until May but just trying to plan ahead. I will let you know how it works out for me!

I have a new problem, I now have 5 people going on the trip so I may be stuck with reserving a Full size, which most likely means I will get a taurus.

I'd hate to experiment with reserving a compact with NL then end up with a small car when I need a bigger one.

If you have any ideas for me, let me know.

Thanks.

If you have status with Hertz you'll probably get upgraded to a Premium if you book Full.

I have Gold status, do you think that is enough?
