thanks, I haven't been to ATL for over a year and since Enterprise merger, I was wondering what I'd find on a Sat PM/Sun AM. I'll report on my return what I saw.

Update: Luxury was full of Grand Marquies, Town Cars, one black DTS, a couple of Buicks and a MKZ. No SUV choices other than a Grand Cherokee and a Ford Explorer. Emerald Reserve had a ton of Impalas, Chargers, and a 300.

I get all my cars on Friday and drop off on Sunday night / Monday morning. Cheaper for me to rent a car and drive home than leave one parked at the airport all week..
That being said.. I picked up a GMC Acadia out of the ES last Friday. Sometimes the selection on Fridays is good for those wanting to pick up on the weekend. I have yet to see a bigger ES aisle anywhere else.

Any updates on ATL??
Actually considering driving down to the airport to pick up rental to drive on family vacation since my car is in the shop. Would be picking up late Friday night (approx. 9pm) from the Exec Aisle.
Thanks!

Grand Marquis a plenty
Been flying into ATL for the last month arriving Sunday at 7p.
EE: Grand Marquis's a plenty, same with Impala's. Some 300's and the occasion Buick models, Jeeps, Ford Explorers, and Kias (when i think executive, I think Kia). Every once in a while a base model camry or 2.
EA: Kia's, Hyundai's, VW Jetta/Beetle, Malibu's, and some more Grand Marquis cause you can never have enough.

EE: Grand Marquis as far as the eyes could see, some 300's, Impala's, and a couple of Jeep Grand Cherokees. I grabbed the only 2011 Grand Cherokee in the place, nice ride.

ES: Full of pickup trucks and other assorted mid size domestic trash.
Bright side: I snagged a very nice Ford Flex Limited with integrated Nav and Microsoft Sync. Pretty sweet technology in the car, drives like a boat, though.

There were many cars on the ES this afternoon:
- a bunch of Mercury Grand Marquis
- several Buick Lucernes
- several Kia Borrego SUVs
- a few Chrysler 300s
- one Chevy Traverse
- a few Impalas
- a sole Lincoln Town car
EA was pretty much Dodge Avenger and (SCAR) Hyundai Sonata, several of which were new enough still to be running temp plates.
