You should reserve both and cancel the one you don't need upon arrival, if it's a minivan you absolutely need for the trip.

Arrived Sat night around 1030pm. Both ES and EA were full of cars. Noticed a red 4dr 2015VW GTI in the EA. Took that instead of something in ES. Wow what a great little car. Now I understand why it wins so many awards. Gate agent said they got two, the red one and a white one. Red GTI had 800 miles on it. Satellite Radio active too.

Does anyone know if the Aisles in Boston close late at night? Booked a midnight pickup for an upcoming rental and I notice it's showing "Level of Service: Counter."
Mainly curious whether a midnight pickup will affect my ability to choose a car. If it's a question of going out to the aisle and then going in to pick up the keys to the car I want, that's not a problem.

Incidentally -- if anyone is renting a minivan in Boston in the near future, check the tires. They have a mess of high-mileage, out of state Chryslers, and the tires are nearly bald. The traction control will turn on in about a quarter inch of snow.
They have other, newer, better minivans (notably, some Toyota Siennas and Kia Sedonas) as well.

I think I figured this out -- this was for a pickup in the wee hours of a Sunday, and when I got to the gate to check out -- no computer system. They were hand-writing rental contracts on paper. I think it's the weekly system maintenance.
