Does the EA have minivans and/or small SUV's?

New member here, please don't bite! I was looking at booking a rental at YVR for 2 weeks in August. The price at YVR is rather steep ($900) but i'm getting a price of about half that at the Sandman Hotel branch. Does anyone know if this location is still open, though? I was under the impression it was closed...

Arrived on the 8th right after 9 am.
Both Aisle and Ex were full of the usual stuff. The aisle had 1-minivan and all cars- the usual Altimas and Sonat's (mostly fulls)
Since I was hoping for a mid-SUV on the aisle, I didn't really pay attention to the cars were in Exe except for 2-Edges that I really wanted to take and see if I could make it through the exit on my EA resv.
I thought better of it and decided to use my back-up resv with Alamo and got a Hyundai Tucson with 25K+ Km from Alberta, but still in good shape. Had the panaramic roof and handled pretty well, since it had the 1.6T engine.

Hello,
What is the difference between cruise ship drop off in Vancouver and Pan Pacific? They both look to be pretty much the same location.
Need to pick up at YVR, go to whistler, drive back to vancouver harbour and catch either the helijet/harbour air to YYJ and I'm curious if picking one or the other makes a difference.

Hey everyone,
Just booked through a german broker a Fullsize SUV (Tahoe) from 16th July till 31st July for (i think) good price of €1050 with all insurances.
What car could i expect to get? Tahoe or are those usually not available and what will i get then?

Hi all,
Picking up from YVR for the first time, I've always picked up either PDX/SEA and driven in. Question is, I see the rental policy is worded differently in the fine print about deposit. As an EE in the USA, when I use the app and bypass the counter Natl only holds the amount of the estimated rental charges. The rental policy for YVR however says $200 plus the cost of rental.
Should I expect to see the larger hold, or will it be the same exact as renting in the USA? Is this just a counter/non-emerald checkout policy?
Thank you!

Was just at this location this past Sunday. ES had some good cars, an Infiniti (don't recall the model, was a smallish SUV), 300C, the standard SUVs and full-size cars, and there was a Mercedes E300 which I took.

Anyone notice the aisle selection isn't bookable online for YVR? I know they have executive selection but the website usually shows you can pick aisle when you book the midsize car but it hasn't showed up for me all summer. Is aisle gone for summer due to demand?
UPDATE : Looks like Aisle is back nvm. Will be here Saturday.

YVR location has just started adding a $5/day 'Customer Facility Charge'. This is in addition to the 17.21% 'Premium Location Charge'.
I guess they want to pay for the new booth they just built.
