I read through the last 5 pages of this thread, and still don't think anyone has come back to report a successful rental using U071101 in 2009? This code is giving me the best rate by far (about 50% off), but of course, want to see any first-hand experience for 2009.
Will I get in trouble if I'm not actually attending a conference?
I used U071101 last week at LAX last week and it worked great. I got a Grand Marquis (rollin' old man-style, yeah!) with only 4K miles for about half off. Actually, it was a pretty nice ride for the trip up to SBA and back on the 101 and got much better gas mileage than I was expecting. Plus, people get out of your way because they think you're an unmarked CHP car.
