I was just curious to know if by chance you guys are planning to make it easy to fill in the location like kayak.

It would be really easy if starts throwing options when you type in location.

Off airport location option is not a neat one as of now.

Just a feedback.

Keep up the good work.^

Coupons listed in the coupon database that require any specific conditions to qualify will display such on the site. For example:

AARP members save up to 25%
Proof of membership may be required at the rental counter
Free Upgrade for BJ's members (printable coupon)
Valid on an intermediate through premium car. Click here to print coupon.
At this time, the coupons and discounts automatically applied by the booking engine are not coupons that require any sort of proof of membership or physical coupons. As the engine matures, we may be able to start applying specialized discounts like this and proactively notify you of any special requirements to get the discount, but you don't have to worry about that at the present time.

Very straightforward, easy and intuitive process.

And I booked through a company I've never used before......Advantage....and saved $60 or so compared to the companies I usually use.
Advantage is owned by Hertz (although operated independently), so they're not a completely unknown commodity.

Thanks for the feedback!
