Certain airlines like Southwest dont serve SFO and only OAK and SJC. I did a dummy reservation via avis to see how much fee's/cost would be if i did a one way rental from SFO to SJC/Oak and the prices remained the same. Is the price only locked if i book it ahead of time? I was thinking of keeping my round trip rental reservation just incase i get a flight out of SFO... but in the case i do have to go to another bay-area airport, i would just return the rental at the specific airport i choose to go too. Will i be slapped with a fee then or will it be like the test reservation i did earlier and be the same price no matter which airport i choose to bring it too?
Yes, price will be locked in unless you change the reservation. If you change it then all bets are off.
My advise would be to book/keep a SFO-SFO reservation. If you depart out of another airport then call Avis as soon as you know your plans to see what the price would be to change. If it's insanely expensive, then just drop off at SFO, then take Caltrain to SJC or BART to OAK.
BTW, Southwest has served SFO for about the last 10 years
