I registered for Gold Plus Membership and I'm looking to rent a minivan for my family vacation in Miami/Orlando.
Using the Herz app for the dates I need I see a special offer for a Prestige Collection SUV, the price is much much cheaper than the price for the Minivan.
This is a non brainer for almost anyone but in my case, we're 6 people so I really need a minivan.
If I make the reservation for the Prestige SUV:
A) can i go to the Gold Plus lot and grab another vehicle? And if so, what are the chances to pick a Minivan??
B) if I can't get the minivan from the Lot, can I get a "downgrade" in the counter? Will Hertz consider this as a downgrade? Or will I have to pay the usd35 per day rate??

Thanks for your help!!

Ps: I know Miami doesn't have the Ultimate Choice program yet, but I'm flying next year.
Prices are going to change a hundred times between now and next year. Just book both a Minivan and the Prestige SUV and then track the rate. I can almost guarantee you that the Minivan will come out cheaper in the end.
