Amsterdam Schiphol
Platinum
Booked: BMW 530e / Jaguar XF or equivalent (LDAR)
Allocated: Jaguar XF 2.0d Sportbrake (LWAR)
Received: BMW 840i Grand Coupe (XSAR)
Paid upgrade
Was looking for a nice "weekend-away" car for the both of us. But disappointed with the dull and grey Jag diesel station. Employee claimed this was already an upgrade! Does the platinum upgrade entitle you to a higher class upgrade or just any (small, slightly more expensive) upgrade? Employee said it was the only available car.
Got the option to get a Audi A5 cabrio or BMW 4-Series cabrio (FTAR), but when looking in the garage I saw the BMW 8 Grand Coupe. Asked what it would cost, and quoted me a low amount and the employee even said "I haven't seen at this low ever". Would make sense if I would rent it for 1 day only (knowing the price online)
Paid 1/4 of the price of what it normally would cost for a weekend

. Even kept the unlimited KM's on the contract.
