Is there any concern that points bookings receive a lower priority when there is a car shortage? I’d hate to start my first non-road trip vacation in 18 months waiting forever at HNL for a car. Getting to our destination at the north shore pretty much requires a car.
Also, just logged in for the first time in a year an found that I had apparently been downgraded to Gold. And the site complained that one of my credit cards had expired. After I fixed that, I miraculously am now PC again. Go figure.
I just used points for a 1 week and a one day rental back to back last week at HNL.They were sold out last week but I still got upgraded as a PC member. Actually they even honor my corporate discount at HNL (if not using points) and the rate was not bad at all. I also posted my experience in the upgrade thread.
