Same experience as avmba this morning. Grabbed a brand new kia forte - no ride report on this guy just a car I had not yet rented. Amongst the assortment were new kias, g6s, malibus, sebrings, and chargers. Better cars on the es side including a buick lucerne and a couple cadillac boats. Btw LAS has been severely overstocked with minivans. Ask the lot attendant on most economy or more $ alamo or national res and score the free upgrade.

directly behind the counter at the booth in the returns area is a list of all alamo/national car models by class. I was not able to get a good look at it, but perhaps another FTer can take some notes for us.

Just rented at LAS through Emerald Aisle.
I arrived there around noon on Thursday, December 31 and the lot was full. There was more choice than I expected. There was a KIA SUV, a Nissan Cube, some Hyundai Accents, Dodge Avengers, Dodge Chargers, Chevy Malibus, Chevy HHRs, Toyota Corollas, one Chrysler 300 Touring in leather that I picked up. There was probably some more models but I don't remember all of them.
I only looked quickly at the ES and saw some 300s, Grand Marquis and some Mustang Convertibles.
When I came back on Saturday the 9th around 7 pm, the lot was almost empty and there was like 4-5 Grand Caravans in the EA and one Chevrolet Malibu.

Wow - what a range - all the way from Hyundai Accents to Chrysler 300.

Great, I am going with me plus 4 in April. Should I specifically go for the mini-van award or try my luck with a SUV on the Exec?
How is LAS setup in relation to exiting from baggage claim? Bus, or easy walk?

There is a shuttle to the rental car facility - all major rental companies are housed in the same facility at the edge of the airport. Just exit baggage claim and hop on a bus for a short ride.

I appreciate that, I guess I could had just looked online and found that information along with the rentel facility map LOL
Question.. If I rent a luxary on award and say there are not any SUV type luxary vehicles in the luxary row, can I just pick up a minivan or SUV from another row and drive away with it?
I am always a 100% asile person, so this Emerald Reserve is new to me since I will have a car full of peeps and their luggage.
Thanks!

Last night my husband picked up our car at LAS, said there were some conv. Mustangs, a Challenger, lots of Grand Marquis, didn't mention mini vans or SUV's. And not one Toyota in the house that he could see. We figured selection would be very poor, as he was picking up the Saturday evening of Superbowl/UFC weekend. But there seemed to be a decent numbers of cars.
The lot attendant offered him a free upgrade from the Aisle to a "Premium" Taurus. We rented a 2009 Taurus last year at MCO and enjoyed it so he didn't hesitate. Grabbed a 2010 with 2900 miles on it. Not as zippy as the Limited we had at MCO, but still likes it very much considering what we paid for ten days.
