Obviously, cross-border car rentals are very difficult and expensive to arrange in Europe. Finding another transport solution is usually (but not always) best.

I had two successful reservations over memorial day weekend and independence day weekend, one from Oklahoma city Airport and the other from Hartford airport. In fact I even used 3 discover certificates to lower the cost another $120 in both places. In Oklahoma they don't even have emerald aisle but still no questions asked. I did have backup reservations that were for about 1 hour later just in case as the National rates without the code tend to be on the high side.

I did my trip June/July from East Coast to LA.
I did use ORE code(this one worked for me the best), I also signed up for EC member of National.
I used Emerald Aisle so I just showed confirmation of reservation, driving license, CC at the gate at the exit.
Noone asked about ID with this Corporate Code.
Even I had to go back on the same day to the rental place, to fix my contract becouse guy at the gate added some extras to my rental that I didn't wanted( I have noticed that already in the hotel room) and they couldnt fix it over a phone, so I had to go back to airport and go to the counter and work it out with a MOD of National Car Rental.

One-way long March 2016 weekend - EWR-PHL
Sad to see the National crackdown, now seeking an alternative for the subject leisure rental. Any suggestions? We have family in the EWR area, will be staying at an airport hotel in PHL the night before departure, so there is some flexibility in regard to pickup and drop off locations.
Returning the car to EWR (or nearby), taking the train to PHL is also an option (NJ Transit website shows $36 fare for 2 adults, 2 hour 15 min travel time).

One Way Car Rentals JFK-PHL April 28 - May 3
Hi Guys,
New to this forum, coming to the US for work from Australia and need to do a couple of one-way drop offs and finding it extremely expensive. First trip is April 28 - May 3, JFK-PHL. Anyone have suggestions for Australians would be much appreciated. Citi bank member and code seems to work just wondering if any better.

JFK rentals are always expensive, and airport charges/taxes practically double the price.
Try arranging a 1-day 1-way rental to New Jersey or Connecticut (depending on your immediate travel plans), then another one-way from there

Hi,
I have a trip planned from 5/31 - 6/4, DFW - IAH. I wanted to use my enterprise points but unfortunately one-ways are not allowed. I thought about returning the car at DFW on the 6/2 and then pick up another car and drive it to IAH which I would pay for, and then drop it off at IAH and then pick up another car on my points for the remainder of the trip. But it would be a hassle.
Can anybody suggest any ways to cut down the cost (i.e. coupon codes) or use my points w/out having to switch 3 cars? If I rent a car outright for the trip its costing around $550 thru Budget.
Thanks!
