Alamo’s Florida ‘Drive-Out’ Program Offers One-Way Discounts, Unlimited Mileage, Free GPS Unit
ST. LOUIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Alamo Rent A Car announced today its Florida “Drive-Out” program, which enables customers to take advantage of low one-way rates with no drop charges and unlimited mileage, plus a Global Positioning System (GPS)-based navigation device at no additional charge.
Under the program, Alamo customers traveling from select cities in Florida can rent cars for as little as $10 per day for economy through mid-size cars, $12 per day for full-size cars, or $15 per day for minivans and standard SUVs – as long as the vehicles are dropped off at participating locations in Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Louisiana, Mississippi, or Alabama.
In addition, special one-way rates as low as $20 per day are available for vehicles returned to participating locations in many other states, including: Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Iowa, Illinois, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas, and Virginia.
“At this time of year many of our customers are driving from Florida back to their homes in the North,” said Rob Hibbard, Vice President for Alamo Rent A Car. "So our ‘Drive-Out’ program is a definite win-win, as it provides a creative solution for getting our customers inexpensively to their destinations and at the same time reallocates our fleet after the busy winter season."
Effective between April 1 and July 18, the “Drive-Out” program requires a 24-hour advance reservation and allows a maximum 21-day rental. To reserve this offer, Alamo Rent A Car customers can book online at www.alamo.com or call 800-GO-ALAMO. Also, customers who select a GPS unit to use during their rental must do so at the time of reservation and must use the “FLDAGPS” code.
