    Has anyone booked car hire through Atlas Choice before or used Fox Rental Cars? What are they like and are you likely to get the car you want or do you get their similar choice? Thanks in advance

    Never booked with either.

    why those 2?

    no rental company will gtee the actual type of car it will be a coice of whatever they have in that catergory.

    have you tried the usual suspects
    Netflights
    Rentalcars

    and my new fav
    Alamobrits and then join alamoinsiders, check in online, and walk straighto your car with no queueing whatsover at LAS

    Fox aren't at the consolidated facility as far as I know...so the shuttles from the airport don't go there...based on the reviews you have to take two shuttles to get there (I don't know what those shuttles are).

    The reviews are not very good.

    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    lol we're going for July / August :) looking to be in Vegas from 1st - 7th August but maybe a bit before then too :) It was a bit knee-jerk as I'd been looking and had an itinerary reserved as a precaution whilst we thought about it, but then the prices went up so I jumped straight for it :)

    We've both got no TP's at the moment (mine reset in Jan), so this will get us both up to Silver by the time we get to LAS, I'll then switch Mrs.NVH over to her AAdvantage which means that the return trip should get her up to the 80k AAmiles she needs so that should get us a nice £90 winter redemption to Florida - fingers crossed :D (and hoping that AA don't devalue their scheme as people seem to think will happen :o )

    Will be there 3rd- 8th August to as part of our trip staying at The Venetian.

    most of them don't charge a one-way fee between NV and CA.
