    I did this with my prepaid UCT reservation, and I did not lose the discounted rate.

    UCT car rental and skip the counter

    I recommend calling back and talking to another agent. I have found that some agents are willing to do it and some are not. I have also found that it helps to try to add the reservation to your Avis Preferred account prior to calling. Then, you can tell the agent that you are calling to find out...

    UCT car rental and skip the counter

    Yes, it worked for me. While I waited for our checked bags, my husband was able to walk right up to the booth in the garage and get the paperwork for the car with no wait. He was back to me at baggage claim before I even had our luggage. What I learned is it all depends on who you talk to at...

    UCT car rental and skip the counter

    Update! My trip is next week. I did what you did back on 1/23 and put the reservation number from UCT into the Avis site and did digital check in. I also got the confirmation that I was checked in, but the reservation still did not show in my Avis account when I went back in. Today I called the...

    UCT car rental and skip the counter

    Good luck! I'm going to go ahead and book and try this. I will be there in a month, so I can let you know! I will say, when we were there last month we waited an hour at Budget and there was no line at Avis. So that gives me hope that it won't be a long wait anyway. And the good news is you can...

    UCT car rental and skip the counter

    Did you ever try this/find out the answer? I am hoping to book through UCT and skip the counter and trying to decide whether to book.

    Southern California (& Disneyland): Backstage Magic Meets Thread

    I am interested in the 5 night Disneyland and Southern California ABD trip with my husband and daughter, who will be 11. I am a WDW fanatic, but this will be my first trip to Disneyland. Not knowing when I might get to go back, I am going to want to do "everything" there is to do in both parks...

    Grilled cheese at Sunshine Seasons?

    You guys! You don't know how happy I am to see a thread about grilled cheese. Tell me more! My DD is an extreme picky eater, and grilled cheese is one of the only things she will eat at restaurants. But it has to be American cheese. She likes most breads, unless it has seeds in it. So is it...

    Parking at resorts for breakfast

    I am (sadly, long story) staying offsite for an upcoming trip to WDW. We have breakfast reservations at 1900 Park Fare and Chef Mickey's, and we will be driving a rental car. What can I expect with regard to parking when we arrive? Will we be able to park for free once we give our ADR info? Can...

    Viva Italia trip report - 4/30-5/8/09 (adults only trip)

    I think we met back up with the group at 7:00 or 7:30. The guides actually give you a printed list of restaurants that are open early so that you can have time to enjoy a nice dinner before meeting the group. I'm telling you - they think of everything!!!

    Viva Italia trip report - 4/30-5/8/09 (adults only trip)

    I can't remember the exact time we were finished with lunch, but I think it was somewhere between 1:00 and 2:00 p.m. You could probably call AbD and get them to tell you a safe time for your booking. Just let your adventure guides know where you are going, and they'll tell you the quickest way...

    Viva Italia trip report - 4/30-5/8/09 (adults only trip)

    This morning we got to sleep in a bit before breakfast, then we boarded our water taxi bound for the airport. Nineteen hours and four swollen feet later we landed at the Tri-Cities airport, and now I am sitting in bed at the AmericInn in Jonesborough, Tennessee enjoying my vacation from my...

    Viva Italia trip report - 4/30-5/8/09 (adults only trip)

    We got to sleep in today before meeting up with our group for a trip to the Tragicomica mask shop. Our excursion involved our first traghetto ride, a quick and easy way to cross the grand canal, since there are only 4 bridges that cross it. After a brief orientation to Carnevale and the art of...

    Viva Italia trip report - 4/30-5/8/09 (adults only trip)

    After three nights at the villa, it was time to say goodbye to Artimino and head north to Venice. Once we reached the train station in Florence, we also had to say goodbye to Marius and our luxury coach. We boarded the Eurostar, where we had first class seating, and left Tuscany behind. About...

    Viva Italia trip report - 4/30-5/8/09 (adults only trip)

    After riding the Tuscan tower of terror back down from Artimino, we were off to Florence. We met up with our guide, Ellena, outside of the Academia and started on our guided tour. Have I mentioned that there are no lines with Adventures by Disney? We walked right into the museum and within a few...

    Viva Italia trip report - 4/30-5/8/09 (adults only trip)

    The villa at which we are currently residing was once owned by the Medicis, and the view from up here is astounding. My sweet husband let me sleep in today while he explored the estate. We have a corner room with two windows, but let me tell you, they know how to shut out the light when they...
