Default LAX rental car

Do any of the rental car companies pick up at the FedEx ramp? Who gives the best airline discount? Thanks for any feedback.

Fox Rent-a-car has been pretty inexpensive for aircrew.
Don't know about pickup option at the FEDEX ramp though.
Give em a call.

flaa8vr,

I looked at Fox renta-a-car's website and their location is very near the FedEx ramp so I thought they would be a good choice. However, when I went to their website, I did not see an airline discount.

I then called Fox rent-a-car and they said they do not offer discounts to pilots. Do you know what code to input to get the discount?

Hmmm.....that's interesting. They used to offer crew discounts.
Could be a recent policy change. I haven't rented there in about 9 mos.
Call back and talk to a manager. You might have talked to a "new hire"!

BTW, even if they don't have a crew discount, their prices are pretty damn good!

Is Fox Rent a Car the same slow moving disaster for crews as it is for the general public?

I remember being stuck in their line forever in SFO so I called my cancellation in and walked over to Hertz. Every time I go to SFO Fox is a backed up disaster.

You can always walk down to Landmark FBO if you need a car for a few hours.

Without being their customer at the time of the request? Doubt they want to deal with you at that point.
