I'm not sure why, but I've never liked Orbitz. Probably all of the popups back in the pre-popup blocker days. I'm having a heck of a time finding a car to rent so I can get back to Michigan for the holidays and decided to try Orbitz. Whew, they have cars! Or so I thought.
The matrix below was mostly full when I first saw it. I clicked a rate and a few moments later it replied with “Oops, we really don't have that car, sorry.“. Click. Wait. No car. Click. Wait. No car. Sixteen more click and waits, sixteen “no car“s. Finally, I find a car...and it's in Schiller Park. I searched Chicago. Schiller Park is fifteen miles away, which is fine if you have a car, and I obviously do not. Looks like I'm walking.
