Okay, I was going to pass this up since I had no idea what is going on, but my curiosity got the better of me...what's up with the car rental agencies that AAA had to step in ??? I have been renting jeeps for years now and have never had a problem. I did have a jeep once that just refused to turn on, but the rental agency provided a new one with no questions, so again I ask...what's up ???

Basically awhile ago the rental agencies "lost their leases" and were forced to bid on space at the airport with a limited number of agencies to be chosen. Thus many agencies moved "off site".

If I had to guess the suit was between the agencies and the AAA and the court ruled in favor of the airport.
