THE PERSON BEHIND THE NAME
A perspective shaped
by travel.
Captain AL’s published biography describes his work as an active Boeing 777/787 captain and earlier experience as a Boeing 747-400 instructor and examiner. He founded AirlineCrewDiscount to bring scattered crew travel offers together.
Captain AL is a publishing name. His biography explains that he uses it to keep his public writing separate from his airline role. His content represents his own perspective.
What that means for this site.
RentalCarsDiscount is published by Alomax, the operator behind AirlineCrewDiscount. It brings together public car rental booking routes, destination guides and practical preparation advice. You do not need to work for an airline to use it.
Personal observations can help explain a choice. The requirements for a particular rental still come from the booking partner and local supplier. Our guides link to those sources where the details matter.
