Re: Car Rental loyalties tested

I understand rentals cars may be prevented from using visitors parking lots in order to eliminate cheating on the airport tax (number plates are registered upon entry). . Does this mean we can't park a YOR car anywhere on the airport when we come to meet our son half way through our rental period? ...
