Best Car Rental Agency?

[westernmom]

We will be flying into Orlando and then staying at the Radisson at Port Canaveral. My idea is to just rent a car at the airport and then return it in Port Canaveral. Which rental agency is the cheapest, easiest, etc to do this with? And then post cruise we are staying in Orlando for a few days (our son-in-law has never been there) and I would like to rent a car at the Port and then return it to Airport.

I prefer rental cars to shuttles, taxi's, etc. and find it less expensive to do this.

I have always done business with Avis.... I really don't think you can go wrong with any of the name brands .. they are all so similar.

If you are using certain credit cards i do know that that credit card company itself will provide the necessary insurance so that in it self is a savings.. off of the rental price....

Westernmom,

Try clicking the "Car Rental" link in the blue menu at the top of any page. You can get some great deals here.

We used enterprise from Orlando airport to Cape Canaveral and then from the port to the airport. It was quite reasonable and we had no problems at all.

I think I will call Enterprise tomorrow. It seems like they want to charge more on the internet for different drop offs than when you just call direct.

Be sure and post what you find out. We will be doing the same thing in March.

I used Thrifty last April from the airport in Orlando to the Coco Beach office. They shuttle to the pier in Pt Canaveral. On our return, their shuttle was in the parking lot and took us the Coco Beach office. We were in and out in a few minutes.

John,

Is Coca Beach the same as their office in Cape Canaveral?? Just booked on line with them and that's the drop off point I selected. Actually we will be renting two cars from them. A sedan when we arrive in Orlando the week before the cruise. Then, we will turn that in at MCO and get a Van on Friday evening. Need the van because my wife's sister and her husband are joining us at our condo mid-week and we will all be heading to Port Canaveral on Saturday and would never be able to get all of us and our luggage in a sedan.

Let me know about Cape Canaveral?
