Hi all,
Are there any rental car agencies that have cars on-site at the Orlando airport, or do all require that you take a shuttle bus offsite? I have used Alamo twice and would prefer to use an on-site agency next time since I'll have a 22-month-old with me.

Thanks in advance.

Dollar, Avis, National, Budget and L&M all are located on the airport grounds and do not require you to take a tram. You simply go to the counter in the terminal and basically walk across a street to pick up your car.

1. Best prices - travelocity - and you can include "on-terminal" in your selection criteria, especially 9 months in advance, or more.

2. Imagine my surprise the first time I used Hertz after it relocated offsite. An additional 8% "livery" fee (on top of the whole bill) for the privilege of having to get transporation to pick up my car rental. Never again!!

We used Dollar in terminal. It was awesome. After you get your bags you go town to the terminal, check in then go right out the door to your car. For maybe 25.00 more, than an off-site location it was so worth it especially when traveling with kids!!!

I got a good deal with a code from mousesavers.

Actually I find Dollar to be right in the ballpark with off-site biggies like Alamo and less than Hertz. If you join the FastLane program you'll get speedy counter service. I usually have the car before the rest of our party has the luggage.

Dollar has some good promo rate codes out you can try at their web site: MCC, FVG and FISH. Also check mousesavers.com for other discounts on car rentals, in the transportation section of WDW. Dollar is right accross from the airport baggage pickup, very convenient.
