I usually use Alamo, but last time the rate from Budget was much better, so I used them. I would encourage you to join their Fastbreak program. That way you can go straight to the garage at MCO instead of the counter in the terminal. No problems with the car...I think I rented a compact and had a Ford Focus, which was fine for my purposes.
Thank you for responding! We are renting from our hometown and driving down. We will not be at the airport. Are there any benefits to joining any of their other member programs if I am not renting from the airport? thank you!
