Back Story:
Coming up in early January, we are spending a week @ ASSports using ME to get around. Our original plan was to end the vacation with a Disney cruise. But .... with the Dream coming and the Wonder going... turns out the Magic was just too pricy for us this time around.
Anyway, I booked us on a cruise leaving from the Port of Tampa. Now, its super easy to rent a car and drop it off when going to Port Canaveral. Turns out not so easy going to Port of Tampa. Best I can figure out is one must return a rental car to the Tampa airport then either catch a shuttle form the car rental company to the port or take a $25 cab ride. Then there is the matter of the $125 one way drop charge added to the rental car cost. uggh!
I discovered it is much less expensive to pick up a rental car in the Downtown Disney area vs going back to MCO to pick it up. Any special codes to eliminate that pesky drop charge? Have you experience with another way to get to the port I haven't thought of.....? I'm trying to think ourside the box to lower costs.
Thanks guys, appreciate the help!
