Budget rental "Fastbreak"-worth it?

[chefmb]

The only time we rent a car is when we go to Disney---about once every three years. Last time, I used Dollar Express---worked great-walked right up to counter. This time, the better deal was with Budget. I already did the "RapidRez" number so they have my info, but I still have to wait in line to sign in. They offer "Fastbreak", where I sign a form, send it in with all my preferences ahead of time, and then can walk right out to the garage to pick up a car. Has anyone used this service? I want to know if it's worth it (it's free, but does it save that much time?) Any opinions appreciated!

I've been with Budget for awhile and have my "fastbreak" card somewhere but I only rent about 1x a year. In my limited experience, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I think some of the times when it didn't work - it was because I didn't quite know what to do or where to go. For a busy airport location, I'd give it a shot.

Thanks for the input. I appreciate it.

Worth it YES, especially when the cost is nothing, with "it" at the Orlando airport you head right out to the garage booth, give them your reservation, get your car and leave. My DS didn't have it last year I had my car in less than 5 minutes he stood in a line up for 1 1/2 hours.

I am so glad I found this out. Budget never told me about it when I made my reservation. I just called and they fixed me up. NOw I won't have to wait as long to get out of the airport.
