Can I do any better on rental car price??

[pjlla]

Booked an economy car this morning through Costco Travel with Alamo. Paid $64.35 for a long weekend in November (11pm Friday through 11am Monday) picking up/dropping off at MCO.... not too bad. I did a bit of searching, but didn't come up with anything better. Any suggestions, tricks, coupons, codes??...............P

Check mousesavers.com. They have a lot of different coupon codes for rental cars. Also, renting off airport saves you money, but unless you have another way to get to your resort initially(ME), you are often stuck. We were able to take ME, and then pick up the car when we needed it to move offsite - we picked up at one of the DTD hotels, and people also use the on on property near MK. Sorry - not even sure if you are visiting Disney!

Recheck Costco everyday. The first week of Sept. we were able to get a full size for 7 days for $134!!!! Got it through Costco. When I first started looking the same deal was $234. Rates change constantly.

Keep checking as you get closer to your trip. 4 days before my trip, I was able to get a full size from Alamo for 7 days for $110 back in September.

Check out Hotwire and carrentals.com. I have found them to have the best rates.

I think your rate is pretty good if that's for the whole weekend. Keep checking you never know.

Yes, keep checking. Ours went from $234 to $108 (for 5 days) picking up at FLL and dropping off at RSW about 9 days before we left. It appears the general rule is prices do drop the closer you get to your trip.

When you rent at the airport you are getting hit with an airport tax.
