We usually use Alamo, but I just booked Hertz for our next trip.

Don't forget to check Quidco for cash back.

I agree with Paul, whichever is the cheapest.
All have good and bad staff, all get the odd bad car, we have used Dollar most (get Express card and bypass the line) they are my 1st choice, maybe its because I have done over 20 rentals with them and have express card but I get a free upgrade almost every time. Used Alamo & Hertz last year no problem, Budget 3 or 4 times OK.

If you post your dates and best price you can find the if anyone sees cheaper they will let you know.

As with most people here, for us the lowest price normally wins as most of the firms on-site at MCO are much of a muchness. Previously have found Netflights (used to be Airline Network) to be good on getting the cheapest deal.

However, one extra thing I always like to consider is which airline you are flying with and what car hire company they recommend or do their fly-drive packages with. My opinion has always been to avoid this company as more than half the people on the flight will go with whoever they are told to and so the queues to pick up your car are likely to be huge (especially if you aren't able to get off the plane first). Pick a different company and you'll probably be the only one in the queue. Hey, I'm going to be spending two weeks queuing for rides and shows, the last thing I want to do is queue to pick up a car as well!

Although having said that, I got caught out once when I booked Dollar because my airline went with Alamo. The problem was that our flight was delayed and we ended up arriving ten minutes after another UK flight where the airline recommended Dollar - end result was that the queues at both desks were enormous!
