NEVER DOLLAR, at least at MCO. Terrible experiences with them, just search.
When making the reservation, I never book with a company that wants my credit card number when reserving. Free cancellation is the name of the game! At MCO I only use the "legacy" agencies, those that have rental desks AT the airport. I haven't used Sixt yet because they haven't come in as the cheapest for my needs, but they are a huge rental company in Europe with good ratings; if they had the best price, I'd book with them.
Be careful when renting; make sure you aren't mistakenly getting an electric vehicle, which is what seems to have the best rates. I am not opposed to electric vehicles, but I don't want to spend my vacation time trying to find charging stations, waiting for the vehicle to charge, etc. Also, I don't completely understand the rules for returning an EV... how "full" does the charge have to be, and stuff like that.
