Car rental help

[Beezle2]

Hello all

I am looking for some advice about car rental, I've never had to arrange some thing as twisted as this is looking and I could use some outside help please.

I need to rent a car at MCO for arrival day. We need it for that night and the next morning to get from the airport to POFQ for one night and then to move to SSR. 4/23-4/24

We will need a car for the weekend when we move from SSR to Universal. Pick up Fri-dropoff Sun when we move to BWV. 4/29-5/1

Then we need one for our last day 5/4 to get around shopping and to the airport.

Any advice or thoughts will be welcome. It might be easier just to rent a car for the whole time but I want to do it as enexpensivly as possible. We would need at least a midsize car and I do have the Entertainment book.

Thanks a bunch!!

It sounds like you'd be better off renting for the week. In all honesty, with all the running around and waiting for them to pick you up, you'll be spending over half your vacation dealing with car rentals. Even if it's $30 more, I'd just rent for the week. It just doesn't make sense to try to save a small amount of money when your spending hours of vacation time doing so.

Yes, the more I think about it, it seems to make the most sense to get the car on 4/29 when we move from SSR over to Universal and just keep it until we go back to the airport on 5/4. I looked over at National and they gave me a $134 price quote for that time frame. I'm going to check again later because I didn't have my Entertainment book available to check the price with those coupons. They also have a one day rate of $24 that I could use for the day we arrive. So about $160 unless I can find anything better.
