We're flying into MCO on Friday this week (11/10) - arriving around 2pm.

I have reservations with National for a rental car, but I know there are two National Rental Car pickup areas. We're flying in on Southwest, so I believe we'll be in the B side for National.

What I'm wondering is how do I get to the A side from B side National? In case there isn't anything on the Emerald Aisle that we like, i'd like to check out the other side to see if we could find something more interesting (we'd really like a convertible, but i'm not willing to pay twice the normal Full Size rate for it).

So how do I get to the A side for National, when i'm standing on the Emerald Aisle on the B side?

Thansk for your help!!
 
Go back into the airport terminal, take the elevators/escalators back up to the Hyatt and stores and ticketing counter level, cross past the security gates, and go down the other side whose elevators and escalators look similar, then out those doors and across to the rental car areas which look similar.

After getting down to the lower level on the other side, not sure how far down the concourse lengthwise (more comfortable using the inside corridor past the carousels instead of out in the summer heat) you will have to walk to get in line with National's section of the garage.

Southwest is A side. National is on the 2nd floor of the garage. On B side,National is on the ground level of the garage.
 
If you are declining the rental companys insurance, and counting on your credit card, check your policy before choosing a convertible. Some credit cards exclude convertibles and luxury cars.

I have never seen a convertible on EA, but we dont travel all that often. Good luck and enjoy your trip.
 

Confirming DebbieB, SW is on the A side.
