Need Avis Advice/info Please

[mariamard]

HAS ANYONE HAD BETTER LUCK WITH AVIS NEW LOCATION? I KNOW THERE WAS A FEW EARLY PROBLEMS WITH SHUTTLE, SERVICE ISSUES, SLOW COMPUTERS, ETC. BACK IN AUGUST. THE PRICE FOR A MINI VAN TO SEAT US ALL IS $85 PER DAY. SHOULD I GO WITH THIS OR MEARS? HOW MUCH IS IT PER PERSON? HOW ABOUT A TOWN CAR SERVICE? WE HAVE 3 ADULTS, 2 LITTLE ONES IN CAR SEATS AND WE NEED TO BRING A SCOOTER FOR MOTHER IN LAW. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ANYONE??????????

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! It sounds like you need an Ford Excursion! Just responded to another post on rental car vs shuttle. In our case the rental made sense. With a scooter and car seats (we rented 1 ) you may want to call AVIS to discuss. Although I was very pleased with the car had I not had a preferred customer card (allowed me to go straight to the car) I would have been upset with the service. The line at the terminal was very slow. One clerk working it upon arrival and I checked it out upon return - same thing! Not sure what is going on as Orlando is a major Airport. The ease of having a car at our disposal more than made up for the additional cost. Sorry I could not help you more.

THANKS. I READ YOUR OTHER POST. WE WILL BE AT WDW FOR 2 NIGHTS BEFORE CRUISE I THINK THAT WE WILL JUST KEEP THE MINI VAN . UNLESS A DIFFERENT RENTAL COMPANY GETS A BETTER RATE OUT THERE. I WAS JUST CONCERNED ABOUT BEING TIED UP AT THE RENTAL OFFICE. TIME IS MONEY

Check www.mousesavers.com for Avis codes. Our one way Avis minivan rental was $60/day. Good luck.

Don't know if this will help, I haven't used it yet. I bookmarked this site from a discussion on the DIS Budget Board:

It lists different discount codes for car rentals:

I used that same site, www.rentalcodes.com and used the K110601 code for Avis and got a Mini Van for 52.99 for a one way rental from Tampa to Cape Canaveral with unlimited miles! Can't do any better than that!!

Hi
I couldn't get that ratecodes.com website to load on my computer. I did try that avis code k110601 and it saved us about $15 on a 1 way rental to the port. Do you need any proof for that code to work (AAA membership ??) just don't want any nasty surprises when we pick up the car.
Thanks
