Thrifty @ MCO? Please tell me your experiences...

[classicpooh]

Using the mousesaver code I just got a great rate on a minivan from Thrifty ($258 total for 8 days).
I also have one reserved from dollar for $337 for the same time frame...

What have your experiences been with Thrifty? I would like to save the $80 but I am not sure that the offsite hassle is worth it... TIA

I have used Thrifty before but NOT at MCO. My experiences with Thrifty in other cities has been very good. No problems or complaints. Thrifty has shuttles that come by all the time to pick you up and bring you to the Thrifty location which are usually very close by to the airport.
I had a reservation booked with Thrifty for later this month at MCO and the ONLY reason I changed it was because I found a lower rate with Dollar otherwise I would not hesitate to use Thrifty. I hope that helps you a little.

I've used them a couple times at MCO when I couldn't get anything on Priceline. Excellent prompt shuttle service and nice cars. Once they were a little pushy on the insurance, but that was the only negative, and it was just a minor one. We'll be using them again if Bill Shatner won't give us a car.

We used them in June and saved close to $100 doing so. We had a great experience and we will plan to use them again on our next trip. It is so worth the money you save.

Thanks for the replies... I appreciate the information. I think we will go with Thrifty (we could not get a better deal from priceline either this time around). After all it is saving me $80.00! Thanks again.
