  1. At Avis they had those tour books/pamphlets and we found the coupon in there...

     

    Nice. They are running a November special for residents of the County for $15.00. Still paid $10 to park, bought $10 worth of food, and $10 worth of stuff!

     

    It was a great day. I had not been in 11 years and the Atlantis show alone was amazing.

  2. Forgive me if it is listed somewhere in this thread......we are renting a car at MCO and driving to Cocoa Beach.....I saw a toll road listed on google maps. Anyone know how much the toll is? Details? It's been a long time since I've ever been on a toll road. Do you still have to have exact change?

    Thanks!!

     

    I use Avis who has electronic transponders for the tolls but they charge a surcharge of $2.50 a day plus the tolls. If you stop to pay there are 2 between the airport and here and I think a total of $2.50

  3. Don't use AVIS Cape Canaveral

    I was in port for a cruise last week and rented a $26 car plus taxes (used coupons)

    had the car only 4 1/2 hours

    when I got back from my cruise a week later I see a charge of $110

    I call he said he would refund the difference

    well 3 days later the refund is only $46 not $78

    I don't know how this guy can just charge anything they like

    Either he doesn't know how to add/subtract or just adding charges and seeing if they stick.

    I should not have to spend hours to fix a simple problem

     

    they also on the phone before my rental said last shuttle 6pm when i got there they said 5pm even tho they close at 6pm so I had to pay my own way back to the ship(which is fine)

     

    -- this is just my experience and others may have no problems just posting mine, I never review businesses but when i had to make 6 phone call and spend hours out of my day for a 4 hour rental

     

    You may want to call back and talk to the owner Bob. I happen to know he runs an up and up business.

  4. [quote name='amybear912']Thanks again jamida... I found Hampton Inn also had the deal... Same price as Comfort Inn... Still not sure who we are going with, but I set myself a deadline for end of the week to book:) Keeps me from driving myself nuts for too long trying to make a decision...

    I just noticed we are sailing the same weekend except you're on the Dream and we board Freedom the next day...

    Preston... This thread was invaluable to me many years ago when we first sailed from PC... So I knew I had to check it out this time around... I was glad to see it was still going...

    Can you give me an opinion on a restaurant called Old Fish House? And do you think walking is feasible if we choose a hotel near there? Or would the trolley jamida mentioned be a better option? I'm assuming the trolley has hours of operation that might not work with our dinner plans...[/QUOTE]

    The Fish House has been there for years. I am not a fish person so have not been but have never heard anything bad. As for walking I would!
  5. :confused: How long temporary terminal for Ecstasy?

    Hi, I was hoping you could answer some questions for us. We heard on here that there is work being done on the terminal at Port Canaveral. How long is the cruise terminal for the Ecstasy going to be down? Some other members have said it was a pain and long lines were created. We cruise on September 24, 2012 any chance all work will be done by then?

    Also, we are thinking of LaQuinta Inn and Suites in Cocoa Beach to stay at. What are your thoughts on this hotel? We are renting a car and driving from MCO/orlando int airport.

    Thanks for any answers or thoughts.

    Not really sure about the terminal. I suspect it will not change by September. LaQuinta is great and a very good location. I have stayed there. Many food and drink choices close by. Buffalo Shrimp on the pier or anything at Boston Beef! Rent the car from Avis, Hertz, Budget, Thrifty or Enterprise and the will shuttle you to the ship in the morning.
