Port Canaveral car rental return

[Blue Flamingo]

We plan on renting a car from MCO to Port Canaveral, what agencies have a shuttle to and from Port Canaveral.

Sailing Freedom of the Seas in September, first time on RC.

Thanks.

I believe they all do.

 

I like to rent from Hertz. Because they are closest to the cruise terminal - their shuttles get to/from faster.

 

You might pay a little premium for Hertz over others but on disembarkation day if you are rushing to make a flight, you want to get to the rental car as quickly as possible, not waiting around for a shuttle which doesn't come as often because it has farther to travel.

WOW! That is wonderful, thank you Claria and a shout out to.. The Captain.

[Blue Flamingo]

Thank you Queen of Oakville, that is good to know. Our return flight leaves at 530 pm.

Used budget twice, they have a shuttle to take you both ways, went fine both times

Instead of paying the one-way fee with the car rental agencies, I've found it cheaper to park offsite and take the shuttle to the port.

 

The shuttles run from the fenced-in parking lot every 10-15 minutes. I've never had to wait more than 5 minutes for a shuttle, whether I'm headed to the ship or returning from it.

We have found very little (if any) one-way fees with car rentals within the state of Florida.

We have had better luck with Hertz too. Budget shuttle was very slow and the line to get a car was long.

I agree. For these cruise port locations - they know that after you drop off the car, someone will be around to drive it right back to the airport. I think they have to turn around the cars very quickly.

Pay less is closest. You can practically walk fro T1
