Cost of picking up car at Cape is outrageous!

[bp traveler]

We have rented many cars post cruise from Cape Canaveral to drive back to the airport, but for some reason this time the pricing is outrageous!

 

I called and Budget said since they have to get the cars back to Orlando airport that is why it is so expensive!

 

It is over $350 for a weekly rental post cruise or $90 for a one way back to Orlando.

 

Anyone seeing the pricing going up from this location?

Lots of other car rental agencies in PC/Cocoa Beach - shop around using one of the comparison web sites (www dot carrentals dot com is one option).

 

Check some of the WDW sites (allears or mousesavers are two) for FLA discount codes.

 

When do you cruise? :confused: Book something now and then keep shopping - except for Christmas week prices tend to drop 2-3-4 weeks ahead of your rental date.

In the past we have always rented a car at the airport and dropped it off at Port Canaveral prior to the cruise then rented a car at the port and dropped it off at the airport following the cruise - not this time. We rented a car from the airport to the port at a reasonable price but we are taking a shuttle back to the airport because we could not find a reasonable rental. Not sure what the problem is but we could pay $20 a piece (6 of us) cheaper than we could rent a car/van for a few hours!
