What time for a car rental?

[cruizn2escape]

Post cruise we are renting a car. What time should I put as the pick up time? Cruise from Port Everglades, car rental FLL. I was thinking 10:30, but not sure. Anyone have first hand experience?

That would be the latest I would schedule it for....as most people are off the ship by then. :)

I usually put 10:00 am.

If you are not able to pick up your rental car within an hour of when you schedule it, you may want to call the rental car company and let them know you are held up. Last year in Jacksonville, we were delayed getting off the ship and when we showed up 30 to 45 minutes late at the rental car office, they had already given our car to someone else and didn't have a comparable car available. We ended up having to get a car several categories above what we needed and had to pay the difference....

That is exactly what I am concerned about.
