Lorey2007 Posted May 5, 2019 #1 Share Posted May 5, 2019 We'll have a Budget rental car to drop off at Port Canaveral. Can we drop our bags at NCL Sun and then return our rental car? If so what time can we drop our bags? We would like to be at check in by 11am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it really that bad to drop off a car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jencrash Posted May 6, 2019 #5 Share Posted May 6, 2019 On our March 2019 NCL Epic cruise, we used Alamo pre-cruise and Budget post-cruise I would recommend Alamo, they were very organized when we used them, they are so close to the terminal you and see the NCL ship from their location. We turned in our vehicle and within 10 minutes we were on the shuttle bus on the way to the terminal. They had several shuttles running. The Port Canaveral Budget location is very unorganized. I saw people waiting for anywhere from 20-30 minutes for their one shuttle bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorey2007 Posted May 6, 2019 Author #6 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Thanks we already have a precruise prepaid Budget rental. If the wait is too long for the shuttle we will call a Uber. Anyone know if it takes a long time to just return the car ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexddd Posted May 6, 2019 #7 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Looks like you are sailing on a Monday? If you are going on a Monday, you may not be too bad off if there aren't a lot of ships there. We've used Budget there several times and it just gets worse every time. You can take their shuttle back to the ship - it is only about a 5 minute ride but getting to your terminal sometimes can be backed up with the cars. Both dropping off and picking up cars at that Budget location stinks. Very unorganized. Last time we tried Avis and it was just as bad. We usually drop everyone at the terminal and I or me and DS will return car to get back to ship terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we are sailing next Monday we will pick up the car at MCO on Friday and stay in Orlando until Monday AM. What time do you recommend getting to Budget? Our rental is prepaid will that make it any quicker to drop off? Would taking a Uber instead of the shuttle avoid any of the traffic? Is there a way to find out how many ships are in port?
