The flight was very cheap but now i started looking at rental cars and they are all like over 400 dollars for a small, cheap little car!! I need a car on the airport and i would prefer to get a suv but im ok with the smaller cars because of price!! What should i do, where should i go? Thank you so much!!!

You might be better off taking a cab or shuttle to an off airport site to rent a car.The airport cars are much more expensive than places away from the airport.

ok, you flew into Mickey Mouseville at xmas and now you wonder why you can't find a car? LMAO Man, you'll be lucky to find a hotel room. Its Disney, at Xmas! PLEESE. Sorry dude, this is one of those times when a little research before you jumped would have helped. Unless you have to go to Orlando, I would check out changing your flights. How ever, chek on car prices first because Fl. is the most booked destinations over the winter holidays with Co. Ca and Utah coming in a close second for the sking. Good luck.

Eagle Rent A Car. They are fairly cheap and it is the one my property management company uses as they will do airport pickup and drop your car off ahead of time at your hotel/rental villa.Next question, where are you staying? Hotels that time of year will be a fortune and crowded.

I travel several times a year a purchase a rental car.Here are some of the affordable rental companies:Budget.com, Avis.com, Dollar.com, sometimes budges has a free day for renting for a 3 day weekend.Also you can search online for coupons.One tip I can also give you is, when I learned I can legitimately have family trips wrote off as a tax write off I was amazed how many people are not aware of it.Do you write off your trips, or do you pay the maximum?Here's a number where I found out how to write off their trips as a business trip.866-567-0848 (24hr recording)

I think it's bizarre. I had to come to Florida one day earlier than I planned just to save $300 on the car rental. The insanity seems to start on December 16.I checked every place that I could think of: at the airport, away from the airport, through a travel agent, through Sam's Club, and checking every brand rental company's website. Starting on December 16, they all increased their prices dramatically. Luckily, I hadn't booked the flight yet, and changed everything forward a day. Unfortunately, I don't think there's anything you can do but pay it.

U can rent a car at the airport right where u pick up bags.. and each company have their own rates and charge by the DAY/ My mom rented a car in miami for about 3 days and they'r like around $125something dollars/day.. just to give u an idea. Andif u booked your flight online sometimes they give you a flight+rental car deal if you havent noticed that. better rent a car cuz if u take a cab around the place u will be spending more for for that overall than for a car.
