Jons9999 Posted July 13, 2017 #1 Share Posted July 13, 2017 We can fly out of FLL for $216, but $79 from MCO.. two of us.. worth it to rent a car from around POM? Uber from POM would be $40ish anyway, car rental I am guessing not much more than that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted July 13, 2017 #2 Share Posted July 13, 2017 MCO is around 3.5 hours from the Port of Miami at best. We've had one-way rental cars for as low as $54, plus gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jons9999 Posted July 13, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Plus get back home about 45 minutes sooner.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted July 13, 2017 #4 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I would choose MCO for the savings - rent the car and stop someplace fun for lunch before checking in for your flight. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare LHT28 Posted July 13, 2017 #6 Share Posted July 13, 2017 what time is the flight from MCO? Plan on 4+ hr drive from POM incase of traffic issues & checkin time usually 1-2 hr prior for Domestic flights Off the ship by 8 am get to rental place maybe on the road by 9am would not be worth the hassle for me but it is a personal choice only you can decide what works best for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueHerons Posted July 16, 2017 #7 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I agree it would not be worth the hassle for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisesfun65 Posted July 16, 2017 #8 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Not worth it for me. Rental car + gas + tolls + lunch money + lots of additional hour = not worth it to save just a few bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jons9999 Posted July 16, 2017 Author #9 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Time really isn't an issue, we would actually get home sooner.. Cost of car rental and Uber to FLL is about a wash.. I still haven't decided.. options are 5:00 from FLL for $320 each 8:50 from FLL for $216 8:30 from MCO for $79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted July 16, 2017 #10 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I'd be heading to MCO for those savings especially if it means you get home earlier or the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjules Posted July 19, 2017 #11 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Did that last year ... the car rental was only $9. It was a long drive though. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frisbeewife Posted July 19, 2017 #13 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Did that last year ... the car rental was only $9. It was a long drive though. $9?!?!?!?! Was that a typo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thinfool Posted July 19, 2017 #14 Share Posted July 19, 2017 $9 Was that a typo? Probly correct. I have had one way rentals that return a car to an Orlando location for a very attractive price....although not "$9" attractive! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flymia Posted July 19, 2017 #15 Share Posted July 19, 2017 $9?!?!?!?! Was that a typo? They must have been low on cars at MCO. They rather have someone pay a small fee than pay an employee or truck to bring the cars. As for the OP. Keep in mind the tolls. Around $20+, and of course gas. The drive is pretty easy, non-stop on a Saturday or Sunday morning should take no more than 4 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
