Just booked a mini van with Avis under my husbands corporate code foe 7/25 to 8/2 for 308 total. Avis is not my preferred- Alamo is in MCO- but I cant come close to this price with Alamo!

Hi all- We have rented a ton of cars via Alamo before but we are a family of 4 and I always know what we will fit! On our upcoming trip I will have an extra child with me. Our luggage shouldnt be too awful (as it will be small suitcases) but trying to see what people have been getting in the...

This is certainly a "doable" trip! I live in CT too. I will say, I dont exactly enjoy that drive with traffic in the north east going through several major cities. From SW CT mapquest says it takes about 18 hours straight of driving time. It ALWAYS takes us longer with traffic (about 3 hours...

Thanks for reminding me- I just booked parking for White Plains at the SUNY lot this morning. We are flying out of there for our upcoming trip and the 32 or 33 a day at the airport is just INSANE! :)

If you can take the Tappsn Zee vs the GW, I would ALWAYS opt for that! We had an extremely unpleasant experience at the Maryland welcome center at about 3 am. Just be very careful of your surroundings etc. this stop was primarily for rest room use. I will never go there again, but makes a now...

I have a few things I wanted to add, sorry I didnt read all of the replies. I dont know where in CT you are, but I live in Southwest CT (almost in NY) and its more than a 16 hour drive. I just mapquested it again and it suggests 17 hours and 52 min with no stops. We have done this drive several...

We have done both, but much prefer flying. Especially if its only 6 days. Driving is just so exhausting. In regards to prices of flights, you may want to consider a few airports (IE if in NJ- Newark or Philadelphia) flying into Orlando or Tampa. Also, sometimes its much cheaper to leave a day...

I cant comment on that lot, but we have used LAZ parking numerous times. Its offsite but ridiculously quick and you can park for under $40 for a week. The lots are so close to BDL I would never pay to park onsite there. One of the few perks to me about flying out of Hartford is the cheap...

This is why I love Alamo so much. No need to stop at the counter. Can do online check in and go right to the car. As far as pricing I usually spend quite a bit of time when I first book looking for the "best" deal which is almost 99% of the time my back up ressie. After that I periodically...

We live in SW CT and like you when trying to find cheap airfare the key is flexbility. That includes looking at multiple airports (for us that is hartford, westchester, JFK, LGA, Newark, Newburgh, and we even did Islip once). Then to fly in to FL- we look at Orlando, Tampa and Daytona (Sanford...

In April we had a minor issue with Alamo but in Houston. Our flight was cancelled and we ended up getting in to Houston several hours after we were supposed to. When we turned in our rental it was over a $100 more than my paperwork. We had to work with the desk to get it corrected. They told us...

I would actually do a Disney waterpark. The last Orlando vacation we did was in August and it was SO hot. We actually enjoyed our waterpark time almost more than the Disney park time. I swore we wouldnt ever go back in the summer, lol. But this year we are going end of July/August to...

Just rebooked 7/25/18 to 8/2 on costco site for Alamo for 255 intermediate. Not sure I want that car size, so I kept my standard ressie too (which had gone up in price)

I booked directly on costco website, so I do not know what the codes were.

We stayed there last year. For a quick 2 night stay in Orlando. I will be honest, I MUCH prefer the timeshares, but the hotel was very nice. No issues what so ever, although I do believe they charge for parking (Where the time share does not). I would stay again for a quick stay.

My rate for Alamo via Costco website for a standard for 7/25 to 8/2 went from 287 to 272 today. $15 is $15!

We have also done Atlantis twice and this will be our 2nd Universal trip. I can say for Atlantis just check the temps in Nassau for Feb. Its not cold obviously, but it may not be as hot as you want. I agree with the statement while Atlantis is expensive, once you book your room, use of the...

I just checked as I am similar dates but its still exactly the same. But I am confident it will go down!

We are going the end of July for 5 days and opted to do one night at RPH and the rest at a much cheaper offsite. So we get 2 days of express pass and 3 days of leisure touring (which will likely include rope drops etc). We figured this was the best of both worlds and MUCH cheaper than the whole...

We did this drive a few years ago. We flew into MCO and then drove to Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale for a cruise. Then drove back to spend time in Orlando area. Flights were cheaper to Orlando at the time and rental cars are much cheaper to pick up and return to the same location. As stated...
