Rental Car Pick-Up late at night MCO

[wilkeliza]

Hi board. So I want to rent a car for the few days before my college program. However, my flight comes in at 10:55pm. If there are any delays we might now make it to the pick up location by midnight which is when the rental center closes. Does anyone know if they typically stay late if they get word that flights are delayed or if for any reason we can't make it we can get our money back because we won't be able to get back to the airport the next morning to pick it up.

It depends on the company actually. We were once delayed because of snow, and ended up having my sister pick up the car for us, afterarranging that with the company. If you do end up delayed, I would recommend that you call the company and see just what their policy is.

What company are you renting from?

The listing for the airport Alamo location on the Alamo website says 12am to 11:59pm (thus open 24hours). I presume other companies have similar hours. Just make sure that your car reservation has your flight info on it, and they will keep track of your arrival. (But make sure to call if your flight number changes)

We are looking at Enterprise. It says they close at midnight and first pick up of the day is 6am.

From what i remember being an airline employee and coming in all hours of the day, i have never remembered the car rental company any of them being closed. MCO is one of the bussiest international airports and have planes landing all hours of the night.
