Hi. These are a few prices that are with Alamo as I much prefer them. Now there will be cheaper options but predominantly they will be with Dollar or Thrifty. Neither of these will I touch
Also it's always worth considering Hertz and Avis, good companies.

I have done 9th Aug pick up to 23rd Aug drop off. To save retyping the car types they are in the same order as Brits

Brits
Int £494
Fullsize £524
Int Suv £686
Standard SUV £765

Virgin
£399
£445
£412
£445

Netflights
£517
£548
£717
£800

Andy @ Discountfloridacarhire
£517
£548
£717
£800

OK. The problem you have is you are spanning the 16th Aug. This is the date when those whose holiday is each side of this date are better off doing 2 x bookings and swapping the car out. Before the 16th prices are high and continue to be high for the entire rental. But do a split booking for example 9th to the 16th and then 16th to the 23rd and it comes in cheaper with some 3rd party suppliers. So you could call into the Disney car care centre for 20 mins, drop the car off and drive out in another one and save money. If you ask they will let you keep the same car!

Now for an Int SUV Virgin have a great price. But if you look a bit wider Andy for example has that type with Budget for £395 - Wow, good saving. But it's Budget.
He also has an Int car with Budget for £298 - awesome price

I know what I would be doing. I would be on to that Virgin Atlantic website like a long dog and getting it booked now. Those prices wont hold for long. Or, do a live chat with Andy when he is online. He has some really keen prices with Budget.

Child seat. Take your own, saves money and you know how it works.
Best of luck. Oh and remember these are just a few of the suppliers there are tons more.
