Arriving after all the UK International Flights?

We don't get into Orlando until 1800 so I asume Virgin and BA flights will have gone through by then.

We have a car hired with Alamo

Will there be much choice at this time or will we be getting left with everything no one wanted earlier therefore meaning less choice and desirable cars?

Are you flying indirect?

We flew in August after completing immigration at Philadelphia so arrived in Orlando as a domestic passenger. We got our luggage, went straight to garage and chose our car.. We landed about 6-40pm. Plenty of cars to choose from

It is not just UK airlines that fly into Orlando. There are literally dozens of flights arriving every day,at all hours, so there is always a heavy demand on rental cars. No one can possibly forsee how many cars will be available when you get there; you may have to wait for one to be returned prior to one of the many outgoing evening and night flights, then cleaned and checked over.

Well said. The whole of Orlando does'nt just revolve around people from the UK.

For every car that leaves another will arrive... Your chosen vehicle may not be there for you and a larger car just roles off the cleaning line... Will always be luck of the draw.

Feels like it just revolves about people from Brazil at the moment

Have a look at the Orlando Airport web site - arrivals and departures and you will see many flights. Not all the people on all the flights hire a car (that includes those from UK) but many do and as said its a bit of luck of the draw. I have never seen only a few cars - always seems to be lots but I suppose it depends upon who you book with.
