Technically no difference whatsoever. However the cars change by the minute let alone the hour.

Saying that no way on this earth would I be prepared to lug cases from one side to the other if for example the choice was poor in A

Tom

I've seen some Dibbers who suggest splitting their party up and exchanging opinions on the choices by mobile.

As we always leave our mobiles on flight mode all holiday we've never tested the theory. Apart from which I wonder how good the signal is between two multi-storey structures with a major complex in between.

Mick. Not for you and me by the look of it.

If I sent my Wife to side B and she couldn't find an SUV with leather seats she would play hell and get thrown out.

Unless of course 500 drivers who have just landed at side A on Southwest or Jet Blue have just beaten you to the Alamo garage on side A.

Erm. The majority of passengers landing at MCO are on internal flights - not flights from the UK!

Well, you'd have to watch the flow of people off the trains and make a judgement!

I seem to recall the Hertz garage on the A side seeming to be smaller but I'm not sure about that and don't know if it's the same for the other brands too.

I suppose I could watch people leaving monorail 4 with me but as I can't see the other three monorails I doubt that I could make a valued judgement.

I'll stick to garage B

Its my first time with Avis next month, I have Avis preferred, does it matter then which side I go to? Never thought of this until just reading this thread!

Pure guess, assuming Avis have A & B too, I'd do the same as I have for other car suppliers, B for south to the 417, A for north to the 528.
