Alamo save time another question

Hi everyone we are in our final 10 days before we return to the happiest place in earth. We think we have book Alamo save time but not 100% on how it works or if we have the correct paperwork.

So please could someone please explain what we need

Also explain what we actually do when we get to MCO.

Thanks in advance.

Go to the Save Time website ( alamo/en_US/car-rental/checkin.html )

Fill in your details and print the document out. It should have a barcode, that's the important bit. Once you have that you are all set, just bypass the desk at MCO and head straight for the garage. Get your car and then proceed to the exit where I believe the guy will scan your barcode and print out the agreement and away you go.

I haven't done it yet, but I will on Friday and by all reports, its excellent. I'm sure someone who has used it though will be able to explain it better than me!

Mike

Right first is Alamo Savetime open to all Alamo customers including thirdparty, You just obtain your rental number, fill it in online to get your barcode when filling in Savetime or with the Email Alamo send you. You need that barcode to be scanned at the barrier on your way out.
Alamo Savetime then says go to Kiosk and receive paperwork the same paperwork you have already printed off. Also the Kiosks don't like British paperwork it's very hit and miss.

Having used Alamo Savetime 6 times now at MCO it works for me, The important thing to have is the Barcode which must be scanned on exit where you will get your agreement/Contract and any other paperwork. Here they will scan your Credit Card and check your Driving Licence.

To sum up Savetime is Enough, you do not need to go the desk unless you need to upgrade. Go straight to garage staff will point you to your row pick the car you like and off you go to the barrier where you will get your agreement/Contract and any other paperwork. Here they will scan your Credit Card and check your Driving Licence.

. The keys are always in the cars at MCO. We did it again in May

Some people will go stright to the garage others will use the kiosks so there will be less people at the desk we all win

IF Savetime does not work then just do OLCI either will be fine

You can but you should do OLCI which is just for Virgin/Alamo customers.It's really the same as Savetime.

The paper work you need to show is it your rental agreement. Also is the save time just the paper with the barcode on it.

Yes but they will have all you details already on the computer if you do Savetime. It saves them having to input all your details thus Saving Time.
