When looking at hotwire at the different rental options for MCO (Orlando) some say car and counter located at Airport, others say varies by rental agencies. If it does say "varies by rental agency" does this mean it is offsite of the Airport property witha shuttle? Would that also mean if it says "Counter and Car are at airport" than it will give you an onsite rental agency (for MCO that being Avis, Alamo, National)
Thanks Nick |

When using the dates for MCO on Hotwire for car rentals, some show as car and counter at airport and some say "varies by rental agency" just plug in any dates to see what I mean.

I just tried one set of dates and they all appear as "varies by location". Can you please let us know what dates you searched for so that i can see exactly what you are seeing on your own monitor... i have a guess as to what the difference is, but will need to see it to confirm.

I see it now (and not the situation i originall thought)...
QUOTE If it does say "varies by rental agency" does this mean it is offsite of the Airport property witha shuttle? Would that also mean if it says "Counter and Car are at airport" than it will give you an onsite rental agency (for MCO that being Avis, Alamo, National) I would think that "varies by rental agency" would mean that it may be onsite or off-site (shuttle)... but i agree that "counter and car are at the airport" would indicate that the rental is onsite and i think you'd have a good case to complain if you received something other than an 'on site' company.Let us know what you ultimately decide (and if the onsite/varies by location) was 'true' based upon what was shown by HOTWIRE.
