Car Rental Delivery

Question

I will be renting a vehicle my second week there (Nov). Is there a reputable car company that would bring my car to Disney All Stars Resort but that I could return at the Airport? Do I have to return to the airport to rent a car?

Answer

In Orlando, many car rental companies allow for both delivery and off-site returns, which can be convenient if you want the car brought to a Disney Resort like All Stars and return it later at the airport. Not all companies provide resort delivery, so it’s important to check in advance and confirm fees.

Car Rental Delivery Options:

Alamo / National / Enterprise – These companies have a strong presence in Orlando and may offer vehicle delivery to Disney Resort hotels. You can often book online and request the car to be delivered to your resort, then return at Orlando International Airport (MCO). There is usually a delivery fee, and advance notice is required.
Sixt – Sixt sometimes offers resort delivery, especially for premium rentals. They also allow one-way returns at the airport. Check their Orlando location and confirm delivery options for Disney resorts.
Local Concierge Services – Some smaller local rental agencies specialize in Disney resort delivery. Examples include “Orlando Car Rental Delivery” services that bring vehicles directly to your hotel. These often offer flexible pick-up and drop-off but may have higher fees.

Important Considerations:

Not all Disney resorts are eligible for direct delivery, so check with the rental company before booking.
Delivery usually requires scheduling a specific time; same-day requests may not be accommodated.
Returning the car at the airport is usually straightforward with major companies and avoids extra charges for returning at a resort (some companies may charge a “one-way fee”).
Booking online and contacting customer service to confirm resort delivery is strongly recommended to avoid last-minute issues.

In summary, you do not have to return to the airport to rent a car initially. Companies like Alamo, National, Enterprise, or local concierge-style rentals can deliver a vehicle to Disney All Stars Resort, and you can return it at Orlando International Airport, but plan ahead and confirm delivery fees and scheduling.
