Sat Nav might work out more expensive, as it would probably come with only the US maps..... (as ours only come with UK or European maps). So you'd then have to buy the UK maps when you come home..... could push the cost up......

and following on from that - never order a 4 door car - on every occasion I have booked a 2 door, but when you go and select your car, you are just told to take one from the intermediate row (or whatever size you have been told), and they've all got four doors, and most are actually bigger than intermediate etc.

Although the 2 door/4door tip often applies, it depends on which rental firm you use.

Alamo do have a lot of 2 door cars in the compact category and, as you say, you select your car at Orlando airport.

Some other firms do have very small 2 door cars and you do not get automatically upgraded. There is a greater chance of getting a small car in other airports.

Hi Minmouse,
Which site did you purchase your Disney Tickets from.
(Where you can just pay 20% deposit)
Thanks

MINMOUSE

Hi I bought the tickets from http://www.orlando-ticket-deals.co.uk

What would happen if I found a cheaper ticket price once I have purchased my tickets from you?
If you discover a cheaper ticket price once you have bought your tickets from us, we will refund you the difference. Please refer to our Price Promise for further information.

Do I pay for the tickets in full, or can I pay a deposit on them?
If you are travelling within 6 weeks of your booking, then we require that the full amount is paid up front. If you are travelling with us outside of 6 weeks, you may place a 20% deposit to confirm your booking. In this instance, the full balance would be due 6 weeks before your departure date. You may only place deposits payments with telephone bookings..

I bought my tickets from https://www.attractionticketsdirect.co.uk. They couldn't have been more helpful. You can also pay a deposit with this company and pay balance in full 6 weeks before departure. Once my balance was paid I received my tickets within 3 days. Only 5 weeks and 5 days not that I'm countingor anything!!
