What to know before you book here
Card rules are tighter here
Miami locations are among those that more often decline debit cards or to demand additional identification and proof of return travel. If you do not have a credit card in the main driver’s name, tell us before booking — we will check which suppliers at that location will accept it before you book.
One-way to Orlando is common
Florida one-ways within the state are widely available and the drop fee varies a lot by supplier. It is worth quoting two or three suppliers rather than assuming.
Cruise passengers
If you are picking up after a cruise rather than a flight, say so — port-area and airport locations price differently, and the shuttle logistics are not the same.

What this class really meansOn terminal logistics. Counter locations, shuttle arrangements and opening hours at Miami International Airport are set by the airport and the rental suppliers and do change. Your agent confirms the current pickup instructions for your specific supplier and booking in writing before you travel, rather than relying on anything printed on a website.
