Wow. This all sounds great! Thanks for the feedback! We don't rent cars often so I'm always curious to hear the experiences of others.Used UT twice this year. Both with Budget. In February we got a Toyota Sienna hybrid minivan (booked regular minivan) from Orlando/Sanford. Then in the beginning of April we got a Nissan Altima (booked a full size car) in Gulfport, MS. Both were pristine and under 10k miles.
Neither of those airport locations offer direct to car via the Fastbreak program, though I am signed up for it. No hassle at the counter. Just showed license and CC. They didn’t try to upsell anything, as I had all my selections done in my Fastbreak account. The agent at SFB did inform me about the tolls though.
I had another reservation booked for June with Avis via UT that I had to cancel due to my flight being cancelled. It just took a quick email to UT with all the information requesting a cancellation and refund. I had a reply the next business day (I sent the email on a Sunday). A day or two after that the charge was credited back to my CC.
Thanks for this info, what is their typical cancellation policy? Can you even cancel day of if needed?I had another reservation booked for June with Avis via UT that I had to cancel due to my flight being cancelled.

When do I need to cancel my reservation to ensure a full refund?
Cancellation requests received prior to the pick up date and time will be processed and refunded in full. Please Contact Us to cancel your reservation.
The link in the first post of this thread gives me the same prices as buying a ticket and car rental.I JUST bought tickets the other day from UT and then realized they had an amazing car rental deal if you buy tickets. Can I still get this deal somehow even though I already purchased my tickets?
Oooooh ok that's fantastic. I thought it was just showing me the good prices when I clicked that link because I had a ticket in my cart from playing around.The link in the first post of this thread gives me the same prices as buying a ticket and car rental.
Prior to the Disboards team up with UT you could get the rental deal by purchasing any ticket they sell at the same time.

Weird. It gives me the discount only if I log into my UT account first. Not sure what’s going on there.FWIW it doesn't give me the bundled prices.

Can always add a ticket to trigger the discount though. They do sell more than theme park tickets… ;-)
Been wondering this myself. These are absolutely massive discounts of like $500-600 off. How are they able to do this?What's the business model here? I'd imagine UT are normally getting the thinnest of margins from people purchasing just theme park tickets. What's the incentive for the rental companies to give such steep discounts here when it's dang near impossible to get similar discounts normally? Also with that "loophole" of sorts to buy one movie ticket for $13? I trust the reports here of folks saying that it works but I'm still wary...
