Avis/Budget/Payless hightway tolls
Tomorrow, my wife will rent a car from Payless at MCO.
She will go from Orlando to Cocoa Beach tomorrow; stay in Cocoa Beach for almost one week, and then return back to MCO from Cocoa Beach.
Should she expect tolls?
Are all toll booths still manned on the Orlando to Cocoa Beach freeway (which highway number?) - so she can pay cash?
Or does she take the Avis/Budget/Payless highway toll program?
Then does lane does she go through?
See below re: toll program for Avis/Budget/Payless.

There are two tolls on the Beach Line (SR 528) between MCO and Cocoa beach. Each of them will have a manned cash toll lane. The manned toll plazas may look a bit like an off ramp since the road continues straight ahead for those that use a toll transponder, but they are pretty clearly signed. If you go through the cash lanes there should not be a charge by the rental company.
