Avis generally charges $13/day for each carseat with a max of $65 for the rental so two seats at the max is $130.

AAA provides a one free carseat per rental when renting from Hertz using an AAA code. This benefit is not applicable to Avis. Some AAA locations do offer free loaner car seats but you would have to find one that does and go there to pick them up.

Your options:
Bring your own seats(airlines do not charge to check car seats)
Rent them from Avis
Rent from Hertz and only pay for one seat
Rent the seats from a third party that delivers to the airport. A quick search turned up PK Family Rentals

Too bad Silvercar does not have a location at MCO as they provide free childseats on request with their rentals.
