MCO TERMINAL C Car Rentals

I'm flying from LAX to MCO this coming Thanksgiving day on Jet Blue. Jet Blue by then will be using the new Terminal C in the southern part of MCO. While there will be rental car desks in Terminal C, I wonder where the actual rental car pickups will be located? I'm not looking forward to hauling my bags onto a shuttle bus or onto the automated train back to Terminal A-B garage. Has any one heard/read the logistics for ground transportation at the new terminal?

There was space constructed on the first two levels of the C Garage for Rental Car operations so I assume they will be located there.

Anyone had success picking up a car from Enterprise in Terminal C. Was there much choice or would you recommend heading to Terminal A? Many thanks.

Update on Terminal C from recent return experience: We flew to MCO with Southwest, so pick-up at A or B was as always. Leaving with LH to FRA on Monday from Term. C was not terrific. Returns for C are done, at least now, at Terminal B returns (missed the sign saying this and drove up to C, so we had to circle again back to B). After returning at B, you need to cross back over to the main terminal and go to level 1, then to shuttle bays 28/29 and wait for a shuttle back to C to check-in for your flight. Shuttles for 8 PAX go every few minutes - supposedly - but, with approx. 40 people waiting on a Monday afternoon, it did take quite a while (Friday or Sunday probably a lot worse). We were told that they also use a large bus to shuttle, but none came while we were waiting. Might be better when returning a car to check-in with your luggage at C, and then return the car to B (having only your hand luggage in the shuttle back). Allow more time than you usually would!

On the positive side: Since there are still so few flights going out of C, the time to get through security was only about 3 or 4 minutes. Again, info for a Monday afternoon.

You can now drop off at Terminal C if Alamo/Enterprise. No knowledge of other firms. Pick up remains a bus ride to Terminal B.
