Friends of ours usually do a one-way car rental for Port Canaveral.
Yes, I agree with the car rental suggestion. I rented a car from Budget Rental Cars in Leesburg right on Hwy 441 (it is in the direction towards ICHIBAN ALL YOU CAN EAT BUFFET RESTAURANT).

CruiseExpress does not cut you a break from their round-trip price if you need them only for one-way.

I recently went on a Trans-Atlantic cruise from Miami to Southhampton, England, and the car rental (Kia Forte) cost me less than $70 (plus gas, another $30 if I remember correctly). No tolls, as I chose the "NO TOLLS" option on my GPS (I wasn't in any hurry to get to the port plus the time difference was insignificant).

I imagine one can easily do the same with Port Canaveral (if anybody has, please chime in and tell me what it cost, as I am curious).
