Everything went as smooth as can be. They didn’t have a van but we got a X-Large SUV.

Ok the Kayak reservation site, I selected the pickup time of 12:00 on a Saturday. The location closes at 12:00!! By complete luck, I saw their hours on their web site that morning and called them around 11:40. They agreed to wait for me until around 12:15. Another couple came in behind me (they also selected 12:00 pickup time), so they were lucky that I had called ahead and they benefited from my call. Otherwise the branch would have closed and pick up would not have been available until Tuesday… due to Monday being a Thanksgiving holiday. Takeaway message: The proposed pickup times on Kayak’s site are not synced with the agencies and cannot be completely trusted.

We received a brand new car. It was great as we travelled a lot with it. The GPS console wasn’t working 100% of the time. But aside from that it was great.

The parking lot for picking up car is a bit far from terminal. Drop off was a bit confusing since there is no drop off lanes. But no bad. Friendly staff

We are used to a SUV with a built-in GPS which this vehicle didn't have - so that was a disappointment. We would have even paid a little extra for that feature but it wasn't even offered.

Mediocre|Jul 2024

The frond desk employees were not a pleasure to deal with. The person who handled the pick-up was distracted and when I ask for clarification on something, he was arrogant and dismissive. When we had a problem during our trip, the employee who answered the phone showed no compassion or interest in our situation and did not handle the situation professionally. He even gave very unsound advice. I ended up contacting the manager who thankfully was very supportive, listened to our concerns and was overall exceptional in her customer service! Unfortunately, the front desk people are the first and last interactions that customers have. I will probably not rent with Thrifty again.

Poor|Jun 2023

After spending 1 hr on the phone with a Thrifty representative the day prior to my car pickup to advise that my flight was delayed, I was told on arrival that my reservation had been cancelled because I hadn’t arrived on time. Thrifty was unsure that they could find me a car. After all other customers had been cared for they addressed my issue and found a car. The car they gave me hadn’t been cleaned. I had booked the car months in advance and had prepaid for it. Totally outrageous service.

The pickup was not smooth. No cars were available and they had only a large pick up truck and had to return later that evening. Took over an hour to get a vehicle (long wait) and the only saving grace was the counter staff as they were great but clearly overwhelmed with the lack of availability.

We landed, and we did the paperwork . They didn't have the vehicle that I reserved but they gave me a upgrade for the same price they quoted. Which was very nice. To this point I'm still using the vehicle but would suspect the return will be just as easy....thanks so much Budget.. Nathan

We had booked an SUV and only cars were available when we got there. One of the pieces of luggage had to ride in the backseat everytime we changed locations. They said they upgraded us to a “full sized” car, because the SUV wasn’t available. Staff was as helpful as possible working with what they had.
