Great car that us comfortably from point A to B and back again. Customer service in person reps were nice, rental process was quicker than I thought and drop off was super easy. And did I mention the great price? I will use Thrifty again!Reviewed Apr 22 2024

Booked the vehicle online Paid for vehicle rental and insurance at that time. When got to Thrifty was told that insurance didnt cover driving. Had to buy more insurance which I could have purchased cheaper at home. For what we paid there were a lot of other options available . Felt a little ripped off after getting what appeared decent valueReviewed Mar 31 2024

They tried to give me an electric car since I picked a surprise vehicle. I thought the size would be a surprise. Wanted to charge me more for gas car. I refused. Car given to me was dirty and damaged inside. Didn't notice until.I left since I was in a hurry.Reviewed Mar 9 2024

Pickup was tedious. Lines, waiting... they said it was due to construction. I say after a week of construction they'd had enough time to get things working properly.Reviewed Mar 6 2024

I would like to see check in on line and eliminate the long wait lines at Orlando Airport. Take your confirmation across the street to the rental car parking lot and ck in with an attendant from dollar or thrifty. In the long run, it would make the operation run more quickly and smoothlyReviewed Feb 28 2024

Despite checking in online, I had a very lengthy wait at MCO. Also had issue with my credit card using encrypted numbers requiring a ~15 min phone call while at the counter.Reviewed Feb 6 2024

Thrifty did not honor the reservation. They are absolute scam artists.Reviewed Jan 21 2024

I was not told my rental would be an electric car. I was told by agent basically take it or upgrade to more expensive gasoline powered auto. Since it was late in the evening, I had no choice but to do that and spend s as almost $70 more than my original rental. The only vehicle we were able to rent was a Ram pick up truck. It was very difficult for me to get in and out of due to the fact that I’m handicapped and walk with a cane. The counter agent had a bad attitude also. Returning the vehicle st MCO was no easy task either. Staff there were very unorganized and there seemed to be a language barrier. Ultimately, my experience with Thrifty and/or Kayak was not a pleasant one. What made it more upsetting was the reason for the visit to Florida was to attend a family funeralReviewed Jan 9 2024
