Cheap Thrifty Car Hire in Ottawa

Car-sharing services can be a flexible and cost-effective solution for brief journeys.

If sharing driving responsibilities, check the policies regarding additional drivers. Some companies charge fees for each extra driver, while others may include it for free under certain conditions.

A credit card is often required for deposits, especially with suppliers like Thrifty in Ottawa. If you only have a debit card, use our website filter to find suitable offers or consider obtaining a credit card. Ensure that the main driver’s card is used to avoid any additional fees.

If you are travelling to Ottawa and considering hiring a car, choosing an in-terminal car hire supplier can save you time and hassle. Suppliers like Thrifty have locations right at the airport, allowing you to avoid shuttle buses or meet-and-greet services and ensuring a quicker and more convenient pickup.

Steer clear of peak traffic times to minimize delays and frustration.

If you're traveling with pets, confirm the rental company's pet policy before booking. Some companies allow pets but may have specific fees or restrictions, so it’s best to clarify in advance.

Always keep your rental agreement, identification, and insurance information easily accessible during your rental period. This can help resolve any issues quickly.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Ottawa, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70
