Car Hire with Thrifty EU

When renting a car, understand the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy means you return the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means you return it with the same level of fuel. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

Before your trip, confirm if your rental includes roadside assistance. This can be crucial in case of breakdowns or emergencies during your rental period.

Some agencies may provide a complimentary tank of fuel with your rental. Be aware of the terms, such as how much fuel you need to return with to avoid fees.

Prefer to collect your car at the airport? Want to be greeted by Thrifty EU staff? Or would you rather take a shuttle to the pick-up site? Thrifty EU offers various options tailored to your travel preferences.

Before finalizing your booking, see if the rental agency offers free cancellation. This can be invaluable if your travel plans unexpectedly change.

When renting a car, it's crucial to understand the different insurance options available. Selecting the right insurance can protect your finances in case of an accident. Common options include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and liability insurance, so make sure to confirm the required coverage with the provider.

If you're seeking extra comfort or features, inquire about upgrade options at the rental desk. Often, there are discounted upgrades available at pickup.

Before making a rental, check if your personal auto insurance covers rental vehicles. Many policies and credit cards provide this protection, helping you save on extra insurance fees.
