Cheap Thrifty Car Hire Deals at Terminal 1 Station, Chicago

Before finalizing your booking, check if the rental company offers free cancellation. This can provide peace of mind if your travel plans change unexpectedly.

To save on refueling costs when departing from Terminal 1 Station, look for deals with a 'full to full' tank fuel policy, or even better, a free tank fuel policy, as opposed to a 'half-full to full' one.

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 rental agreements come with mileage limits, while others offer unlimited mileage. Make sure to review the mileage policy to avoid unexpected fees.

Select a car that fits the number of passengers and luggage for a comfortable journey.

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.

If you don’t find what you need at Terminal 1 Station with Thrifty, you might discover more car hire options in Chicago, which can occasionally be cheaper.

Some rental companies offer a free tank of fuel with your rental. Be sure to understand the terms, including how much fuel you need to return the car with and any potential fees for not meeting these conditions.
