Cheap Thrifty Car Rentals at Key West International Airport, EYW

If you plan to share driving, check if the rental company allows a second driver and whether there are additional fees. Some companies offer free second driver options under certain conditions.

Many companies offer apps with live updates and alerts regarding your vehicle pickup.

Check the operating hours of your rental company, as some may have limited hours at airports.

Allow for possible delays at the rental desk, particularly during busy travel times.

Many rental companies require payment by credit card and may not accept debit cards. If you only have a debit card, check the rental company's payment policies in advance and look for suitable options.

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.

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.

Ask if there are extra charges for picking up at the airport versus off-site locations.
