DO NOT book Thrifty unless you want to be stranded. Luckily there are several other car rental companies at the airport that is located within the airport. I booked Thrifty through Amex travels after booking our trip, when they asked if rental is needed. I figured Amex travels has the time of flight so pick up for car rental would be automatically selected accordingly. I didn't realize I had to select the time of pick up time until after the rental was confirmed.
So the night before our flight, I called Thrifty and the guy that answers sounded a bit off because I continuously had to repeat myself (pot head I'm pretty sure). I tell him that our pick up time is scheduled for 11am, but our flight doesn't get in til 9pm. He assures me that it wouldn't be a problem, just give them a call as soon as we get there and they will send a shuttle to come get us, even confirmed that they were open 24 hours.
On the day of our trip, I call Thrifty as soon as our flight lands and guess what? They don't have any reservations for us. I was like ok, but you didn't even ask for my name or confirmation number. Nope, no reservation. So I proceeded to tell him about my conversation with the pothead the night before and he tells me that he is the manager and no one told him anything about a delayed pick up so he can't help me, period. Of course I was stunned, I've never had to deal with such lack of customer service, so I just said ok thanks for nothing and hung up. I was tempted to call our flight inc. which covers just this sort of mishap, but it was getting late and my kids were tired so we just decided to try one of the rental counters at the airport.
Yay for National! Customer service was on point, and rental car was on site which means no waiting wait for shuttle. We got our rental within 5 min. and paid $5 bucks less then what we were supposed to pay at Thrifty. I highly recommend National for one, they are located on site. And secondly, they have excellent customer service. Yep, planning to give them 5 stars on Yelp. So to make a long story short, DO NOT book Thrifty unless you like dealing with @$$h0le$. read more
