Time and Place
The Find a location link is kind of like an advanced search for finding your pick-up location. It provides you with several options to search for your location. You can search for your location using a world map, airport codes or by using an advanced search program.
This is where you rent the car. If you know the three-letter airport/location code you can enter that information here. (i.e. DFW, DCA, YYZ). Enter a city, state/province, country (i.e. Orlando, California, Costa Rica). If you are unsure of the spelling, enter the first three letters of the city, state/province, or country name. We will search for the location and return the most likely choices. If you would like to search for your location using different methods, click the Pick-up Location link, which is like an advanced search for finding your pick-up location.
This is to ensure you get an accurate rate quote. Check here if you reside locally. Mileage limitations may be applied at the time of pick-up for renters who reside in the local area, depending on location policy.
Some Thrifty locations offer one-way rentals, which are when a customer would like to pick up a vehicle at one of our locations but return it at a different Thrifty location. Check the Return to different location checkbox, and once you provide all of your rental information and click the GET RATES button, we will display a list of places where you can return the vehicle.
