Cross Border

Conditional:

Depending on which countries to bring the rental cars to, policies differ:
Mexico, Canada

A vehicle can be driven across the Canadian border at any time, no matter what location it was rented from. It is recommended to have PERS coverage when using vehicle in cross border rentals for the US and Canada. The renter must have a valid driver's license and rental record to cross the border into Canada. Canadian law does require that everyone entering the country have a passport, so everyone in the vehicle must have the proper identification. If a renter (including a Canadian resident) is driving a U.S. rented (and licensed in the U.S.) vehicle to Canada, it can only be driven across the border for up to 30 days unless an extension is requested from Customs at the time of entry.

Everything was great, however it would have been good to know even with renting with a credit card I still have to put a $200 deposit down day of rental .

There were hidden insurance fees; additional insurance was added when I picked up the car. Not sure if this is required by Georgia. Also, the Ford I wanted was locked, so I could only choose from Japanese models.

The flight was delayed, but with the help of customer service, we were able to pick up the car smoothly. It's best to estimate your time accurately to avoid being late.

Thrifty provided a clean vehicle. The process was very easy and they accepted my QEEQ voucher with zero issues. I did purchase third party liability at the counter but had purchased all other insurance via QEEQ. There was no issue with acceptance of the insurance. Thrifty also only charged a $200 (two hundred) deposit. The return process was a breeze. I just parked the vehicle, grabbed my items, left the key in the cup holder, and walked away. It was all very fast.

Pickup and return were both easy. They upgraded me to a city SUV, which was even better. The vehicle was in great condition and almost new. Having this car made my travel plans in the U.S. more convenient and helped me reach my destinations quickly.

Everything was average. Since I arrived late, there was no need to wait in line to complete the process. However, there was a bit of an error. The designated parking spot didn't match the license plate of the car, which caused some delay.
