Useful Traveller Tips for Renting a Car from THRIFTY at Frankfurt Airport

Plan Ahead

Before setting off, familiarise yourself with the rules and regulations of driving in Germany. This includes understanding the local speed limits, parking regulations, and any toll roads on your planned route.

Check Your Vehicle

Upon collecting your rental car, take a few minutes to familiarise yourself with the vehicle. Check the car for any existing damages and ensure they are recorded by the rental company to avoid any discrepancies later.

Fuel Policy

Ensure you understand THRIFTY's fuel policy. Typically, you'll need to return the car with the same amount of fuel as when you collected it. It's worth locating the nearest petrol station to the airport ahead of time.

Return Time

Make a note of the car return time to avoid any additional charges. Traffic around Frankfurt can be busy, especially during peak times, so allow yourself plenty of time to return the vehicle.
