Thrifty Car Rental at Bologna Airport

Bologna airport is well equipped with all facilities required by arriving and departing passengers, and a variety of transportation options are available. Thrifty is one of the car hire companies at Bologna Airport. Travelling in a rented car is a popular way to explore the towns and cities around Bologna, and Thrifty is often chosen for their low rental rates and other unique services.

Thrifty Bologna Airport rental counters are located in the arrivals area, on the ground floor of the terminal building. Customers can collect their vehicles from Thrifty any day of the week, between 08:00 and 23:15. The actual rented cars are parking in the P2 Multi-storey parking garage nearby the terminal, on Level 1. Thrifty also offers a comprehensive website from where vehicles can be booked in advance, at www.thrifty.com. This will ensure that your ideal vehicle is ready and waiting for your arrival at the airport. It is recommended to reserve all additional items of equipment for your journey as well, as these items are subject to availability. Additional items may include a child car seat or a satellite navigation system, and have an extra rental cost per day.

On Thrifty’s website, customers will be able to view all the vehicle categories available at their Bologna Airport rental location, as well as pictures of example vehicles in each category. There is also plenty of information available about Thrifty’s rental terms and conditions, and the other unique services they offer, for example, their Wild Car program. When customers choose the Wild Car program, they will receive a Mid-size rental vehicle or larger, yet only pay a rate that is lower than for a Mid-size car. You will not know which car you will be driving, as the rental location staff will choose your vehicle when you arrive, but you are guaranteed to get great value for money. You are also guaranteed to get a vehicle that has at least five seat belts and space for at least two pieces of luggage.

Another of Thrifty’s popular programs is their Multi-Month Rental program, whereby customers can hire a vehicle for a much longer period of time. Vehicles can be hired for up to eleven months, and do not need to be returned before the agreed rental period is completed. Reservations for longer rentals are made easy as you can call a special 800#, and the rental charges will automatically be billed each month to your credit card or Thrifty billing account. A corporate account is needed for this length of rental, and can be obtained from Thrifty’s website, at www.thrifty.com.

Vehicles at Thrifty Bologna Airport are divided into various car groups, for example, Economy, Compact, Mid-size, Standard or Full-size. Economy vehicles are quite popular for their fuel efficiency and low rental rates, but families prefer the Mid-size and Standard vehicles, as they are bit larger. Economy vehicles include the Lancia Ypsilon and the Fiat Punto, while the Fiat Stilo is found in the Compact category. Cars in these categories usually seat around four passengers, but don’t have much space for luggage.

The Daewoo Nubira is an example vehicle in the Mid-size category, as well as the Fiat Stilo Wagon, which is an estate vehicle more likely to have a larger luggage capacity. Families often find these types of vehicles to be ideal, especially if they will be travelling between towns and cities on longer journeys. Full-size vehicles include the Alfa Romeo 156 and other similar vehicles. Often cars in this category have an automatic transmission, and many customers who are used to driving with automatic transmissions prefer to hire this type of vehicle.
