Me gustó que fue muy rápida y sencilla la entrega, para mejorar sería la inclusión de la calculadora con el valor del auto con el valor mínimo incluido el seguro obligatorio contra terceros para no tener que llegar a revisar el tema y que salgan valores no estimados

It was unclear where specifically to drop off the car. The locks in the car need lubricant. We almost weren’t able to get into our locked car.

The staff were friendly and helpful. I just wish the process was faster and more info could be provided up front so we didn't have to wait so long to get everything processed (took 1 hour from start to finish). Drop off was very easy and fast.
I was astonished with how much the insurance that they require you to have is. It was just about more than the actual rental. This is something that should be told to us when we rent. Knowing beforehand would be very very helpful

Mediocre|Jan 2023
The car we reserved was not available when we arrived. The only vehicle that could accommodate our passengers and luggage was a truck. The agent charged us the full price for the truck which was considerably more expensive. He said that there was fine print on the webpage explaining that this may happen and we were responsible for the difference in price. Also, the agent didn’t show up for work on the day we returned the car so it took over an hour to find someone who could help us.

They had a policy that indicated that they would run my credit score and I was ask to sign it. I scratch the line out as well as another line indicating that I promise to return the tank full. If the guy at the desk indicate something else then have it in the policy, it is confusing. Also the representative at the desk didn't do a good job of explaining to me what will be charge to my card. I discovered that it was almost $500 when he first indicated $285. I don't think I would ever go with Thrifty or any associates of theirs again.

The vehicle that I had reserved and paid for which was more expensive was not available when I arrived. Then I was given a much smaller vehicle and told to exchange the vehicle for the right one at a different location. I went to the other location and they also didn’t have any wasting my entire day waiting and waiting. This was the must awful, unprofessional and unorganized experience I ever had with any rental company ever. They had no empathy, nor compensated me for literally my entire day wasted while I was on vacation. Panama Thrifty by NO Means operates in the same standards as other countries.

Ellos no tenían carros para cubrir la reserva y debí rentar en otro sitio. Quiero la devolución de mi dinero
The reservation was supposed to be a pick up from airport but the car was not there. I had to take taxi to the city and pick it up from another location. Staff at airport was rude. The vehicle had a broken trunk latch, I had to crawl through the back seats to open it from inside everytime, which was a pain in the a** with all the luggage.
All ok apart from pricing. Booked one way ride and I was charged extra 200$ just for this. No indication during booking that the price can be so high. I've rented many times with different companies around the globe and always booking price was the one you pay. Minor adjustments such as insurance ok but not 5x more. Knowing this before booking would make me book Avis which had better drop-off location.

They really push you to get all insurance through them. Even tho we had insurance with our credit card, their deposit went from $1,000.00 to $100.00 if we insured with the car rental company and they said we would not get our deposit back for 2-3 weeks.
