1. No Chinese service; 2. The Black customer service agent naggingly recommended a $100+ one-time toll pass. This is a rip-off. Highways in the US are not tolled; when I took a bus from Los Angeles to San Francisco a few years back, I only paid $2.5. I rented a car to return to Los Angeles and didn't pay any tolls. This $105 card is non-refundable if not fully used, don't fall for it! 3. The airport shuttle bus service is terrible! It took me 4 minutes to return the car, and when I went out with the ticket to the airport shuttle, the first dedicated shuttle driver was rude and didn't let us board, asking us to wait for the next one. We waited almost an hour for a shuttle, which only allowed five people to board, and we had to squeeze on as our flight was about to take off. During the wait, we saw the neighboring rental company had 3-4 minute shuttle intervals, with over a dozen shuttles passing, while we had none.
I have rented from Thrifty several times at this location, but this was the most disappointing experience. After a late-night flight, the queue was long, and the Indian staff member aggressively upsold extras and insisted we pay for an upgrade. In the end, the car we received had a broken air conditioner.
They claimed there was a smoke smell in the car during return and wanted to charge me 400. They also promoted various insurance options at pickup. Do not book the cheapest option, go for the second tier instead.
