The Thrifty staff was very unhelpful and showed he had no intention to even guide me. The drop off procedure was also very complicated and when I asked for help, he simply told me he had otherwise customers to attend, bearing in mind that this was about 10-15 minutes from the closing time so very unlikely there will be customers picking up cars.

The equipment used were satisfactory with basic options. The car we got was basically brand new with roughly 3000 kms. Thrifty car rental agents were amazing at Dubai airport.
Like the size of the car, but experience in swapping out the car was horrible.

Car was not ready on time, I had to wait to receive it, and the staff in the office did not bother to have it brought down until AFTER I was done with the paperwork. The car was relatively clean, but they used a cleaner that left residue on the navigation screen that I could not get off. The car had 1/4 tank of gas, but the paperwork said it was full. When I brought it back, they charged me for a tank of gas because I returned it as they delivered it to me. I won't rent from Enterprise at Dubai Terminal 3 again. Ever.

They did not have the car that was originally booked. But were gracious enough to upgrade me to a higher grade vehicle. Albeit that we felt that it was more expensive than it should have been. The people were very helpful and the vehicle was in excellent condition.
One of the worst experience , very bad car ,nissan sunny and no screen to connect with phone(very important to use navigator and I don't believe there is still some car with no screen , pick up the car from terminal 3 and I took an hour to get the documents and also I asked to drop the car at terminal 2 , she said we don't have a counter at terminal 2 , you have to drop the car at terminal 3 and take a taxi to T2 , later one I realized there is a counter at terminal 2 but it's funny the open from 1pm to 5 pm anyone else come before and after this time has to go to T1 or T3

Drop off experience was a nightmare, Abel took 30 min to do the check out, he inspected the car from the bottom to the top like he was going to buy this car from me, his extremely slow pace was really frustrating when you have a flight to catch and you on the run!
