petrol. If you return it with less, you are charged for the difference.
If you return it with more, there is no refund on unused fuel.
If you would like your car to be delivered with a full tank of petrol (e.g. because you have a long journey), please advise us and it will be
arranged.You can then return the car with a full tank, or pay for the difference.

your credit card to the Thrifty employee who will meet you with your
car.

for at least 12 months before the start of the rental.
European driving licenses and other licenses showing information in the
