How many of you received a free Hawaii car rental award last week from Thrifty only to have it pulled vancouver hotels the next day? It happened to us at Beat of Hawaii. We ve been one of their Blue Chip Rewards members for a number of years but haven t tracked our rental days. When the reward came for a free day anywhere it left a positive impression and we thought about using Thrifty again on an upcoming mainland or inter-island trip. The honeymoon ended the next day with a notice cancelling the offer.
This morning you received an email from us offering you a coupon for a free rental day through Blue Chip Rewards. Unfortunately, this offer is not valid. You will not be able to book this offer online and you will not be receiving a coupon in the mail. Please disregard the email you received. We re very sorry for any confusion our eagerness may have caused.

Quite suddenly, I d been transformed and was definitely not thinking Thrifty for my next car rental. It just seems like it should have been handled differently. And now, all things being equal, I ll probably be avoiding Thrifty et al. when possible. Aloha, Thrifty!
Glad Beat of Hawaii broke this story. Now it is all over the net. What we have here friends is a case of travel related companies vancouver hotels getting larger. Should you choose to walk past the Thrifty counter, you ll have to walk past Dollar and Hertz too, because they re all one big company.
If you have discount codes, say from Island Air, AAA, AARP, or another source, try pricing the car with and without those codes. Also know that changing the date, or even time of day you pick up a car can affect your rate. I changed my arrival date for a ten day trip last summer when Thrifty s rez system gave me an $89/week rate on day, and hundreds more for a pick up the next day.

I ve had problems with all of the budget rental companies, and even the big ones like Hertz and Alamo! As such, for the last 15 years I have been exclusively using AVIS. I have yet to be made the fool by renting from AVIS. Of course, I only vacation in the Hawaiian islands and I am quite familiar with the island offerings!
I got the same emails. I used Thrifty last time we were in Oahu a few mos ago and it was fine, but that sanfu really turned me off. Time to use discounthawaii for all future trips or Costco rental vancouver hotels car service if you have a membership!
