Will I face unexpected charges at the Thrifty counter in Hebron when I book through Hola Car Rentals?
No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your booking in Hebron are clearly shown at the time of reservation and in your confirmation email, so you know exactly what you are paying before you arrive at the counter.
On top of that, every Hola Car Rentals booking includes the No Extra Charges© guarantee. This is a pricing guarantee (not insurance) that protects you if the counter in Hebron charges you for something that was not listed on your confirmation and was not an optional add-on you accepted. If that happens, Hola Car Rentals will work with the hire partner to remove or reimburse the charge after verification.
The only costs outside this guarantee are:
- Optional add-ons you choose at the counter (GPS, child seats, prepaid fuel)
- Usage-based charges (tolls, fuel shortfall, traffic fines)
Where is the Thrifty counter at CVG Airport in Hebron?
The Thrifty counter in Hebron is located inside the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) terminal at 3057 Terminal Dr, Hebron, KY 41048. The Rental Car Centre is situated near Baggage Claim and is fully walkable from the arrivals area, so no shuttle or train is required.
After collecting your luggage, follow the overhead Ground Transport West signage inside the terminal. The Rental Car Centre is on the same level, making it one of the more convenient airport pick-up experiences. Allow extra time for counter queues during busy arrival periods and for completing your hire paperwork before driving away.
Thrifty also has an off-airport location on Loomis Rd in Hebron, but if you are arriving by air at CVG, the in-terminal counter at 3057 Terminal Dr is the most direct option.
What are the Thrifty counter hours at CVG Airport in Hebron?
The Thrifty off-airport location on Loomis Rd in Hebron operates on the following schedule: Monday to Friday 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM, Saturday 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and Sunday 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Hours can vary by location and may change on public holidays, so it is always a good idea to confirm the exact hours for your specific Thrifty pick-up point in Hebron before you travel. If your flight arrives outside of counter hours, plan accordingly, as after-hours pick-up arrangements are not confirmed for all Thrifty locations at CVG.
If your flight is delayed by less than 24 hours from your original pick-up time, Thrifty will generally hold your reservation. For delays beyond 24 hours, contact support as soon as possible to avoid losing your booking.
Are there toll roads near Hebron that I should know about for my Thrifty hire?
Yes, toll roads are relevant when driving a Thrifty hire from Hebron, particularly if you travel towards Louisville or cross into Southern Indiana.
The primary toll system in the region is RiverLink, which operates on the bridges connecting Louisville and Southern Indiana, including the John F. Kennedy Memorial Bridge, the Abraham Lincoln Bridge, and the Lewis and Clark Bridge. Kentucky toll roads are entirely cashless, meaning there are no toll booths and no option to pay with cash. Tolls are collected electronically via licence plate photography.
Typical toll rates for a standard passenger car are approximately:
- US$2.68 with a transponder
- US$4.02 with a prepaid account
- US$5.36 with no account (invoice rate)
Your Thrifty vehicle in Hebron will include an electronic toll device. At the counter you can enrol in a pay-per-use programme, which typically charges a daily convenience fee of around US$4.95 (only on days you use a toll road, with a cap per rental period) plus the actual toll at the applicable rate. Alternatively, you may use your own personally owned transponder if it covers the RiverLink network, or use the NextPass app by registering the vehicle's licence plate.
Toll charges are typically billed to your card on file within 4 to 6 weeks after the rental ends.
Can I get Tolls Cashback on my Thrifty hire in Hebron?
Yes, all bookings made through Hola Car Rentals include Tolls Cashback, which means you can get up to 5% of your total booking value back for tolls paid during your Thrifty hire in Hebron.
This is especially useful if you drive towards Louisville and use the RiverLink bridges or other cashless toll roads in the region, as those charges can add up over a multi-day hire.
To claim your cashback after returning your Thrifty vehicle in Hebron:
- Email [email protected] within 30 days of returning the vehicle
- Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - Reservation [Your Confirmation Number]
- Attach your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation, the signed hire agreement, and a receipt or statement showing the toll charges paid
The refund is issued to the same payment method used for your original booking and typically processes within 7 to 10 working days after approval. Claims submitted after 30 days will not be accepted. Note that Tolls Cashback does not mean tolls are included in your rate; you still pay tolls normally and claim reimbursement afterwards.
What documents do I need to pick up my Thrifty hire in Hebron?
When collecting your Thrifty hire in Hebron, you must present the following physical documents at the counter:
- A valid, original driving licence (not a digital copy)
- A major credit card in the main driver’s name, with the driver’s name printed on the physical card, for the security deposit authorisation hold
- A passport or valid government-issued photo ID
- Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
- Round-trip flight or cruise tickets if you are visiting from abroad
If your driver’s licence is not in English and does not use a Latin (Roman) alphabet, such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory alongside your original licence. For licences in English or using a Latin alphabet, an IDP is recommended but not strictly required at most Thrifty locations in Hebron.
All documents must be physical originals. Digital versions shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted at the Thrifty counter. Debit cards and prepaid cards are not accepted for the security deposit authorisation hold.
Is a credit card required to pick up a Thrifty car in Hebron?
Yes, a major credit card is required to pick up your Thrifty hire in Hebron. The card must be in the main driver’s name, with the driver’s name physically printed on the card, and must have sufficient available credit to cover the security deposit authorisation hold.
For standard vehicles hired in the United Kingdom, the typical security hold is approximately GBP 300 to GBP 400, though the exact amount is set by Thrifty at the counter and may vary by vehicle class or hire duration. This hold is a temporary authorisation, not a charge, and is released after you return the vehicle. Your bank controls how quickly the hold disappears from your available balance, which can take up to 15 working days.
Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual or single-use card numbers are not accepted for the deposit at the Thrifty counter in Hebron. Even if you prepaid your booking online, you must still present a physical credit card at collection. Bringing a backup credit card is always a good precaution in case your primary card is declined.
Can I rent a Thrifty car in Hebron if I am under 25?
Yes, Thrifty in Hebron does allow hires for drivers between 21 and 24 years old, but a young-driver surcharge (also called an underage fee) will apply. The standard minimum age to hire without a surcharge in the United Kingdom is 25.
For Thrifty, the young-driver fee is GBP 13.50 per hire day plus applicable taxes, with a maximum charge of GBP 189 plus taxes for the hire period. This fee is paid at the counter in Hebron and is not included in your prepaid rate.
Drivers under 25 are also restricted from hiring certain vehicle classes at the Thrifty location in Hebron. Categories such as Full Size, SUV, Minivan, Luxury, Premium, and Convertible are typically reserved for drivers aged 25 and over. Economy, Compact, and Intermediate vehicles are generally available to younger drivers.
All standard requirements still apply regardless of age: a valid driving licence, a major credit card in the main driver’s name for the deposit, and all required documents at collection.
How does the fuel policy work for Thrifty hires in Hebron?
Thrifty hires in Hebron follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy. You will receive the vehicle with a full tank and are expected to return it with a full tank to avoid additional charges.
At collection, check the fuel gauge with the Thrifty agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on your hire agreement. Take a photo of the dashboard showing both the odometer and the fuel gauge before leaving the lot.
Before returning your Thrifty vehicle in Hebron, refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location so the gauge does not drop below full during the drive back. Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address as proof in case of any dispute.
If you return the vehicle with less than a full tank, Thrifty may charge you for the fuel shortfall at their own refuelling rate, which is typically higher than the pump price, plus an administrative service fee. To avoid this, always refuel just before returning the car to the CVG location in Hebron.
What travel assistance is included with my Thrifty booking in Hebron?
Most bookings made through Hola Car Rentals include travel assistance provided by Terrawind Global Protection, which can be valuable if something unexpected happens during your Thrifty hire in Hebron or whilst travelling in the surrounding region.
Core benefits typically include:
- Travel and medical cover for up to 5 passengers
- Legal assistance in the event of a road accident
- Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
- Flight cancellation insurance
This cover is designed for situations such as a medical emergency or a breakdown on a motorway near Hebron where you need legal or medical support. To activate assistance, call the 24/7 helpline at +1 888 980 9992 or contact via WhatsApp at +1 208 910 1001, and provide your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number.
Important: this travel assistance benefit does not apply to residents of the United States or Canada. It is intended for international visitors hiring a Thrifty vehicle in Hebron. It also does not cover damage to the hire car itself (that is handled by CDW/LDW) or third-party liability (covered by LIS/SLI). Always check your booking confirmation for the exact terms and coverage limits that apply to your reservation.
How do I add an additional driver to my Thrifty hire in Hebron?
Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Thrifty hire in Hebron, but the additional driver must be physically present at the counter at the time of collection with their own valid driving licence.
Whether the additional driver fee is included in your rate depends on the specific booking. Check your confirmation for the line that reads "Additional driver free of charge." If it is not included, Thrifty charges GBP 13.50 per hire day plus taxes for each additional driver, with a maximum of GBP 189 plus taxes per hire period.
Key requirements for adding a driver at the Thrifty counter in Hebron:
- The additional driver must be present at collection and sign the hire agreement
- They must present a valid driving licence and any required ID
- They must meet the minimum age requirements (note that for Thrifty, additional drivers should generally be at least 25 years old)
- If their licence uses a non-Latin alphabet, an IDP is also required
Only drivers listed on the hire agreement are covered by the vehicle's protections. Anyone who drives the Thrifty car in Hebron without being named on the contract may void your cover.
Can I pick up a Thrifty car in Hebron and return it to a different city?
Yes, one-way hires are possible with Thrifty in Hebron, but a drop-off fee may apply depending on your return location, the distance involved, and the vehicle class you select.
When booking, the drop-off fee for your specific route will be shown on the rate details page under the "To pay at destination" section. This fee is not prepaid and must be paid at the Thrifty counter in Hebron or at the return location. It is separate from fuel, tolls, and taxes.
Common patterns to bear in mind:
- Returning to another location within the same city or metropolitan area often carries no drop-off fee
- Returning to a different city or region typically does incur a one-way fee
- Cross-border returns (for example, from Hebron to Canada) may be restricted or carry higher fees
If you need to change your return location after booking your Thrifty hire in Hebron, contact support as soon as possible, as mid-hire route changes must be approved by the partner and may reprice the reservation.
What insurance coverage is included in my Thrifty hire in Hebron?
The insurance and protection options included in your Thrifty hire in Hebron depend on the rate plan you selected when booking. It is important to review your confirmation carefully before arriving at the counter.
The main coverages to understand are:
- Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW): reduces your financial liability for damage to the Thrifty vehicle itself from a collision, theft, or vandalism. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation states zero deductible. This does not cover damage to other vehicles or persons.
- Third-Party Liability (LIS/SLI/ALI): covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to others whilst driving. In some UK states, a minimum level of liability is included by law, but not all states require this. Hola Car Rentals strongly recommends adding supplementary liability cover for hires in Hebron.
CDW/LDW does not cover tyres, the undercarriage, the roof, or personal belongings. Always check the full terms in your hire agreement at the Thrifty counter in Hebron and confirm which coverages are active before driving away.
What happens if I return my Thrifty car in Hebron later than scheduled?
If you return your Thrifty hire in Hebron after the agreed drop-off time, a grace period of approximately 30 minutes typically applies, though this is not guaranteed at every location. If you exceed the grace period, Thrifty may charge you for additional hours or an extra hire day, plus a potential late return fee.
To avoid unexpected charges when returning your Thrifty vehicle in Hebron:
- Plan to arrive at the return location with enough time to refuel nearby before dropping off the car
- Account for any traffic between your last stop and the CVG return area in Hebron
- If you know you will be late, contact Thrifty directly as early as possible to discuss your options
If you need more time and wish to extend your hire, it is better to request an extension before the original return time rather than simply returning late. Extensions are subject to vehicle availability and may reprice your hire. Contact support or the Thrifty location in Hebron directly to arrange this.
