• Toll cashback: recover up to 5% of the reservation's total value for toll charges incurred during your hire period
• Premium travel medical assistance providing up to US$ 150,000 in coverage for a maximum of 5 passengers in case of a medical emergency, excluding pre-existing conditions
• No Extra Charges© guarantee: if the counter charges you for something not listed on your confirmation and not an optional add-on you accepted, Hola Car Rentals will work to remove or reimburse the charge after verification

All of this comes at no extra cost, ensuring a fully protected car hire experience and peace of mind throughout your trip in Nevada.

No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your booking in Nevada 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 Nevada 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)

No, Nevada has no toll roads. Every public highway, interstate, state route, and local road in Nevada is toll-free, so your Thrifty hire will not trigger any toll charges anywhere in the state.

Common routes such as I-15 through Las Vegas, I-80 between Reno and Carson City, US-95, and US-50 all cost GBP 0.00 in tolls. There are also no congestion charges, emissions zones, or city-centre fees anywhere in Nevada.

Because Nevada roads are toll-free, Thrifty's PlatePass toll programme is unnecessary for in-state driving. You will not need to enrol in any transponder service or worry about toll billing on your hire agreement.

Note that Nevada state parks such as Valley of Fire charge a vehicle entry fee (approximately GBP 8 per vehicle), but these are park admission fees paid at entry booths, not road tolls, and are entirely separate from your Thrifty hire costs.

Thrifty operates at Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) in Las Vegas, Nevada, with its hire facility located at 7135 Gillespie Street, near the airport perimeter.

After collecting your baggage, you will need to take the Thrifty shuttle from the terminal to the off-terminal facility at that address. Look for the marked shuttle stop outside the arrivals level and board the bus displaying the Thrifty logo. Shuttles cycle regularly between the terminal and the hire facility.

• Follow signs for ground transportation or car hire shuttles after exiting baggage claim
• Board the Thrifty-branded shuttle at the designated stop
• Bring your booking confirmation, valid driving licence, passport, and a major credit card in the main driver’s name

If you are hiring in Reno, Nevada, Thrifty also has a presence at Reno-Tahoe International Airport (RNO). Check your booking confirmation for the exact counter or shuttle instructions specific to that location.

To collect your Thrifty hire in Nevada, you must present the following physical documents at the counter:

• A valid, original driving licence in the main driver’s name
• A major credit card with the driver’s name printed on the card, used for the security deposit hold
• A passport or valid government-issued photo ID
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets (required for international visitors)

If your driving licence is not in English and does not use a Latin (Roman) alphabet, for example if it is in Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory alongside your original licence. For licences in English or other Latin-alphabet languages, an IDP is recommended but not strictly required for Thrifty hires in Nevada.

All documents must be physical originals. Digital copies shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted at the Thrifty counter in Nevada. Debit and prepaid cards are not accepted for the security deposit hold.

Yes, Tolls Cashback is included on all Hola Car Rentals bookings, including Thrifty hires in Nevada, and it applies even though Nevada itself has no toll roads.

If you drive your Thrifty hire beyond Nevada's borders into a neighbouring state with tolls, such as California, where FasTrak operates on Bay Area bridges and express lanes, you can claim back up to 5% of your total Hola Car Rentals booking value for tolls paid during the hire period.

To claim your cashback after returning the vehicle:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of vehicle return
• Include your Hola Car Rentals reservation confirmation, the signed hire agreement, and a receipt or statement showing the toll charges paid
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - HOLA followed by your confirmation number

Refunds are issued to the original payment method and typically process within 7 to 10 working days after approval. Late submissions received after 30 days are not accepted.

When you pick up your Thrifty hire in Nevada, the counter will place a temporary authorisation hold on your major credit card. This hold is not a charge but it reduces your available credit until it is released after you return the vehicle.

For standard vehicle classes at U.S. locations, typical holds range from approximately GBP 240 to GBP 320. The exact amount for your Thrifty hire in Nevada may vary depending on the vehicle class, the specific location (airport versus off-airport), and the season. Premium or speciality vehicles may carry a higher hold.

• Only a major credit card in the main driver’s name with the name printed on the card is accepted for the deposit
• Debit cards and prepaid cards are not accepted
• Bring a backup credit card in case your primary card is declined
• Notify your bank of your travel to Nevada to prevent fraud blocks on the authorisation

After you return the Thrifty vehicle, the hold is released, but your bank controls when the funds appear back in your available credit, which can take up to 15 working days.

The minimum age to hire a Thrifty car in Nevada without a young-driver surcharge is 25. Drivers aged 21 to 24 can hire from Thrifty in Nevada but will be charged a daily underage fee on top of the base hire rate.

Nevada is not one of the states (such as New York or Michigan) that legally requires hire companies to serve drivers aged 18 and over, so the standard Thrifty policy applies: drivers must be at least 21 years old, with a surcharge for those under 25.

Additional restrictions for under-25 drivers hiring from Thrifty in Nevada include:

• Most premium, full-size, luxury, convertible, minivan, and large SUV categories are restricted to drivers aged 25 and over
• Economy, compact, and intermediate vehicle classes are generally available to younger renters
• A valid driving licence and a major credit card in the renter’s name are still required regardless of age

If you are aged 21 to 24 and booking a Thrifty hire in Nevada, budget for the daily young-driver surcharge, which is charged at the counter and varies by location.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Thrifty hire in Nevada, either as part of your rate or for a fee paid at the counter.

For Thrifty hires in Nevada, the additional driver fee is GBP 10.50 per hire day plus applicable taxes, with a maximum cap of GBP 147 plus taxes. Check your booking confirmation to see whether your specific rate already includes one additional driver at no extra cost.

Requirements for adding a driver to your Thrifty hire in Nevada:

• The additional driver must be present at the Thrifty counter at pick-up
• They must present a valid driving licence and, if required, an International Driving Permit
• They must meet the minimum age requirements for Nevada hires
• Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the hire agreement

Only drivers listed on the Thrifty hire agreement in Nevada are covered by the vehicle's protections, including CDW and liability cover. Anyone who drives the vehicle without being named on the contract may void those protections entirely.

The cover included in your Thrifty hire in Nevada depends on the rate plan you selected when booking through Hola Car Rentals. It is important to review your booking confirmation carefully to understand exactly what is covered.

Common cover options for Thrifty hires in Nevada include:

• Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW): reduces your financial liability for damage to the Thrifty vehicle from a collision, theft, or vandalism, subject to any applicable excess
• Third-Party Liability (LIS/ALI/SLI): covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to others while driving the Thrifty hire in Nevada; some U.S. states require a minimum level of liability, and Nevada renters should confirm whether this is included in their rate

CDW and LDW do not cover damage to other vehicles or injuries to third parties. LIS/ALI/SLI does not cover damage to the Thrifty vehicle itself. These two coverages complement each other.

Common exclusions regardless of cover level include prohibited use such as off-road driving, driving under the influence, or allowing an unlisted driver to operate the vehicle in Nevada.

Yes, most Hola Car Rentals bookings, including Thrifty hires in Nevada, include Travel Assistance provided through Terrawind Global Protection. However, this benefit does not apply to residents of the United States or Canada.

For eligible customers driving a Thrifty hire across Nevada, the cover typically includes:

• Travel insurance with medical cover for up to 5 passengers
• Legal assistance in the event of a road accident
• Compensation for baggage lost by the airline
• Flight cancellation insurance

If you experience a medical emergency or accident while driving your Thrifty hire in Nevada, contact the assistance line immediately before incurring expenses, as some reimbursements require prior authorisation.

• Phone (24/7, toll-free): +1 888 980 9992
• WhatsApp: +1 208 910 1001
• Email: [email protected]

Have your full name, Hola Car Rentals confirmation number, current location in Nevada, and a brief description of the situation ready when you call. Always check your specific booking confirmation for the exact terms and cover limits that apply to your Thrifty hire.

Thrifty hires in Nevada follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy by default. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.

Steps to follow for your Thrifty hire in Nevada:

• At pick-up, check the fuel gauge with the Thrifty agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on the hire agreement
• Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and fuel gauge
• Refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location before dropping off the vehicle
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address

If you return the Thrifty vehicle in Nevada with less than a full tank, you may be charged for the fuel shortfall at the partner's refuelling rate, which is typically higher than the retail pump price, plus an administrative service fee.

Nevada has many fuel stations conveniently located near both Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas and Reno-Tahoe International Airport, making it straightforward to refuel before returning your Thrifty hire. If you are unsure where the nearest station is, ask the Thrifty agent at pick-up or use your navigation app.

Yes, one-way hires that start with a Thrifty pick-up in Nevada and end in a different state are generally possible, but a drop-off fee will likely apply and must be confirmed at the time of booking.

Key points to know about one-way Thrifty hires from Nevada:

• The drop-off fee is route-specific and varies by destination, vehicle class, and season
• The fee is listed under the "To pay at destination" section during the Hola Car Rentals booking process and on your confirmation
• The drop-off fee cannot be prepaid and is paid directly at the Thrifty counter
• Cross-border one-way hires, for example from Nevada into Mexico or Canada, may be restricted or require special authorisation from Thrifty

If you are planning to drive your Thrifty hire from Nevada into California or another neighbouring state without returning to Nevada, select the correct drop-off location during booking so the system can price the route accurately and display any applicable fee. Changing the return location after booking may reprice the hire and alter the drop-off fee.

Yes, Thrifty has multiple locations in Nevada beyond the Harry Reid International Airport facility in Las Vegas.

Nevada locations where Thrifty operates include:

• Las Vegas airport facility at 7135 Gillespie Street (Harry Reid International Airport, LAS)
• Neighbourhood locations in Las Vegas such as Resorts World (3000 Las Vegas Blvd S), Swenson Street (4775 University Center Dr), East Sahara (2777 Las Vegas Blvd S), West Sahara, and Craig Road near I-15
• Henderson, Nevada at Gibson Road near I-215 (151 N Gibson Rd, Suite 110)
• Reno-Tahoe International Airport (RNO) and a Reno neighbourhood location at 1995 Vassar Street, Suite B

Off-airport Thrifty locations in Nevada may offer lower base rates than the airport counter, but keep in mind that transportation to and from the location adds time. Always confirm the operating hours of your chosen Thrifty location in Nevada before booking, as hours can vary by site. Your booking confirmation will show the exact address and any relevant pick-up instructions for the Nevada location you select.

If you return your Thrifty hire in Nevada after the agreed drop-off time, a grace period of approximately 30 minutes typically applies, though this is not guaranteed and varies by location and hire agreement.

If you exceed the grace period on your Thrifty return in Nevada:

• Additional hourly or daily charges may be applied to your credit card
• A late return fee may also be added on top of the extra time charges

To avoid late return charges on your Thrifty hire in Nevada, plan your return with enough time to refuel (following the Full-to-Full fuel policy) and reach the drop-off location before your scheduled time. Both Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas and Reno-Tahoe International Airport in Nevada have fuel stations nearby.

If you know in advance that you need more time, contact Thrifty or reach out through your booking to request an extension before the original return time. Extending mid-hire is subject to vehicle availability and may reprice the hire. Do not simply return the vehicle late without notifying Thrifty, as unannounced late returns in Nevada typically result in higher charges than a pre-arranged extension.
