Thrifty Car Rental at Phoenix Airport

Customers looking for the Thrifty car hire desk won’t find it in the arrivals zones at Phoenix Sky Harbour Airport. A separate Rental Car Center, where several well known car hire providers are located, offers customers a great choice of vehicles and rates.

The Rental Car Center is situated at 1805 East Sky Harbor Circle South, between 16th Street and 24th Street, just south of Buckeye Road. The free PHX airport shuttle bus, which operates at 5 to 10 minute intervals, picks up passengers from the curb outside the baggage claim levels at each terminal and takes them to the Rental Car Center.

A central desk enables customers to make reservations on tel +1 602 683 3741, if they have arrived without an advance car reservation. The car rental information desk is open from Mondays to Fridays from 8.30 am to 5.00 pm.

Like the other car rental companies, Thrifty is stationed in the Rental Car Centre. Customers should not rely on walk-in car hire, as the demand is very high and supply is therefore limited. Thrifty car rental can be contacted in advance at:
