Frequently asked questions

How do I get the best rates on a Reykjavik Thrifty rental car?

CarRentals.com strives to get you the best price, whether you reserve your vehicle. However, getting ahead of time can help you save even more. Make sure to read the mileage policy and keeping it to one driver will reduce your expense.

Do I need to bring anything special when I pick up my rental car in Reykjavik?

You'll need to present credit card, as well as your driver's license.

What's Reykjavik's minimum age to rent a car?

Thrifty's minimum age to rent a car in Reykjavik is 21. Some rentals, especially higher category vehicles (luxury, SUVs, etc.), may have an added fee if you are under 25. Take time to read through Thrifty's policies to know if there is an additional cost for you.

Is there a particular vehicle I should get for my trip to Reykjavik?

That depends on your needs and what you'll be doing when you visit Reykjavik. Compact or economy automobiles are ideal for short drives and are easier to park. If you are traveling with colleagues or family, then a mid-size vehicle or SUV will have enough room for all of you and be a more comfortable ride. Those looking for a little luxury on their vacation can choose a higher-end vehicle like an Audi A4 or Cadillac XTS or similar.

Do I need insurance when I rent a car in Iceland?

You are required to have insurance before you rent a car in Iceland. Although many of the major card issuers, like MasterCard or Discover, provide some coverage, there are usually restrictions. For example, they may not cover your rental car if you book a luxury or larger vehicle. Make sure to check credit card company's policy before you decide. Otherwise, as a United States citizen, you can book Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com at checkout.

Do I need to pay a deposit when I book my Thrifty car rental?

Thrifty does require a deposit when you reserve your rental car. Thrifty will block the deposit on your credit once you reserve your vehicle for your trip to Reykjavik. Please be aware that the deposit will vary greatly based on the model and make of the car.

Do I have to return my Thrifty rental with a full tank?

We recommend a full tank policy. You pick up your Thrifty rental with full tank, and you should bring it back it filled up. For a cheaper rate, it is best to fill up your tank before you return the car to Thrifty.

Should I get unlimited miles when I drive in Reykjavik?

Reykjavik certainly has its charms, but you may want to hit the road after you've checked off all the activities here.

Can I get a one-way rental from Thrifty?
