Thrifty Budapest Airport Car Rental Discounts
Almost all major automobile rental companies offer great Thrifty Budapest airport car rental discounts. You can locate their rental counters inside terminals 2B and 2A. The best way to get a good bargain is book your rental car ahead of time and just pick it up at the counter at the airport. Sometimes the counter attendants there can give you a discount if you ask for it upfront. Also, you should ask if there are other discounts that you can receive such as a group discount or one off purchase.
Another great deal, if you're traveling with a small child, is to hire a car that offers a child seat. Many cars that offer child seats also offer a first-come-first-served policy. So, if you need to pick up your child from the airport, all you have to do is get a hold of them, remove your child from the seat and surrender the car seat to the customer service agent. Then, tell the customer service agent about your child and the agency will assign a car that has a suitable child seat inside. If your child remains in the vehicle till the end of the trip, then you'll be entitled to an additional bonus, namely a free return flight!
A Thrifty Budapest car hire discount may include payment of a reduced excess fee, which is the standard excess fee in Hungary. The rate of the excess fee is different for each car hire company. However, a representative from the company will help you understand the exact amount of the excess fee that you need to pay. If you still decide not to pay the excess fee, then you will be charged with a late payment fee. However, all the companies in Budapest offer discounts on car rentals so you shouldn't have any problem with paying the excess fee.
