Rented a transit van or similar passenger van, all they had was a minivan. Said the issue was on Kayak’s side, not there’s. I could rent a second vehicle to fit my party at current prices. Walked away with an eight passenger minivan for twelve people.Reviewed 12 Mar 2026

Kayak advertised a 5 series bmw electric . I drove over 100 km to the airport location for this specific vehicle . When I arrived thrifty informed me that they do not carry the bmw 5 and that kayak wrongly advertised that car.Reviewed 9 Mar 2026

Long lines at mco with only 2 agents trying to sell u everything under the sun. Drop off was strange. U drop it off at mco and they only indpect it when u are are gone and send u an email 24 hrs after saying it was no damage. What if they said there was damage ? How can u dispute it ? Your 1000 miles awayReviewed 8 Mar 2026

The vehicle was Okay. This office did not have my ready. It was supposed to be ready at noon. I arrived about 20 minutes late. I waited till 1:30 to get the car. It was supposedly being cleaned, which was funny, because upon opening the glove box, their were open snack bags in there. The return was great, because I was able to return it to a different location which went very smooth,Reviewed 3 Mar 2026

When we arrived they told us they didn't have the size vehicle we had reserved and confirmed. We had to cancel the reservation and find a new company which didn't have what we needed, ended up driving a jump 15 passenger van instead of a mini van and had to pay more money.Reviewed 27 Feb 2026
