Are the rental car agencies open 24 hrs?

[toystorymom]

I'm wondering about both in terminal and places like Thrifty (best price so far) which require a shuttle. We have to leave Orlando on a very early flight which means we would have to return our car sometime around 5AM. I wasn't able to find any specific details on Thrifty's website.

Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks!

The large agencies are open 24 hours. Most lots also have a way for you to return the car if the counter is not open.

I would suggest calling Thrifty and asking them.

Thrifty is open 24 hours as per their website:

Normally I'd say stay by the airport the night before your flight. You save money on the hotel and it's easier BUT the airport hotels got hit pretty bad and I'm not sure what the availability and pricing will be in the near future.

Thanks! That's exactly the info I was looking for.
