DTW hours?
Booked a Sunday night 11:30pm pickup with Thrifty in a couple weeks but I can't find anything anywhere - on their website, Google, or DTW phone - to confirm if they're even open or not at that late hour.
Most of the majors are open 24/7 at DTW, but Thrifty has me concerned. Anybody??

If you click the "Locations" tab on thrifty.com, then search for their DTW location, you will be presented with this information:
DETROIT AIRPORT, MI, USA (DTW)
29111 WICK ROAD
DETROIT METRO AIRPORT
DETROIT, MI UNITED STATES 48242
(734) 946-7830
Call the phone number and ask.

Yes, as I indicated, I tried calling... several times, only to go to manager's VM. Stellar communications system they have. I wouldn't waste FTer time if I didn't already exhaust other options.

I hit option 1, spoke to a person and they told me that the DTW location closes at 1 AM. They reopen at 5 AM.
The call took 2 minutes and 39 seconds, according to my phone's timer. (The secret to calling Thrifty is to know that they will only talk to you if they think you are going to give them business.... so always pick the "to make a reservation" option when calling one of their numbers.)
