Well it's not 91 cents - it's $9.1 (good that I'm not renting for 2 months or more). I don't need the miles anyway - especially when I have to pay to get them.

Also why should Avis only charge for some airlines? And why do they have some that are 75 cents but some are $1? Somehow I don't know why my charge ended up being 9.1 instead of 7.5 - even if you put 11% tax on.

I did ask Avis about this but I haven't got a reply yet.

I think they are just using these small charges + forced DCC to increase their revenue without putting their prices up.
