Sorry if this has been asked before (couldn't find it via search)...
So I'm new to Avis First. I got my first weekend rental but I'm not sure how it works.
Can I pick it up on a Friday and return it on a Monday or do I have to pick it up Sat and return on Sunday?
bkafrick, you sound pretty familiar with these. Do you know how it works if you're renting for an extended period (ie: Friday am through Tues am)? I can make a res online and put in the code but it doesn't price out, and sorry but I just don't trust Avis to apply it after the fact or even at the time of pickup for that matter.

I haven't had a free weekend coupon in a year, but Avis "weekends" have always started at Noon on Thursday and end at 11:59PM on Monday. And the coupons were valid for a 48 hour period during that time, so long as you kept the car overnight on Saturday (ie, it was in your possession at 11:59PM Saturday night). If you wanted the car longer than 48 hours, sometimes it wouldn't take online, but it always did when you presented the coupon at the counter and they'd take 2 days off of the final cost. Also, sometimes the coupons were blacked-out online, but the location would always take it when you pick the car up.
