Thumbs down Avis First Changes

Just got the following email from Avis:

As we approach a new year, we’ve made two important changes to our AVIS FIRST™ program that will affect how you earn your weekend reward benefits in the year to come.

Effective January 1, 2009, the following changes will apply:

1. Avis First weekend rewards will now be earned after every fourth qualifying Rental.

2. Rentals that earn frequent travel rewards (i.e., frequent flyer miles or hotel program points) will not count toward the four qualifying Rentals required to earn your weekend rewards.


As always, we appreciate your business and look forward to seeing you soon. You can find the most up-to-date terms and conditions at avisfirst.com.
This is absolutely ridiculous. Nice way of alienating your more valuable customer segment, Avis....
