Here are my questions:
1. I generally book through a local agent that I've used before. If I have my agent make this booking for me, can I still take advantage of this offer?
2. If yes, what specifically does my agent need to do to be sure I get the United Airlines miles and the 10% discount?
Thank you!
Dear nwflyboy,
Unfortunately, we are unable to confirm if you are still able to collect you Mileage Plus points and discount if booking through a travel agent. It is depending on the rate agreed between the agent and Sixt. It may be possible but we can not confirm it without further details from you travel agent. You may want to pass my e-mail address (
[email protected]) to your travel agent, who could contact me with their IATA number and their Sixt account number.
However, in the mean time you could sign up for the Sixt express card online and then e-mail me your express card number and your United plus number. We then will be able to ensure that you discount code applies and you collect your points automatically where possible.

Alternatively, our reservation team would be more then happy to place the booking for you and answer any questions, which you may have. Their contact number is +1 888 7498 227.
Best Regards
