This makes it an interesting opportunity to gain some benefits - points/miles/statuses - derived from this rental. I would appreciate your experience advice on how to do so!

I'm working on my status with UA, so I would prefer crediting any miles there. I don't mind splitting the rental periods with 2 or even 3 companies if that can help maximizing benefits.
Current rental companies statuses: Hertz Five Star, National Executive
Current CC: Amex - SPG, Plat, Chase - Sapphire, United Explorer

Thanks in advance fr any creative ideas!
you aren't doing this 5 years ago or so, I still get goose bumps on some of the incredible rental car promotions, which if you were crazy, you could really score... now it's pretty boring, can't say any of the promo's have motivated me to wanta get crazy... so I'd lower your expectations.

my suggestion is to check http://www.frequentflyerbonuses.com/ is a good source of current promo's on rental cars and everything else... an updated newsletter is sent out every week or 2...
