We were thinking about just taking an Uber to the airport on the 4th and head to the Avis office but I was wondering what the smartest way of doing this would be considering we aren't arriving in the airport but rather getting to the airport with the sole purpose of picking up the car? Thanks for the help!
The rental lots are all off-site, why not just go directly to the Avis lot and skip the airport? I'm not aware of any requirement that you have a same day flight to rent a car, so I don't think there should be any issue.
