plus of course, the usual upgrades & a Cent discount.
I think Avis has double upgrades and a discount on rates.
True. I did not go through a comprehensive list of benefits. One thing about the discounts: I have my own discount codes (for both Hertz and Avis) that are much better than the Cent. discount. However, with Hertz I can't use that code, because you must use the Cent. CDP to get all of the Cent. benefits. With Avis, you just become a member of their President's club, so you can use any discount code you want. There are definitely pros and cons for both.
