Good Discount
 
I just booked using: AWD C360418 and got a better rate then booking directly through Costco.

15 days in St. John's NFLD through Costco was $1,057.04
15 days in St. John's NFLD using the above AWD was $797.13

$259.91 cheaper :)

That's great, but do you have any idea where the AWD came from? Hate to state the obvious, but they can ask for ID at the rental counter. They don't always, but if they do and you can't produce it, you may be charged the walk-up rate which will likely be much higher than the AWD you found or the Costco rate. Just something to keep in mind.

Beware of Sea-Tac airport car rental taxes about $60.00.

If you pick up at a local agency that tax is not paid.

Your booking for FEB 2019 now?

You seem to miss the point of a poorly organized thread.
Old post is the ONLY organized attempt to list codes in one place which was the IDEA.

Of course it's outdated but it give the slow thinkers an example of what an ORGANIZED thread would track to ensure easy reference.

There also people posting in this thread with NOTHING to do about AVIS which should be moderated.

Are you referring to the Bombardier code above? That was actually an Avis discount code for Bombardier employees that the OP was referring to. I don't think corporate discount codes should be posted in this forum, but that is another matter. The bottom line is that it was relevant to Avis.

It's a code for use on AVIS car rentals. This is the Avis forum, so it's not the wrong place, but exactly where it should be, if it's going to be on FT.

Unfortunately, we don't all have unlimited resources to make FT as good as we'd all like. Please feel free to make an updated list and either start a new thread, or put it in here and I can make it a sticky at the top of this thread.

Ok I misunderstood AVIS code for Bombadier employees. Those are the tricks FT is famous for so I don't really find it all bad.

If jumping on error flight prices, fuel our charge YQ fare tricks, Manufacture Spending, churning CCs are allowed on FT I don't see why AVIS corporate codes can't be shared. Same level tricks.

As for the organized code list ------ I would start with my AVIS code since I sued it last week for a reservation.
AVIS CSR are terrible in identifying codes even when valid!

Hi I'm trying to rent compact car from June02 - Sept02 one-way (culver city -> LAX).
I currently get $1641.85 from costco car rental deal. Would there be a better deal or AWD available?

HIGHLY doubtful. That's ~$16/day for a 1-way!!! I don't think you'll beat that in most instances. The only option(s) to look at would be doing a round trip for the long period and making the 1-way rental very short, if that's an option with your travel plans.

If you're a AAA member, you can get it down to $1,601.50 with Hertz.

Why are most of the AWDs invalid now are there new ones??

is there a $75 off coupon on $600+ rental, that works with a Business AWD #?

DrWrong Jun 12, 2018 1:52 am

I'm booking a rental for January, and because I'm now located overseas, the system at Avis (like the one at Budget) gives me a total price that doesn't include all of the usual taxes and fees. So all I'm getting is the base rate with my "reservation" - am I right in assuming this means they're going to stick me with all the taxes and fees when I show up to pick up the car? It's very peculiar. If I claim to be a resident of USA, the rates are all different (same AWD), and the taxes are included. For example, as an overseas resident, my AWD gives me access to an Intermediate SUV for $368.05 with no taxes (pay at counter), whereas as a US resident the same AWD gives access to a Standard SUV for $319 (base) + $155.54 (taxes and fees) for a total (pay at counter) of $474.54. Does anyone have any idea what the deal is here? Is this just how they treat non-residents to a little "welcome to our airport"? Or is some unexpected generosity in store for potential visitors? I've already made a tentative reservation, but when I realized there's no tax on that, I wanted to hop on here and see if anyone has some insights.

Your final confirmation should show a breakdown of the base rate plus all taxes and fees. If it does not, then contact Avis for an email confirmation with the breakdown. You might also want to check around at alternate sites to see if you can find a better deal.

Thanks for that, this was my expectation as well. I've written to CS, so I'll update here when I've heard back from them. In the meantime, I've collected some screen grabs of the process step-by-step, and on the "Select A Car" screen, they do indeed assert that "Prices include Taxes, Fees and Surcharges" - so there's something going wrong - or just being confusing - in the system. This information bar only appears when I select a country other than USA for residency.


UPDATE: I did hear back from Customer Service within a day, and they have confirmed that the amount I'm being shown includes all taxes and fees and is the total amount I can be expected to pay for my rental. This means that, for this particular rental, it will cost me nearly $120 LESS to rent as a non-resident of the USA ($378 total) than it would cost to rent the exact same car if I were a resident ($496.23 all up). No complaints from me, but I do find it surprising.

What are country are you claiming residency in?
Which AWD code are you using?
Why does your AWD give access to SUV rates when most are upgrades to intermediate level?
AWD = AVIS WORLD WIDE DISCOUNT

The AWD is: D486600

I have no idea what it is and a Google search returned nothing.

I did not add it my account and to my knowledge nobody added it for me, I checked with my Wife and that is not the AWD her employer uses, so I am completely stumped.

Anyone know what this discount code belongs to? Brings up fab deal for me... but I can't remember why the code is in my account either?!

I used the AVIS family and friends AWD G883000 (only saves about $40 off the total), and I live in New Zealand. As I mentioned in my follow up, Avis includes all taxes and fees up front on the reservation price if you're a non-US resident. Maybe this has to do with international competition levels or some international legislation, but either way it's working out in my favor this time around.

The issue with either code is that you may be asked for proof of employment and if you can't provide it, you'd be charged the walk-up rate. Other than that, no issues.

It's true for any discount code you don't actually qualify for. It's probably worth checking for discount codes you do qualify for (Costco, USAA, Southwest Rapid Rewards members, American Express cardmembers, etc.) as the rate may not be all that much higher and then you don't have to worry about being challenged at the rental counter.

Hi All,

First time poster here. I'm trying to find a good deal going one way from New Orleans Airport to Pensacola Airport July 14 1am - July 20 2pm. Over the last few days I've tried pretty much every code in this thread. Best I could find was using AWD G883000 (avis friends and family) with coupon code MUWA071 (25off). That's giving me a pay now rate of $578 total with taxes and fees for a Tahoe or similar with unlimited mileage. Do you think this is the best rate I will find for a one way in an SUV with unlimited mileage or should I keep looking? Does anyone have any other AWD that might get me a better rate? I don't mind doing a pay now, but will be bummed if a cheaper one comes up after I've already paid.

Thanks in advance for any help.

FYI, I rented in PHL recently and they have a sign near the Preferred Desk agents that basically says, "AWDs xxx, yyy, zzz, ... require proof from their employer before the contract is printed". There are at least half a dozen AWDs listed, two of them that I've seen in this thread, so be cautious using AWDs one doesn't qualify for.

Bombardier again
 
Resurrecting this precisely because it is so useful. I am eligible for Costco and USAA discounts at Avis, but it turns out that the Bombardier AWD posted here gives me a price that is literally 45% of the Costco discounted price, even without the coupon code (no longer valid) that tcitjh posted.

Since I am renting for three weeks, it is very tempting to try my luck. Am picking up from a downtown location, not airport, if that makes any difference.

Any recent experience using this code? Other advice? Thanks!

Rontec Jul 20, 2018 2:19 pm

The AMEX code A047900 is quite good right now. Gave me a great rate for a pick up truck rental in California. Costco was second best.

Hello everyone, I am asking you for help in finding a discount code, I am from Poland and going to the US I will travel along the East Coast, I would like to rent a car in New York 07 August and return it to New Orleans 25 August ,because traveling with family I'm interested in a class car full size or premum , however, due to the loan and one-way trip the cost he is very expensive. A few months I am looking for good codes and discounts, however, all of which are on the company's website and give me a discount of up to $ 1,600.
Well, this Forum I found a few codes and their use gives a very promising effect
A972200
A442100
G417900
B449700
However, I am afraid that they may be unrecognized when I am already picking up the vehicle. are my fears justified?
