Can the 'overseas' credit card upgrade coupon be combined with NSW's rate? I was browsing the forum, and I came across this post: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=518214 that surposely give the Avis Preferred Select Upgrade, can all these be combined to get the best deal possible? This will be my 1st rental with Avis :) thank you btw, I am from Singapore holding a Singapore driving license. Should be not problem with id as you could say that you are coming over to work for the Australian Musuem on short term assignment and are on a field trip in Victoria. You will not get a lower rate in Australia using the AWD i provided. The preferred select code did not work for me in Australia. Best value group is full size. |

Avis is a little higher than that. Still trying to find a good discount code but so far nothing works. |

Hi, i will be renting a 4WD from Avis in May in Cairns-region. You guess I can use this rate using a European Drivers Licence and my Avis Preferred Card? The rate looks a lot better with the AWD you mentioned. |

L282800 Discount code
This is supposed to be a United employees discount. Has anyone who is NOT a UA employee used it recently? Did they ask for an employee id?

Thank you Susie |
D454000
I did a search and did not find this code, but D454000 is giving me an awesome deal in Italy, about 35% off.
However, I do not know the basis of the code or if ID is required. Anyone ever used this? Thanks. |
I used A541254 - - Anyone else?
I tired the code A541254 and the only price from Avis for St. Kitts that changed was the 4x4 - which happened to be the only one I wanted.
Should I also make a second reservation under my name (the previous is my boyfriends) just in case? Or just make a second reservation undre his name just in case? It is a small island - but I am not sure if they will make us show them anything. Thank you,

How did you manage to get 35% off with d454000?
I tried that code for italy and the price was the same (I'm in the uk) However as noted earlier d005927 works very well and if you prepay on the avis.co.uk site then I don't see how they can ask for any proof of any kind do you? |
Need an avis retal
I am going to Grand Forks ND in 2 weeks and need a good deal on a SUV. I tried A282800 and it stopped working. Any ideas on another code I can use without any problems. Thanks
-jim ps this is my first post here. great site! |
Code V8707095
Anybosy knows what type of discount can we get with this number??
I came with my avis prefered select card. |
D005927 -- amazing rate, info anyone?
This knocked off around 25-30% off my last quote for a Europe rental. Does anyone know what the affiliation of this code is? I'm assuming it's corporate -- do I need to show I.D.?
|
No idea of the affiliation of this code but did you actually use it for your booking, I'm assuming you did so did they ask for id? You can always say you forgot to bring id with you I suppose...

L093590 still giving very good domestic rates.
L093590 has been giving even better rates than usual lately. I'm wondering if the company negotiated lower rates since the 1st of the year.
L093590 has been my favorite AWD for domestic rentals. Consistantly low rate and never an I.D. hassle. Also has a $3k maximum liability cap on any damage. |
Compact rates in Australia
Been checking rates for a week in mid April.
Bottom line: 380 AUD base rate and unusable AWDs, e.g., L282800. 363 AUD D454000, A074800. 346 AUD P682400. 312 AUD D005927. Several, like P768700 (a govt. rate?) do not include LDW. |

Anyone? I think not having liability is a problem since your U.S. car insurance company doesn't act as primary insurance once you drive outside the country. That would mean you're driving without insurance in AUS and I think our VISA cards only offer Collision -- CDW. This is good to know -- if the savings is coming from exlcusions of insurance coverage that we need to purchase back... |
I just got off the phone with VISA benefits -- the agent told me that Liability is something we need to purchase separately from AVIS if we're renting internationally. In the VISA benefits package it says to decline CDW/LDW but she said the LDW doesn't stand for liability, it stands for Loss Damage Waiver. She said that the words Collision and Loss are used interchangeably and to not confuse Loss with Liability which is separate.
So, i guess I need to contact AVIS since my quote also says that Liability was "declined"... |
No insurance?
So I just talked to my insurance guy and he said that no company except USAA for the military provides liability insurance while driving outside the US or Canada. His understanding is that platinum cards provide no liability insurance either.
So it seems that every time I've rented a car internationally in the last 10 years I've been driving without insurance. Now I'm looking at the Avis site and I don't even see any liability insurance offered? Anyone know what the deal is? |
...So it seems that every time I've rented a car internationally in the last 10 years I've been driving without insurance... I think (but don't know) that may be the case in other EU countries. |
