You might have a better chance booking a full-size and inquiring about an upgrade to a Camaro. That can work out even better than you were expecting.

Also, if it doesn't work, just hold on to the reservation confirming the Camaro, but chances are you upgrading to it at the counter will work out better for you.

Thank you for the suggestion. Do you know what the upgrade fee might be to go from a full size to the Camaro SS? A full size for a week is around $430 so if they charge $50/day to upgrade that would add on another $350 plus increased taxes/surcharges which would bring it up over $800. That's much better than $900+.

Does anyone have a discount code for renting a car from AVIS in Switzerland?

I tried many codes but nothing work!!!!

Is there a discount code that works in Switzerland? I tried a few and the rate doesn't change. Oddly, the car is a couple dollars cheaper on carrentals.com than Avis's own website. Thanks.

Thank you for the code. Saved me $50 off lowest Avis I could otherwise find (through Autoslash.com-$245) and $120 off lowest Hertz ($305). ^^^

Just booked a rental in France using the Air France Flying Blue Code (F982700). Worked out to be much cheaper than any other code I had found, including the European "deals" AWD on the Avis website. It's a public code, so should be pretty safe for use.

I've been using the Deloitte AWD multiple times at both my local Avis location as well as at BOS. Each time I feel like they're going to crack down on me. Last time I called to reserve a car for the same day (web site was telling me no vehicle available) I gave her the AWD and she goes "who is this for?". I think I pronounced Deloitte wrong because she asked twice.

I have an upcoming EWR rental with National, but debating booking with Avis as well and if they give me a hard time about the AWD I'd just leave and get the National car.

Coupon for one-way rental?
 
Doing a last-minute one-way trip between Mount Laurel/Cherry Hill NJ and ORF. Leaving 1/30 at noon and dropping off 1/31 at noon.

Using an AWD code getting $79 ($91.03 with taxes) for unlimited miles (subcompact - full size). Was wondering if there were any coupon codes I could use on top of this for $$$ off or upgrades? Would consider cheaper alternatives as well.

Lockheed Corporate Discount
 
Does anyone know if they verify ID for this AWD? I see that you must use a Lockheed e-mail to get Avis preferred service.

Like every corporate ID, there is always a chance they will verify you work for the company/organization whose discount code you are using. If you can't provide proof, you can end up paying the walk-up rate which is far higher than what you can book on-line even with a crappy discount code.

I used the Lockheed AWD just last week in Tampa, with Preferred Service. No questions asked.

I've never been asked for ID for a corporate AWD, but recently a counter agent said "Oh, you work for [name of company]? I did once. What do you do?" I was able to answer, but wondered later whether this was just casual conversation, or the beginning of a test - if I had fumbled, would he have asked for ID? Didn't matter, since I was legit on that one.

Same here, but there are multiple offices for Lockheed in my city so it was pretty easy to just think of a job.

Is there any good AWD for Australia? I must have tried a hundred different AWDs and they all give about the same discount, +/- $10. Thanks.

I tried it in Auckland. Was totally busted :( Ended up costing almost $300 more than the normal nondiscounted rate I saw on their website.:td:

Thanks for posting about your experience. I think E153702 should not be used in Oceania, with problems now reported in SYD and AKL!

You can never tell. I used it without any problems in Sydney in 2013. I've also used it in Santiago (Chile) and Zurich, among other places over the years. This code seems to have had a checkered history. I signed up for it through a newspaper ad in Spain in the 80's. It may have become an employee code some time later. At any rate, I do agree that it might be best to avoid it.
