One month rental in Toronto, Canada?
 
Anyone have any codes/advice on how to get the best deal for a one month rental in Toronto (roughly Dec6-Jan5)? Best I've gotten so far is $864 with B270898 (Costco). Can anyone beat that?

Thanks!

B270898 is not Costco

FYI, it is for Hon circle but shows as "weekend special" on most of the GDS

This got me about $30 off a 1 week prepaid rental in Europe - the biggest discount I was able to get after trying multiple codes. I gave the quote to a well-known car rental broker that promises to beat all competitors' prices, and they gladly gave me this price for the exact same Avis rental, plus a few additional dollars off. The nice thing is that Avis charges a $50 fee for prepaid rental cancellations (at least in this particular country; not sure about elsewhere in Europe or the world), whereas the broker charges no cancellation fee.

Can anybody comment on code U915590? Is this a public access code? I found it on slickdeals but haven't really seen anyone commenting on it.

So far I have gotten my best rates through use of this code coupled with a Costco car upgrade discount code.

Pickup - ABF (Naples Airport)
4/9 at 3:30pm

Dropoff - RSW (Southwest Intl)
4/17 at 5:00 am

Best rate I have gotten all in is $311.

Any assistance would be appreciated, especially if folks see better rates. Thanks!

bump on this code .. U915590 .. anyone know if its safe to use? Gave best rates for FLL end of December. I had option to prepay but just ended up reserving instead of doing the Prepay.

What rates were you finding? I have one my travel agent uses that hasn't been posted here, just want to see if it's comparable

Has anyone used the Bombardier code for a one-way rental and got charged for mileage? Took me off guard.

cesc Dec 12, 2016 12:28 pm

I actually saw that there was a mileage charge when I was trying to use the Bombardier code for a one way out of JFK so didnt use the code. However if you are trying to use the Bombardier code for a one way rental from a non airport location then there wont be any mileage charge.

Check the mileage field before finalizing your rental. If its blank then there will most likely be a mileage charge. I presume for Bombardier its 0.27 per mile. I specifically watch for 'Unlimited' against that field in the rental booking form.

When I try to use a new AWD code, I get this error: The rate code you entered requires an Avis World Wide Discount (AWD) number. Please go back and enter your AWD number or remove the rate code you entered.

How do I resolve this so I can just walk to my car & drive away?

I saw this yesterday and along with a couple of other things, I attribute it to bugs in the new website.

The Avis Canada (www.avis.ca) site was still on the older version and allowed me to successfully make a reservation with my AWD.

If you are on a site that gives you that message, you have to go into your account and add the AWD to your profile, and it will then let you make the reservation based on that AWDs rates. Looks like an attempt to bar use of the AWDs by people not qualified. I call later and add my personal AWD to the rez to get credit on my personal account rather than my biz account.

Thanks for the tip on avis.ca. Worked like a charm.

Can't believe the rate I got for a 2 day YUL rental with A972200.
Base rate of CAD$13/day and unlimited miles, 2 day total with taxes/fee of CAD$55.
And as PC, I always get upgraded.
Probably not a lot of demand for Montreal in January. :D

Hi, I do not have any AWD affiliation and would like to do a one way rental for 2 weeks on USA. I am coming from New Zealand and do not know if any of the previously mentioned codes would be ok for me to use. Would anyone be able to suggest any, much appreciated!!

Has anyone found an discount code better than Costco?

I have yet to find one that beats it. The other discount codes post higher %s but even costco saying 20-35% is always better IME.

The rate i found was $300 for 4 days.

When i check my reservation now, it shows full price without the awd code at $650.

What to do now? Should i call and confirm and ask about the the change in price if they tell me different from my email confirmation.

No more mini vans available around fll for the dates i am looking for.
