As of 2/12/14: We've had quite a few "Hey, come use this AWD. It's great" type of posts. When the AWD doesn't give a good discount, but is only posted to try to get renters to use the AWD of someone so the poster can earn free days from their Avis Corporate account. From here out, please put the company/trade group/etc that's associated with the AWD or we'll delete the post to keep it on-topic here.

Good luck finding a decent one-way rental code. My former employer had a base rate of ~$60 for one-way rentals that was usually the best that I could find that didn't either have a mileage charge or a crazy high daily rate. Over a week, the mileage charge might be your best option unless you can break your rental up so you have 2 rentals, with the majority of the miles being on the round-trip reservation, then adding on a 1-way rental with minimal time/mileage.

The code works all over and gives you about 50% off. D008400 with unlimited miles.
You have to show an amazon ID or an email from amazon's domain stating you are an employee. They just need a quick glance at your proof. If you do know how to show proof then dont use this code as they will deny you if you dont have simple proof that you can show on your phone. Amazon is the only company still using rentals heavily as their business was boombing. Most companies stopped all car rentals so their codes lost all their good usage based discounts.

For some time I was using an AWD from my former employer, last time I used it was last year. But I just checked again wanted to book at YYZ, it seems the AWD is either not working or the discount has been changed. I used to get around 20-30% now its only around 10%, I tried AMEX, TD Visa Aeroplan and Air Canada, they are all around 10% only. Did Avis overhaul all the AWD codes, due to the whole COVID thing?

Book the best deal you can find and then track it with AutoSlash to see if a better deal is available. You might be surprised how much we can help.
Safe travels!

On a semi-related note, anyone know to what organization AWD A170100 belongs? Awesome rate in London - around 2/3 off their AAA discount - but I have no idea where I got it and want to make sure I don't end up bait-and-switching myself upon arrival.
EDIT: Avis responded quickly via Twitter. It's Ford's AWD (my employer). Perfect.

I have Avis Preferred but would normally rent from Hertz as I am Prseidents Circle. For an upcoming rental at LHR however both Avis and Hertz are asking ridiculous amounts. I'm talking about GBP 700 (USD 800+) for a compact car for 4 days. Autoslash has come up with USD 250 using Hertz via PriceLine but when booking I notice it says "Driving License: USA". When I change this to one of my licenses (UK and Germany) the price doubles. Am I safe in booking as a US resident or should I find another deal? I have no problem with the US rate not including insurance as my Amex covers that.

If this is the wrong forum, can someone/admin move it to the right forum 🙏
Hi, I was hoping that you could help to se if there are anyway to get the price down a litte.
We're from Sweden
We fly in to LAX from LHR (BA281) august 4th, was planning on picking up the car the next day. We're in california for almost 9 weeks and we need the car for the whole trip.
So we would like to pick up august 5th and return october 6th. We're flying in & out of LAX. No problem to use an off-site, don't have to be LAX but if the prices are similar s of course is LAX easier.
We prefer AVIS since we get points there and we are prefered members.
We're looking for intermediate or standard suv
