Avis with Avios

Have a family trip coming up to LA & Vegas and was looking to organise a car with avios just for a couple of days.

I don't want it on the 1st couple of days but more the 4th & 5th day but it states I must pick this up from LAX despite staying in Hollywood

Is there a way of picking up the car from a different destination using avois.

No-one know if you can book a car from Avios if it is not picked up from the airport ?

I guess you will have to call to find out for sure.

What I do know is that the BA website only allows Avis bookings from airports (and I think airports BA serves).

So, maybe call and let us know.

BTW, do you get good value using Avios for Avis?

Thanks MF.

Not sure the value I get I am just using my points as there are basically useless to me.

Shorthaul European flights using RFS and some partner redemptions (CX in Asia, QF domestic J) are still good value. Probably better value than car hire or other non-flying redemptions.
