bummer, 99% of my rentals are 2 or less days. Thanks for posting!

Feel you

I have a 3-day Avis rental coming up in less than a week! Thanks!

Does anyone know what happens in this scenario:

I rent at 9pm on Monday, and return at Noon on Thursday. That's not three full days, but it's over 2 days...it's essentially 2.5 days. Does that still count as a three day rental since I'll be charged for three days?

Also, is there no way to enter your DM# into your Avis online profile or when you book it?

Thanks!

As far as i know it is as long as you pay for 3 days.
No you have to give it by the desk, or call it in if you don't want to have the hassle.

I can confirm the miles will post even if you don't have the car for a full 3 days. This is because you will still be paying a 3 day rate.

AWD: X505639

Coupon Code: MUAA044

I have to get a car tmw after wrecking my other one into the side of the a car turning left in front of me (and then slamming into a wall after that). It will eventually be on the other driver's ins, so miles are more important than cost, although I am loving what I am reading about getting a bigger car for super cheap, under $25 a day, less than a compact, so my ins will cover if anything goes awry.

SO, does anyone know the rules of this deal. I went to the link and it is no mas. How many times can I do this? I am thinking about switching compainies and getting as many deals as I can considering I will have a rental for awhile. My ins company will let me rent for up to 24 days, so that must be around the time it takes to get a car repaired or find a new one. Not sure how long it will take me ...

I said I would post in response to a convo I got last night.
I called and the rates literally went up this am. (I have been very unlucky lately ) All in all, for Avis, which my ins, State Farm, which pays in the interim before the other person's ins pays, does not have a direct deal with Avis in this area, so he was looking up what he could do using a code or something from another area that does have deal with state farm, or something ... Anyway, using my AAA number, I can get a $25.40 rate for a 7-day rental for a compact, which they may not have in stock when I get there, hopefully, so I can get upgraded. The phone was ringing off the hook while I was talking to the guy and he had to put me on hold forever before that because he had a line of people in front of him.
As for that coupon code and AWD, supposedly the AAA price was only 10% off, so the Avis guy will have some 'splaining to do if he says it makes the price way higher.
As for doing this deal over and over, I have to get the car for 7 days to bring down the costs unless I want to fight over this later with the other drivers ins company. I am choosing my battles, so I may want to give in on this, so I am renting in 7 day increments for now. I will call USAir now and see how often I can get this deal or if it is still good. Can't find the info on it on their site.

The 3000 mi deal, according to Avis, is only for Australia - bonk! The discount for the US, according to the guy on the phone at USAirways, is only 750 mi. I did get them down on the price though, by calling Avis at their 800 number (1-800-230-4898) to $149 for a week for a subcompact. He said he had a $30 off coupon code there he could use with the discounted price. So after all this I guess I can come away with the lesson that it is better to call the main number than the individual rental car storefronts. grrrrr. So, for week 1, I will get the measly 750 mi and then I will switch over to someone else I guess next week.

Thats Bull

You have to use the coupon MUAA044 to get the bonus. 750 if im not mistaken is standard so apply the coupon.....

I had the coupon code, but I'm not in Australia so according to the guy on the phone, no mas. He did try, but, like me, he couldn't get the screen to see my location, it kept coming up for a location in Australia. Did this work for you in the US?

Anyway, I ended up going with the 1500 per wk US Air miles deal with Hertz, getting a car at a small airport location down the street for a compact price, which they were going to upgrade, so I could get into a car for a good price compared to the replacement accident ins co price. However, the driver sent to pick me up yesterday drove right by my easy to find house lost, half an hour late (I saw him), and I told them we would try again today except they didn't have a driver until later so I said F it and called Enterprise to pick me up (they have lots o drivers it seems) and to give me the ins rate on a mini SUV to replace the one crashed. It would be nice to get my 120 pd Newfoundland puppy into the back seat and still be able to see out, I thought. So, the usual, an upgrade, got me into a Chrslyer Town & Country mini-van with dissapearing seats and electronic doors at the mini-suv price. Dog and I are happy.

Question - can you apply more than one coupon code to a reservation? I used a Costco discount code for a decent % off of a week-long rental I have coming up at the end of the month, but would certainly enjoy adding 3k USAir miles on top of that!

Nope
If you were able to that would be a field day!!

Double that nope. You're best bet is to go to a small rental office that isn't too busy, except for a couple distinct times during the day. They usually don't have a large carlot out back, so they have to get cars brought over from somewhere else. After the am and late afternoon rush, they are usually out of all their compacts and small cars. Ask for one of those and get upgraded when they don't have one available. You can literally check the parking lot beforehand to make sure. With the small airport location near my house, they didn't even have a driver during some parts of the day, so they had to upgrade. At busier locations, with more emps and people coming and going all day, they can more easily radio over to have someone deliver a car and it may not work. That happened at Enterprise to another customer while I was there, me having ended up specifically at that location because they had so many drivers and I was able to get picked up and dropped off almost immediately both times. Anyway, with the upgrade, even though you can use only one coupon code (its the same on alot of product websites to limit you from combining discounts), you may still feel you are getting the best deal.

How long does it usually take for the points to post? Had a rental last weekend (returned Monday).

Could anyone tell me whether these codes are correct? TIA!

That said, I still haven't gotten my miles from memorial day weekend.

Thank yo! I got the official link from Gary's blog as well. One more thing is how do I add my DM # to a reservation?

I believe as I was making the reservation it allowed me to choose the loyalty program and enter the account #. It did show up on the contract paperwork, so I know they have it.

Thanks again! I didn't find such thing online. Need call them or get confirmed at the counter.

Very strange. You're right, I just went through the reservation process and I think it used to be in step 4 that the Travel Information section had frequent flyer information. Now it only has the fields to enter the airline and flight number. Not sure what to tell you

Now the fields to enter the loyalty program and the number are back... but it's really weird: the field for the loyalty program is a free-text field, not a drop-down list. There is a way to select the program from a list, but it's optional.



In other news, my 3000 points haven't posted yet and the page that allegedly should be used to request missing miles/points just tells me that I don't have Adobe's PDF viewer (well, I am using a Mac and don't need it... Chrome can display PDFs natively and so can the Mac Preview app).

Never received my 3000 miles. The Avis Receipt on the Avis site shows 30xx miles, and the only thing that posted was the xx miles. I called Avis and they said they posted xx miles and separately 3000 miles, and that they have no way to look into it any further. I called US Airways and they told me on the phone that I need to email them. Can't find an email address for their Dividend Miles customer service center. And the website says for missing car rental partner miles contact the partner. Sigh!
