Hertz #1 club or Avis?
I am starting to do more travel with hire cars and I am looking at Hertz or Avis to go with on a permanent basis. The threads I have read seem a bit down on Hertz #1 club.
What are your thoughts between the two major car rentals in September 2008? Regards |

Re: Hertz #1 club or Avis?
What are you looking for and how much renting do you do, Hertz looks after their presidents circle members well but you need at least 30 rentals a year, with free upgrades and guaranteed availability.

Go with Hertz. The value of the miles that you earn with BMI far outweighs any advantage you'll get with Avis.

Hertz #1 Gold can usually be had with a waiver of the joining fee, so if you go Hertz, I would go with that.

Re: Hertz #1 club or Avis?
I'll go against the grain here.....
I recommend Avis preffered, simply on the basis that in my experience I have found my Hetz #1 Gold card useless, cars never available when I need them, expensive, lack of service and support. However, I signed up with Avis preferred (no cost), and it is sooo much easier for me, cars are always available at a better rate, and I turn up, look at the board, and jump in the car..... cant get much easier, and not to mention upgrades are plentiful. Just my experience and preference. Points etc don't bother me, it is the convenience. |
