Call up tell them you need to rent very soon and they should give you an email address to send it to. At most it will take two days to post just thru emailing them. They gave me an email address but don't remember what@avisbudget.com

if you do pay now with avis it would be 913 with awd 108303(costco) but might be worth using usaa for 966 for it includes second driver and ldw.

Sorry didn't realize they give unlimited miles for such a rental its 909 at hertz for a midsize. All five star helps is that they may give you an upgrade. It's more kdai to take out a monthly, its 811 at avis.
