Lufthansa Expands Miles & More Partnership with Avis

Members of the Lufthansa frequent flyer programme, Miles & More, can now rent a car from Avis, worldwide, without a time limit. Car rentals for miles were previously restricted to selected countries and only when a car was hired for a weekend or a week.

 Besides more flexibility when redeeming mileage for a rental, the booking process has also been simplified. Members redeeming miles to rent a car at Avis merely enter their customer number and PIN on the miles-and-more.avis.de website. The charge for the required rental is then shown in miles. Once a customer confirms a booking, the mileage shown is automatically deducted from their mile-credit account.

 In a promotion with Miles & More up to year-end 2010, Avis is also offering customers more bonus miles each time they rent, allowing them to earn up to 3,000 award miles per rental, the more often they rent.
