Iberia Plus and Avis have returned with another lucrative promotion. If you book and rent a car – group C or above – during any 3-day weekend between 4 October and 15 December, 2018, you can collect a minimum of 9,000 Avios.

Perhaps I am uniquely unlucky, but Avis have tended to deny my bonus Avios for promotions such as these. So it’s important to pay very close attention to the Terms and Conditions.

1.This promotion is open to Iberia Plus members resident worldwide.

2.Qualifying rentals must be booked and taken between 04 October and 15 December 2018.

3.To qualify, rental must include a weekend and rental length must be minimum 3 days and minimum car group C or above. The bookings must include a Saturday night to Sunday.

4.Rentals must be booked on iberia.com, rentacar-iberia.com, avis.es or with the Avis Call Centre.

5.Valid for all participating rental locations in the following European countries: Spain mainland, Balearics and Canaries, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, France, Italy, Portugal, the Netherlands and United Kingdom.

6.Rentals must include the Iberia Plus membership number of the first named driver (the “renter”). This Iberia Plus membership number must be given at time of reservation and the card shown at time of rental.

7.Qualifying rentals will receive a minimum award of 9,000 Avios for each rental if you book and rent between 04 October and 15 December 2018. Maximum award would be 10,000 Avios per rental.

8.This Avios bonus is not valid on Corporate AWD rentals, Prestige rentals, Chauffeur Drive or Van rentals worldwide.

9.Offer may not be used in conjunction with any other coupon, promotion or frequent flyer points offer. Conjunctive or concurrent rentals will not qualify, in these circumstances only the first rental to be completed will qualify. Avis reserves the right to withdraw the offer at any time.

I’m not sure why I have been unlucky in previous versions. Perhaps I was trying to use a cashback website or my Avis Preferred account automatically adds an ineligible AWD code. If I need a weekend car rental, I’ll certainly try again, but I won’t be renting a car and merely parking it for the weekend in order to chase 9,000 Avios…
