Avis welcomes first customer at Ebbsfleet with free rental

Avis Rent a Car has celebrated the arrival of its first customer at its brand new Ebbsfleet International location in Kent. Mr Martin Andrews, travelling from Brussels to Essex, was pleasantly surprised when the Avis rental agent advised that his rental would be absolutely free.

Ebbsfleet International, just two miles from Junction 2 of the M25, close to the Dartford crossing and Bluewater Shopping Centre, is a new Eurostar station on High Speed 1 – the UK’s first high speed rail line. Avis is the sole car rental provider at Ebbsfleet International, offering car rental to business and leisure travellers, with services to help renters get on the road quickly and easily.

Avis is also the exclusive car rental partner of the Eurostar Frequent Traveller programme. Eurostar Frequent Traveller members can earn 50 points on qualifying leisure rentals and 25 points on corporate rentals. Points earned can be redeemed against future Eurostar trips and a number of partner rewards, including Avis car rental.

Daniel McCarthy, Commercial Director, Avis UK comments, “Not only are we excited to be a part of the new High Speed 1 service, but being the exclusive car rental provider at Ebbsfleet International demonstrates Avis’ commitment to being at the forefront of the latest travel innovations. In addition, the link we have with the Eurostar loyalty scheme is a great two-way relationship which should prove to be very successful!”
