What is the Car Rental Discount with a Costco Credit Card?
Harry asks:
What is the car rental discount with a Costco credit card for a nine day car rental in Munich, Germany for a medium 4-door car? Also how much would a navigation system cost? Thank you.
My Response:
I'll start first with your question about the discount with a Costco credit card. I'm assuming by a Costco Credit Card, you mean the American Express Costco Cash Rebate Card. Discount car rental benefits are available at participating countries.
For example: you can receive car rental discounts with (links open in a new window) Avis, Budget, National, Alamo and Thrifty at participating locations in the United States and Thrifty and Budget in Canada.
Unfortunately, there was no car rental discount with the Costco credit card available for Munich.
There were only 5 travel related discount offers for Germany associated with a Costco Credit Card:
30% off the best available room rate at the Golden Tulip Hotel
A room upgrade at the Mandala Hotel
An upgrade at MARC AUREL Spa & Golf Resort
20 % off the Hosteria Nobili Fulcis restaurant
Note: discount with a Costco credit card and Costco credit card offers above, available at the time this question was answered... offers subject to change without notice.
Regarding, the navigation system I checked Alamo, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, National -- none of these websites offered a choice in their optional items that included a gps. They are available at: Avis -- $3.36 US per day, Hertz - navigation system was $93 Eur extra for the nine day rental period, and with Thrifty, a navigation system is an extra 10.00 Eur per day.
