Beginning Thursday, customers who rent two times can receive a rental reward day with the launch of Avis Rent A Car's new "Free to Get Away" promotion.

"Avis has a long tradition of rewarding its customers," said Becky Alseth, senior vice president of marketing for Avis Budget Group, the parent company of Avis. "'Free to Get Away' rewards are just another way for us to thank our customers for renting with Avis, and give them a reason to get away."
