Flybe and Avis launch "Lucky Number 8" promotion

4 Feb 2011 by BusinessTraveller

Flybe customers who book Avis rentals on the carrier’s website and receive a “lucky” reservation number ending in “8”, are being offered free rentals to celebrate Chinese New Year.

The number eight is considered to be lucky in Chinese, and this, combined with the fact that Chinese New Year is currently being celebrated, and the eight-year partnership between Flybe and Avis, has led the carrier to offer the free rentals.

Passengers with rental reservations (made before February 18) ending in the number eight will receive their rental for free. Winning customers should email [email protected] with their reservation number, full name, email address and telephone number (or alternatively forwarding their car hire email confirmation).

Those who have prepaid for their reservation will have the cost of the rental refunded to their credit card, while those who have chosen the "pay later" option will be sent a voucher to cover the cost of the rental.

Note that only the cost of the actual rental will be refunded – extras, such as additional driver, child seats, GPS, fuel and additional insurances will still need to be paid.

In addition Flybe and Avis are currently offering the following eight other car rental promotions:

  • UK weekend rental from £15 per day 
  • Generous discounts for rentals in France - prices from £25 per day
  • Sale prices from £16 per day across the Flybe network 
  • Spain from £94 per week
  • Free car hire upgrades for passengers travelling to Jersey
  • 33% savings on weekend rentals
  • Free weekend car rental when you rent for a week
