Airport to City Rentals with Avis from $9.99 by Sam Helmy November 14, 2017 45 Avis has introduced a new one-way car rental promo from airports to cities across the US for as little as $9.99 per rental. With this promotion, you can pick up a car from the airport and drop it off downtown, or pick it up downtown and drop it off at the airport.
