Budget Rent A Car partners with Hilton HHonors

Hilton HHonors recently announced a new partnership with Budget Rent A Car. HHonors members will now be able to earn points and get discounts of up to 20 per cent on their rentals from Budget.

Hilton HHonors will award members up to 2,000 bonus points when they rent a car with Budget at participating locations in Canada or America until the end of June this year.

One to three day rentals with Budget will earn HHonors members 1,000 bonus points. Rentals of four or more days will be awarded 2,000 bonus points.

After June 30th, HHonors members will still be awarded points when renting Budget vehicles. Qualifying rentals at particular locations will earn members 250 HHonors bonus points.

Adam Burke, senior vice president of customer loyalty for Hilton Hotels Corporation, said: “By offering more car rental alliances than many competing programs, Hilton HHonors provides members with more ways to conveniently earn points while they travel.”

He continued: “With over 1,900 car rental locations and 50 years in the business, Budget is a fit for our program. Now, HHonors members can enjoy the great value and service provided by Budget while earning HHonors bonus points.”

Kaye Ceille, senior vice president of global travel and partnership sales at Avis Budget Group, parent company of Budget, said: “Budget customers are savvy shoppers who appreciate great deals. As people begin planning their summer travel, this alliance offers them a new way to make their travel dollar go farther. As one of the world’s foremost global travel loyalty programs, we believe Hilton HHonors will prove to be very appealing to Budget renters.”
