Quick Thoughts
Hertz went through a major overhaul of the loyalty program within the last year that brought large increases in the number of points required for free day awards. The current rates start from 750 points for 1 free “standard” award rental day (blackout dates apply to these) or 1500 points for 1 free “any day” award rental day (no blackout dates). With the sale, those rates drop to 600 “standard” or 12000 “any day”. Discounts also apply to multi-day rentals, weekly rentals, specialty rentals, one-way rentals, etc. See the promotion page for the full list of deals.
I find National’s One Two Free promotion to be much more compelling than this (especially because National’s free day awards can be used for one-way rentals, whereas Hertz requires more points for a one-way free day), but if you have Hertz points sitting around and a use in mind you would do better to use them now than wait until next week.
