Quick Thoughts

Note that you can only use this offer once per membership number – no scaling this one into never-ending back-to-back rentals.

However, if you have / value SAS miles, this can be a nice way to top up with a few more (the current strike probably won’t last forever).

Of course, that’ll depend on whether or not rates are jacked up with the promo code. I haven’t searched extensively, but Travel with Massi reports some rental rates under $100 for four days, so it isn’t impossible to do pretty well with this offer if you have a use for the miles. YMMV.

One word of caution: you must select your member tier with SAS and enter your SAS Eurobonus number to earn the bonus miles. I believe the Avis site for this requires you to enter the information on two consecutive pages — it can be easy to miss and then more of a challenge to try to follow up and get miles after the rental. Don’t forget that the terms require you to book via the special site dedicated for the promo (if you book via the main Avis site, you’ll only get 500 miles).

Also keep in mind that SAS Eurobonus is not a transfer partner of any of the major transferable points programs in the US, so your main methods of earning more SAS miles are crediting Star Alliance flights or other rental promos like this.
