Trying to be a good citizen and not start a new topic. On my way home to Florida and I’m sitting in the Bob Hope airport in beautiful downtown Burbank. Rented a car for the week from Avis and have a Florida Government Employee discount. Car rental was $266, but taxes and other “fees” brought the total to $383-ish. So, almost a 50% surcharge over the base rental fee. I don’t have enough privs on this site to attach the invoice PDF, but the charges are something like this:
11.11% Concession recover fee. $31.15
VEH LICENSE RECOUP 1.80/DY. $14.40
Tax 10.25% (Obviously required). $31.93
CUSTOMER FACILITY CHG 6.00/DY $30.00
3.50 CALIFORNIA TOURISM FE $9.31
Can anyone advise if any of the fees are negotiable if I called Avis to complain?
