Maximise your Avios, air miles and hotel points

Get bonus Accor hotel points with Sixt car rentals

Accor Live Limitless has launched a new promotion with Sixt.

This could be quite valuable. Remember that Accor points are worth 2 Eurocents each towards a hotel stay, or convert at 1:1 into Iberia Avios (ignore the weaker option of 2:1 into BA Avios).

This offer also includes a free additional driver.

Get bonus Accor points with Sixt car rentals

You receive:

  • 400 ALL points for a €50 rental
  • 700 ALL points for a €100 rental
  • 1,100 ALL points for a €150 rental

This means you’d get points worth €22 for a €150 rental and get the free additional driver benefit.

The small print is:

  • Book by 22nd July
  • Return the vehicle by 30th September
  • Rent from 2 to 27 days
  • Points offer is valid in all countries
  • Free additional driver is valid for rentals in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Great Britain, France, Monaco, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, USA, Canada

It is often the case that these offers force you to accept a poor value rate code. However, it is difficult to discount Sixt rentals, unlike Hertz and Avis which have codes galore.

I have a Sixt booking for next week in Germany which I have just rebooked under this offer, and the cost fell from €530 to €460 – and the €530 was using the Virgin Flying Club status discount code, not the standard rate. The Accor points I’ll receive are also worth more than Virgin Points.
