Tired of long rental car lines? You can get free National Executive status when you click this link through a desktop browser (mobile devices don’t seem to work).
I’ve written before about getting free Avis First status and National Executive status, but now there’s another way.
Here’s how you can jump the line and get free upgrades.
National Emerald Club Executive Status
Link: National Emerald Club Executive Status
Link: Sign-up for free National Emerald Club Executive Status (desktop computers only)
When you sign-up through this link, you get a free upgrade to National Emerald Club Executive Status through February 28, 2017.
Signing-up is quick and easy! But you might have to submit the form twice to get it to work!
Note: This will set your expiration date to February 28, 2017, even if your current expiration date is further out.
With National Emerald Club Executive status you get:
- Any rental car from the “Executive Aisle” (full-size or larger)
- Free upgrades
- 1 free rental day with 5 paid rentals
- Pay no 2nd driver fees
If you already have a National account, your account will be upgraded to Executive status.
You can also get free National Emerald Club Executive status if you have the American Express Platinum card.
Match to Hertz Five Star StatusLink: Hertz Five Star status
Link: Match your Avis First or National Emerald status to Hertz Five Star status
After signing-up for free National Emerald Club status, you can match your National Emerald status to Hertz Five Star status.
Hertz Five Star gets you:
- Free upgrades (based on availability)
- 675 Hertz points after every 15 rentals
- 10% bonus Hertz points with each rental
Bottom Line
You can get free National Executive status (accessible via desktop computers only) until February 28, 2017.
And it only takes a few minutes!
National Executive status gets you full-size or larger cars, free upgrades, a free rental after every 5 rentals, and no 2nd driver fees.
And you can match National Executive status to Hertz Five star status.
