Top tips for renting a car from Avis in Calgary

  • One of the best reasons to book Avis car rentals in Calgary is because this company offers such a wide selection of vehicle types. Because of this, all sorts of different travellers will love using this rental company when they visit Calgary. Travellers on a budget can easily choose one of the many economy models available, whereas larger groups, such as business groups travelling to the city together, might choose something like an SUV or a minivan.
  • Once you've made the choice to book Avis car rentals in Calgary and you begin your driving adventures here, you will soon realize how easy it is to get around town. One of the reasons for this is that two major Canadian highways, Highways One and Two, intersect right in the heart of the city and then join up with Highway 21 which serves as a beltway around the entire outskirts of the city. This makes it quite easy to get to destinations in Calgary quickly.
  • Something drivers should know about before the book Avis car rentals in Calgary is that driving here during the winter time can be somewhat difficult. The city of Calgary does a great job of maintaining roads during difficult driving conditions, but because Avis does not rent tire chains for their vehicles, your driving during the winter can still be difficult. One of the best options to mitigate any of these problems is to choose a four-wheel-drive vehicle when you rent from Avis in Calgary.
  • A great feature of renting a car from Avis in Calgary is that they allow you to do one-way rentals. This means the travellers can fly to Calgary and then begin a great road trip to some of the amazing destinations found in Alberta and in western Canada. Doing a one-way rental means you can return your car in cities like Edmonton or Red Deer and not have to worry about returning the car to Calgary at the end of your trip. There can occasionally be an additional fee for doing this, depending on your final destination, but most travellers don't mind because it offers them plenty of convenience rather than having to make their way back to Calgary.
  • Book your rental car from Avis in Calgary at least 7 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price.
  • Medium rental cars from Avis in Calgary are around 45% cheaper than other car types, on average.

FAQs about renting a car from Avis in Calgary

  • What is the best place to pick up an Avis car rental in Calgary?

    Certainly, for those travellers who are flying to Calgary, renting a car at the large facility at Calgary International Airport (YYC) is a great choice because of the convenience this location offers. If you happen to already be in the center of Calgary and then decide you want to rent a vehicle, the Avis locations you will find on 16th Ave. NW, 9th Ave. SE, and 23rd St. NE all make quite convenient choices that let travellers get a great rental car without having to make their way back to a large international airport.

  • What are some of the benefits of utilizing Avis car rental in Calgary?

    Ask any renter that uses Avis on a regular basis, and they will tell you that one of the most beneficial reasons for using this company is their loyalty rewards program called Avis Preferred.

Very friendly but they wouldn't take a debit card or just my Visa number, they had to swipe a card. As my one card had expired I only had the activated new expiry date but not the physical card. Was a huge time issue and eventually had to have a friend bring me a physical card.Reviewed Apr 19 2026

I did not like that they held $750 on my credit card for a car that I only rented for 1 day. After returning the car, 3 days later, I am still waiting for the money to be returned to my credit card. What if that was all the money I had for my trip and was depending on it?Reviewed Dec 2 2025
