Avis Launches Arrive and Drive Service at London Heathrow

Avis Car Rental now provides the Avis Prestige Arrive & Drive service at London Heathrow, offering a streamlined plane-to-car experience for business and leisure travelers.

Available at no extra charge for Avis Prestige customers, this service allows vehicle collection at any Heathrow terminal. Avis is the only global car rental company offering Arrive & Drive from all Heathrow terminals, simplifying travel logistics for arriving passengers.

On arrival, an Avis representative meets customers in the terminal arrivals hall and escorts them directly to their vehicle. This removes the need to transfer to a separate rental desk or wait in line to complete paperwork, saving time and reducing stress after a flight.

The Arrive & Drive service operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, making it suitable for early-morning arrivals, late-night flights and everything in between. The continuous availability ensures customers can begin their onward journey without delay, regardless of arrival time.

In addition to guiding customers to the car, the designated Avis representative assists with luggage and answers any questions about the vehicle. They also help set up the satellite navigation system so drivers can depart quickly and confidently.

This service is particularly useful for business travelers who need to get to meetings or events promptly, as well as families and leisure travelers heading to holidays or short breaks. By combining personalized meet-and-greet assistance with direct vehicle handover, Avis Prestige Arrive & Drive minimizes transit time and improves the overall airport-to-road experience.

Nina Bell, Managing Director, Northern Region, Avis Budget Group, said the service is designed to meet the needs of customers who value efficiency and convenience: “Whether you’re a customer who needs to hire a car and head to a corporate event, or a family who wants to head off to a holiday getaway, we hope our customers enjoy the service at London Heathrow.”
