Hertz Joins TWA's Aviators Frequent Flyer Program - Partnership Kicks-off with Triple Miles Promotion -

    PARK RIDGE, N.J., Feb. 1 -- Effective immediately, The Hertz
Corporation , the world's largest car rental company, has joined
the TWA Aviators frequent flyer program.  Launching the program is the
opportunity for Aviators members to earn triple miles with each Hertz rental
now through April 30, 1999.
    Members of the Aviators program are eligible to earn one mile per dollar
spent on all qualifying commercial contract and government rentals and two
miles per dollar spent on all other qualifying rentals.  To earn miles,
rentals must take place at a participating location worldwide within 24 hours
before or after a TWA or TWA partner airline flight.
    To launch the program, Hertz' triple miles promotion offers Aviators
members the opportunity to earn three miles per dollar spent on all qualifying
commercial contract and government rentals and six miles per dollar spent on
all other qualifying rentals.  To receive triple miles, Promotion Code (PC#):
900211 must be mentioned at time of reservation.  The triple miles are
available on all car class rentals and at all participating airport locations
worldwide.  Blackout dates may apply.
    "The Aviators program recently placed in the top three of seven categories
in the prestigious Freddie awards after less than a year in existence," said
Beth Mack, TWA Vice President, Marketing.  "Partnering with Hertz is another
tangible sign of this commitment to the business traveler."
    "We're excited to join TWA's new frequent flyer program, Aviators,"
commented Elliot Friedman, Division Vice President, Travel Industry and
Commercial Marketing, Hertz Rent A Car.  "In addition to earning miles, the
new partnership will bring additional value to our mutual customers."
    A current airline ticket, boarding pass or ticket receipt must be
presented at time of pickup along with an Aviators membership card.  All
standard rental qualifications apply.
    Mileage will not be awarded on taxes, fuel or fees, but will be earned on
most of Hertz' optional services such as Loss Damage Waiver and Liability
Insurance Supplement.  Transactions occurring outside the US will be converted
into US dollar amounts to determine mileage awards.  Rentals that involve tour
packages, travel industry discounts, or frequent flyer car rental awards are
not eligible for miles.
    TWA flies approximately two million passengers per month on more than
800 daily flights to 90 destinations in America, the Caribbean, Europe, North
Africa and the Middle East.  Frequent Flyer/J.D. Power & Associates recently
ranked TWA the number one airline in 1998 in customer satisfaction for long
flights, meaning domestic flights of 500 miles or more.
