    PARK RIDGE, N.J., Nov. 16 The Hertz Corporation
, the world's largest car rental company, is participating in the
AOL AAdvantage Rewards program, the largest online and offline rewards
program.  AOL AAdvantage Rewards (http://www.aolaadvantage.com or AOL Keyword:
Rewards), is an innovative program offering millions of consumers convenient
opportunities to earn miles through their daily activities, and redeem miles
for air travel and brand name consumer products and services.  Through the
alliance, AOL AAdvantage Rewards members are able to earn miles for renting a
car from Hertz.
     Members of the AOL AAdvantage Rewards program are eligible to earn one
mile per dollar spent on all qualifying car rentals at participating worldwide
Hertz locations.  To earn miles, the AOL AAdvantage Rewards membership number
must be provided at time of reservation, car rental pick-up or car rental
return.
    To launch Hertz' participation in the program, members of AOL AAdvantage
Rewards can receive one day free on designated Hertz' Leisure Weekly or
Leisure Weekend Rate Rentals in North America now through January 31, 2001.
The free-day offer applies to rentals, of at least three days, of full-size
vehicles or larger. To receive the one-day-free offer, members must request
Promotion Code (PC#) 914616 and provide the AOL AAdvantage Rewards Discount
Plan Number (CDP#) 217692 at time of reservation.
    In addition, AOL AAdvantage Rewards members who subscribe to AOL are
eligible to receive triple miles on all qualifying North American Hertz

triple miles, Promotion Code (PC#) 914642 and AOL AAdvantage Rewards Discount

these special offers and all applicable terms and conditions, are located on
the Hertz Offer pages at http://www.aolaadvantage.com.
    Mileage will not be awarded on taxes, fuel charges or other fees, but will
be earned on most of Hertz' other optional services.  Rentals that involve
tour packages, travel industry discounts or any other frequent flyer car
rental awards are not eligible for miles.
    AOL AAdvantage Rewards, the result of the partnership between America
Online and American Airlines, is available free of charge to anyone on the
Internet, including, but not limited to, AOL members and AAdvantage members.
    The currency is AOL AAdvantage miles.  Members can easily earn miles by
purchasing products and services from participating merchants such as Hertz,
by traveling on American Airlines or American Eagle, by enrolling in various
services across the AOL brands, and by participating in online surveys.  AOL
AAdvantage miles are redeemable for a wide variety of travel and non-travel
related products and services such as books, CDs, videos, and free AOL
service.

140 countries.
