Company Overview

Avis Car Rental and its subsidiaries operate one of the world’s best-known car rental brands with approximately 5,500 locations in more than 165 countries. Avis has a long history of innovation in the car rental industry and is one of the world’s top brands for customer loyalty. Avis is owned by Avis Budget Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: CAR), which operates and licenses the brand throughout the world.  

Quick History

Founded in 1946 by Warren Avis (who sold his interest in 1954), Avis was the first company to rent cars from airport locations. The company grew rapidly during the 1950’s through franchised and corporate-owned expansion. In 1963, Avis introduced the award-winning “We try harder®” campaign and the tagline remains the company’s rallying cry even today. Ten years later, Avis launched its innovative Wizard system, the company’s proprietary reservation technology. Avis changed ownership multiple times in the 70’s and 80’s, becoming employee-owned in 1987. That same year, Avis introduced the Roving Rapid Return, a handheld computer terminal allowing customers to bypass the Avis counter. Two years later, the company launched Avis Cares® a program aimed at promoting renter and employee safety. In 1996, HFS Incorporated acquired Avis, which was then spun off as a separate public company, all but the franchising rights, Wizard system, and reservation operations. In 2000, the company introduced Avis Interactive, the first Internet-based reporting system for commercial accounts in the car rental industry, which was significantly enhanced and re-launched in 2006. In March 2001, Cendant Corporation purchased all of the outstanding shares of Avis Group Holdings and later that year moved its world headquarters to Parsippany, NJ. In 2006, Cendant Corp. separated into four independent companies: Realogy, Wyndham Worldwide, Travelport and Avis Budget Group, Inc., which is now the parent company of Avis Car Rental. In 2011, Avis Budget Group acquires Avis Europe plc. The transaction re-unites Avis Budget Group with its licensee for Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia.

Additional Travel Information

The Avis Car Rental counter at North Central West Virginia Airport (CKB) is conveniently located right inside the baggage claim area. Here on business? You’ll find a range of Avis airport car rentals to suit your needs. If you anticipate that most of your driving will be within Clarksburg, choose a compact car for great gas mileage and mobility. On the other hand, if your trip here involves more than city driving, choose a luxury vehicle or SUV for comfort and style. If you’re a frequent visitor to the Clarksburg area, you can accelerate your travel experience with Avis Preferred, a complimentary membership that allows you to skip the line and go straight to your car.

Once you’ve got your keys in hand, just step outside the baggage claim area to pick up your CKB car rental. From the Clarksburg airport car rentals lot, it’s a 15-minute drive to Clarksburg’s historical district, home of Waldo Hotel. If you have the opportunity to stay there, you should; it’s one of America’s most luxurious hotels. It’s also quite close to one of the best views in the country, from Cheat Canyon at Rock State Forest. Alone or with colleagues, it’s a great photo opportunity.

But first, you’ll need a vehicle to get around, and you won’t find a professional experience when it comes to North Central West Virginia Airport rental cars than you will at Avis. Browse through the fleet to find great deals on quality vehicles for whatever you need to make your trip a success.
