Where is the Avis counter at Moncton Airport in New Brunswick?
The Avis counter at Moncton International Airport (YQM) is located inside the terminal in the baggage claim area, at 777 Aviation Avenue, Moncton, New Brunswick, E1A 7Z5. No shuttle is required as the rental cars are parked onsite directly outside the terminal.
Counter hours at Moncton Airport are:
- Monday to Friday: 8:00 AM to 12:15 AM
- Saturday and Sunday: 10:00 AM to 12:15 AM
A 24-hour key drop box is available for after-hours returns. Simply park the vehicle in the designated Avis area, lock it, place your contract and keys in the drop box, and keep all your belongings.
If you are picking up from the Avis downtown Moncton location (515 Main Street), counter hours are Monday to Friday 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM and Saturday to Sunday 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM, also with 24-hour drop-off available.
Where is the Avis counter at Fredericton Airport in New Brunswick?
The Avis counter at Fredericton International Airport (YFC) is located in the baggage claim area of the terminal, at 2570 Route 102 Highway, Unit 5, Fredericton, New Brunswick, E3B 9G1. Rental cars are parked onsite, so no shuttle is needed after you collect your keys at the counter.
When returning your Avis vehicle at Fredericton Airport, drive back to the same address and follow signs to the rental car parking area. For after-hours returns, use the key drop box: park the car, lock it, place your contract and keys in the box, and retain a photo of the vehicle condition and fuel gauge for your records.
Avis also operates a downtown Fredericton location for renters who prefer an off-airport pickup in New Brunswick. Confirm exact hours for each location directly on your booking confirmation before travel.
Are there toll roads on Avis rentals in New Brunswick?
No, there are no toll roads anywhere in New Brunswick, so you will not encounter any toll charges during a standard Avis rental within the province.
This means you do not need to enroll in any toll program, purchase a transponder package, or worry about post-rental toll billing while driving in New Brunswick. This is a notable advantage compared to other Canadian provinces such as Ontario, which operates the 407 ETR toll highway, or routes involving the Confederation Bridge to Prince Edward Island.
If your Avis itinerary takes you beyond New Brunswick into other provinces, toll requirements may apply in those regions. Keep all toll receipts from any portion of your trip outside New Brunswick, as they may be eligible for the Tolls Cashback benefit included with your booking.
Does the Tolls Cashback benefit apply to my Avis rental in New Brunswick?
Yes, the Tolls Cashback benefit is included with all bookings, including your Avis rental in New Brunswick, even though New Brunswick itself has no toll roads.
If your trip extends beyond New Brunswick into provinces where tolls apply, such as Ontario or routes crossing into Prince Edward Island, you can claim back up to 5% of your total Avis booking value for tolls paid during the rental period.
To claim, email [email protected] within 30 days of returning your Avis vehicle in New Brunswick or at your final drop-off point. Include:
- Your booking confirmation
- The signed rental agreement from the Avis counter
- A receipt or statement showing the toll charges paid
Refunds are processed to your original payment method within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Late submissions received after 30 days are not accepted.
Is there a young driver surcharge for Avis rentals in New Brunswick?
Yes, Avis applies a young driver surcharge in New Brunswick for renters aged 21 to 24. The fee is CADUS$ 25.00 per rental day.
In addition to the daily surcharge, Avis in New Brunswick restricts drivers in this age group from renting certain vehicle categories, including:
- Luxury cars
- Minivans
- 12-passenger vans
- Specialty cars
- Standard, full-size, and premium SUVs
Drivers must be at least 21 years old to rent from Avis in New Brunswick. Renters aged 25 and over are not subject to any underage surcharge.
If you are adding an additional driver to your Avis reservation in New Brunswick, note that the additional driver must also be at least 25 years old under Avis policy. The young driver surcharge and vehicle restrictions apply to the additional driver as well if they are between 21 and 24.
What documents do I need to pick up an Avis rental car in New Brunswick?
To collect your Avis rental in New Brunswick, you must present the following physical documents at the counter:
- A valid, original driver's license (not a digital copy)
- A major credit card in the main driver's name, with the driver's name printed on the physical card, for the security deposit hold
- A passport or valid government-issued photo ID
- Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
- Round-trip flight or cruise tickets if you are visiting from abroad
If your driver's license is not in English and does not use a Latin alphabet (for example, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script), an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory alongside your original license. For licenses in other non-English scripts, an IDP is strongly recommended. The IDP is a translation only and cannot be used without the original license.
All documents presented at the Avis counter in New Brunswick must be physical originals. Digital versions shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted. Obtain your IDP in your home country before traveling, as it cannot be issued abroad.
What credit card do I need for the Avis security deposit in New Brunswick?
You must present a physical major credit card in the main driver's name, with the driver's name printed on the card, at the Avis counter in New Brunswick. Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual or digital-wallet-only cards are not accepted for the security deposit hold.
For Avis rentals in New Brunswick, the typical security deposit hold in Canada is approximately CADUS$ 300 to CADUS$ 500, though some locations may hold up to CADUS$ 750. The exact amount depends on the vehicle class, rental duration, and location. Premium or specialty vehicles may carry a higher hold.
The hold is a temporary authorization, not a charge. It reduces your available credit until Avis releases it after you return the vehicle. Your bank controls how quickly the hold disappears from your statement, which can take up to 15 business days.
Before your Avis pickup in New Brunswick, notify your bank of your travel plans to prevent fraud blocks on the in-person authorization, and consider bringing a backup credit card in your name.
How does the fuel policy work for Avis rentals in New Brunswick?
Avis rentals in New Brunswick follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.
At pickup, verify the fuel gauge with the Avis agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on the rental agreement. Take a photo of the dashboard showing both the odometer and the fuel gauge.
Before returning your Avis vehicle in New Brunswick, refuel within approximately 15 km of the return location so the gauge does not drop below full during the drive back. Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address.
If you return the vehicle below the recorded starting level, Avis may charge:
- A fuel shortfall at the partner's refueling rate, which is typically higher than retail pump prices
- A refueling service or administrative fee
For after-hours returns at locations such as Moncton Airport (YQM) or Fredericton Airport (YFC), leave the fuel receipt in the key drop envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge as evidence.
Is third-party liability insurance included in an Avis rental in New Brunswick?
Yes, basic third-party liability coverage is included by default with Avis rentals in New Brunswick. Under Canadian provincial law, every rental vehicle must carry third-party liability insurance, so this statutory coverage follows the car automatically when you rent in New Brunswick.
However, the included statutory liability may provide only minimum coverage limits. If you want higher protection, you can add a Liability Insurance Supplement (LIS) to your Avis booking in New Brunswick, which can provide coverage up to US$300,000 for bodily injury and property damage caused to third parties.
It is important to understand what each coverage type protects:
- Third-party liability covers injury or property damage you cause to others
- CDW/LDW covers damage to the Avis rental vehicle itself
- Personal Accident Insurance (PAI) covers your own injuries
Review your booking confirmation to confirm exactly which coverages are included in your Avis rate for New Brunswick, and consider adding supplemental liability if the included limits do not meet your needs.
Can I add an additional driver to my Avis rental in New Brunswick?
Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Avis rental in New Brunswick, but the additional driver must be present at the Avis counter at pickup with a valid driver's license to sign the rental agreement.
For Avis in New Brunswick, the additional driver must be at least 25 years old. If the additional driver is between 21 and 24, a young driver surcharge of CADUS$ 25.00 per day applies, and vehicle class restrictions may also apply.
If your booking confirmation states that an additional driver is included at no extra charge, no fee applies for the first extra driver. If it is not included, Avis charges CAD equivalent of US$13 per rental day plus taxes, with a maximum charge of US$65 plus taxes.
To add an additional driver to your Avis reservation in New Brunswick:
- Bring the additional driver to the Avis counter at pickup
- Have them present their valid driver's license (and IDP if required)
- Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement
- Verify the additional driver's name appears on your contract before leaving the counter
Only drivers listed on the Avis rental agreement in New Brunswick are covered by the vehicle's protections.
What happens if I return my Avis car late in New Brunswick?
If you return your Avis vehicle after the agreed drop-off time in New Brunswick, a grace period of approximately 30 minutes typically applies, though this is not guaranteed at every location. If you exceed the grace period, Avis may charge for additional hours or a full extra day, plus a late return fee.
To avoid late return charges on your Avis rental in New Brunswick:
- Plan your return to arrive before the scheduled time, accounting for refueling near the return location
- If you need more time, contact Avis directly to request an extension before the original return time passes
- For after-hours returns at Moncton Airport (YQM) or Fredericton Airport (YFC), use the key drop box and keep a photo of the vehicle condition and odometer
Note that Avis counters in New Brunswick have specific operating hours. Returning outside those hours using the key drop box does not extend your rental period automatically. Your rental contract end time remains as booked, and charges are calculated from that time.
Can I pick up my Avis car in New Brunswick and drop it off in another province?
Yes, one-way rentals are generally possible with Avis in New Brunswick, allowing you to pick up in one city or province and return the vehicle elsewhere, but a drop-off fee may apply depending on the route.
For Avis rentals originating in New Brunswick, the drop-off fee is route-specific and varies by destination, vehicle class, and season. The fee will be shown under the "To pay at destination" section during the booking process and on your confirmation. It cannot be prepaid and is not covered by No Extra Charges© unless it was not disclosed at booking.
Common one-way scenarios from New Brunswick:
- Returning to a different New Brunswick city (for example, Moncton to Saint John) may or may not carry a fee depending on the route
- Returning to another Canadian province such as Nova Scotia or Quebec typically incurs a drop-off fee
- Cross-border returns to the United States may be restricted or require prior approval from Avis
Always confirm the one-way fee and any cross-border driving permissions on your booking confirmation before picking up your Avis vehicle in New Brunswick.
Does travel assistance coverage apply to my Avis rental in New Brunswick?
Yes, most bookings include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection, and this applies to your Avis rental in New Brunswick. However, this benefit is available only to non-North American residents. Canadian and US residents do not qualify for this coverage.
For eligible renters driving with Avis in New Brunswick, the travel assistance coverage typically includes:
- Travel and medical insurance for up to 5 passengers
- Legal assistance in the event of a road accident
- Compensation for baggage lost by the airline
- Flight cancellation insurance
New Brunswick includes stretches of highway and rural roads where medical facilities may not be immediately nearby, making this coverage particularly relevant if you are involved in an incident away from Moncton, Fredericton, or Saint John.
To use the coverage, contact the assistance line before incurring expenses where prior authorization is required:
- Phone (24/7, toll-free): +1 888 980 9992
- WhatsApp: +1 208 910 1001
