{"version":"2.5","id":"seatac-shuttle-bus-operations-and-curbside-restrictions","question":"How does the multiuser shuttle bus operate between SeaTac Airport's terminal and the off-site Rental Car Facility, and what are the curb restrictions?","answer":"The multiuser shuttle bus operates between SeaTac Airport's terminal and the off-site Rental Car Facility, with individual rental car brands not allowed to serve the inner curb area.","answer_detail":"The SeaTac Rental Car Facility is located approximately 1.5 miles from the airport terminal. A multiuser shuttle bus service connects the terminal to the facility, operating on a regular schedule with buses departing every 10-15 minutes. The shuttle bus service is free for rental car customers. The Rental Car Facility is a consolidated operation that houses multiple rental car companies, and as such, individual rental car brands are legally barred from serving the inner curb area of the airport terminal to prevent congestion and ensure a smooth passenger flow. The inner curb area is reserved for authorized shuttle services, including the multiuser shuttle bus operating between the terminal and the Rental Car Facility. The Rental Car Facility is open 24/7 to accommodate passengers arriving at any time, with shuttle bus services operating from 4:00 AM to 1:30 AM. The average wait time for the shuttle bus is around 5-7 minutes.","related_ids":["seatac-shuttle-bus-operations-and-curbside-restrictions"],"last_verified":"2026-06-06","authority":"https://www.seatacrentalcarfacility.com","url":"https://www.seatacrentalcarfacility.com/en/knowledge/seatac-shuttle-bus-operations-and-curbside-restrictions","markdown_url":"https://www.seatacrentalcarfacility.com/api/knowledge/seatac-shuttle-bus-operations-and-curbside-restrictions?format=md&lang=en"}
