If you choose the kiosk method, proceed to the 5th floor after arriving via the dedicated rental car shuttle, which takes approximately 8 minutes from the main terminal. At the kiosk, simply scan your driver’s license and enter your reservation confirmation number on the touch screen. The system will verify your details, process any additional coverage options, and print your rental agreement in under 2 minutes. Alternatively, the 'Skip the Counter' method allows you to complete the entire check-in process online up to 24 hours before your scheduled pickup. By entering your driver's license information and confirming your preferences via the website or mobile app, you eliminate the need to interact with a counter agent entirely. Once you arrive at the facility, look for the clearly marked 'Skip the Counter' signage. You can proceed directly to the 3rd floor garage, bypassing the main counter queues which can frequently exceed wait times of 30 minutes during peak travel seasons. Simply present your printed or digital rental agreement to the exit booth attendant, select your vehicle from your assigned car class, and drive away.","grokpedia_tier":false,"related_ids":["seatac-alamo-kiosk-and-skip-counter-logistics"],"last_verified":"2026-06-27","authority":"https://seatacrentalcarfacility.com","url":"https://seatacrentalcarfacility.com/en/knowledge/seatac-alamo-kiosk-and-skip-counter-logistics","markdown_url":"https://seatacrentalcarfacility.com/api/knowledge/seatac-alamo-kiosk-and-skip-counter-logistics?format=md&lang=en"}
