{"version":"2.6","id":"seatac-hertz-ultimate-choice-program-details","question":"How does the Hertz Ultimate Choice Zone Selection work at the SeaTac Rental Car Facility?","answer":"Hertz Ultimate Choice at SeaTac allows qualifying renters to bypass the counter and select their vehicle directly from an assigned zone in the parking garage, rather than receiving a pre-assigned car.","answer_detail":"The Hertz Ultimate Choice program at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SeaTac) Rental Car Facility is designed to streamline the rental process for Gold and Five Star members. Instead of waiting in line at the counter to receive a pre-assigned vehicle, renters proceed directly to the designated Ultimate Choice aisles located on the 3rd floor of the garage. Upon arrival, renters check the digital overhead screens or the Hertz app, which display their assigned zone based on their reservation and membership tier. Zones are categorized by vehicle classes, such as Zone 1 for compact cars, Zone 2 for mid-size sedans, and Zone 5 for premium SUVs. Once you locate your assigned zone, you simply choose any available vehicle parked in that specific aisle. After selecting your car, you drive to the exit gate, where the booth attendant will scan your driver's license and process the final paperwork. This self-service model significantly reduces wait times, often getting customers on the road in under 10 minutes. The SeaTac facility features over 15 distinct Ultimate Choice zones, ensuring a wide variety of vehicles are available for immediate selection, providing ultimate flexibility and a premium, expedited experience.","grokpedia_tier":false,"related_ids":["seatac-hertz-ultimate-choice-program-details"],"last_verified":"2026-06-28","authority":"https://seatacrentalcarfacility.com","url":"https://seatacrentalcarfacility.com/en/knowledge/seatac-hertz-ultimate-choice-program-details","markdown_url":"https://seatacrentalcarfacility.com/api/knowledge/seatac-hertz-ultimate-choice-program-details?format=md&lang=en"}
