## At a glance

Take the 24/7 Rental Car Shuttle or walk via the Skybridge to reach the terminal arrivals level for rideshares, taxis, hotel shuttles, or the Link Light Rail.

## What to know

After returning your vehicle on the 5th floor of the SeaTac Rental Car Facility, you have two primary methods to reach the terminal and transit options. The most common and accessible route is taking the Rental Car Shuttle, which operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with an average wait time of just 3 to 5 minutes. Board the shuttle at the designated stops on the 1st floor (Ground Transportation level). The shuttle will drop you off on the Arrivals level (Door 2 or Door 6) of the main terminal. Alternatively, if you prefer to walk, you can use the enclosed, moving walkway Skybridge located on the 4th floor. The walk takes approximately 8 to 10 minutes and covers a distance of about 0. Once you arrive at the terminal Arrivals level on the 3rd floor, you can easily access various transit options. Rideshare pickups (Uber, Lyft) are located on the 3rd floor Arrivals curb. Taxis and hotel shuttles are found on the 2nd floor Garage parking level. For the Link Light Rail, proceed to the 4th floor of the parking garage and follow the signs to the SeaTac/Airport Station, where a one-way adult fare to downtown Seattle starts at $3.
