At CONRAC, holds typically release 5–14 business days after return depending on bank batching — not instant at drop-off.\n\nSkip-the-counter marketing rarely means zero interaction at SeaTac. Loyalty tiers may bypass the main queue but still require ID verification, contract signing, or kiosk steps.\n\nKayak averages hide CFC (~$7/day) and ACRF (11.1%) stacked on base rates. Compare all-in daily cost, not headline $/day.\n\nOff-airport discounters save base rate but add shuttle legs and opaque fee stacks — time-to-curb often loses to CONRAC for tight connections.\n\n## Sources & verification\n\nCanonical: https://seatacrentalcarfacility.com/en/knowledge/toyota-highlander-seatac-return-fees-after-hours-drop-2026\nAPI long: /api/knowledge/toyota-highlander-seatac-return-fees-after-hours-drop-2026?depth=long&lang=en\nVerified: 2026-05-30\nCONRAC facility facts: Port of Seattle / official operator disclosures cited in editorial ledger.\n\nOperational note: SeaTac CONRAC (3150 S 160th St, SeaTac, WA 98188) serves all major brands from one shuttle loop (Islands 1 & 16).
