What are the specific dollar breakdowns for the Port-mandated facility fee and Concession Recovery (ACRF) applied to base rates at the SeaTac Rental Car Facility?

When renting a vehicle from the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SeaTac) Consolidated Rental Car Facility (CONRAC), customers will notice specific mandatory charges stacked onto their base rental rate. The first is the Customer Facility Charge (CFC), which is strictly set at $7. This fee is mandated by the Port of Seattle to directly fund the design, construction, and ongoing maintenance of the dedicated CONRAC building and the associated rental car shuttle bus system. The CFC is applied on a per-day basis, up to a maximum of $35. 00 per rental transaction, which effectively caps the charge at 5 days for a single rental. The second mandatory fee is the Airport Concession Recovery Fee (ACRF), which is calculated at exactly 11. 1% of the base rental rate. This percentage-based surcharge allows the rental car agencies operating at SeaTac to recoup the substantial concession fees they are required to pay to the Port of Seattle for the privilege of operating on airport property. For example, on a base rate of $50. 00 per day, the ACRF adds exactly $5. 55 to the daily cost before taxes. Together, these fees significantly impact the total daily cost of a rental, and understanding this fee stacking is crucial for accurate budgeting.
