Honest heads-up
Deposit holds are often confused with charges. At CONRAC, holds typically release 5---14 business days after return depending on bank batching --- not instant at drop-off.
Skip-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.
Kayak averages hide CFC (~$7/day) and ACRF (11.1%) stacked on base rates. Compare all-in daily cost, not headline $/day.
Off-airport discounters save base rate but add shuttle legs and opaque fee stacks --- time-to-curb often loses to CONRAC for tight connections.
