Dollar Car Rental at Seattle Tacoma International Airport

Seattle Tacoma International Airport is one of the airports found in North America, and along the western coastline of the United States of America. It serves the cities of Seattle and Tacoma, and all areas in western Washington. Many refer to it as the Sea-Tac Airport, due to its location, or by its official IATA code of SEA. It is the sixteenth busiest airport in the country for passenger traffic, and a hub for the airline carriers of Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air. There are many facilities available for arriving passengers, including several Seattle Tacoma International Airport car hire companies, such as Dollar. Dollar can offer vehicles for leisure and business travellers, and car rental rates to suit persons of various financial means.

The car hire companies of Seattle Tacoma International Airport are not located within the main terminal building, but at a separate location that is a few minutes drive from the airport facilities. In general, the airport consists of a Central Terminal, the North and South Terminals, which are the satellite terminals, and four concourses, referred to as A, B, C and D. All international flights leave their passengers at the South Terminal, while most of the other airport areas are used for domestic flights. Once passengers have collected their luggage from the baggage claim area, they can leave the terminal to find the car rental shuttles at the north or south ends of the building. The shuttles are frequently available, and operate twenty-four hours a day. It will take just five to seven minutes to reach the offices of Dollar. The shuttles are also a complimentary transport service.

Dollar Seattle Tacoma International Airport is open twenty-four hours a day, and have their cars for hire parked at the Rental Car Facility. The cars are within easy walking distance of the rental counters. Dollar’s cars can be of a smaller size, such as the Chevrolet Aveo, or larger, for example, the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Impala. The smaller cars are generally offered with lower rental rates, while larger cars seating five or more passengers will be more expensive. Luxury cars such as the Ford Crown Victoria are also more pricy. The Nissan Versa found in the Compact category is another popular choice, and sometimes an SUV is preferred to an ordinary sedan. The SUVs available from Dollar include the Subaru Forester, Suzuki SX4 Crossover, Toyota Highlander and Chevrolet Suburban. Convertibles and minivans can also be hired.

Customers of this car rental company will find the interesting Lock Low & Go category as well. It is a specialty category, but one that could prove to be very cost efficient. If this category is chosen, customers will be allocated a car that is similar in size to those in the Compact category, or a larger sized vehicle when they arrive at the rental counters. However, although the customer does not know which type of vehicle he/she will be receiving, as it could be a Compact, Fullsize or even a Minivan, it will be great value for money, because only Compact vehicle rates are charged, regardless of the type of vehicle delivered.

Other special services from Dollar include the Dollar Express Program, which is free to join by all customers, Multi-Month Rental programs and the Dollar 4Business program. Dollar Express members enjoy a wide range of benefits, such as shorter rental queues, faster reservations and easier vehicle returns. They can also take part in the Renter Rewards program, and earn free rental days. The Multi-Month Rental program is ideal for corporate clients who need a vehicle for up to eleven months. The vehicle need not be returned before the rental contract has expired, and the charges for the rental are conveniently billed each month to the renter’s credit card or Dollar billing account. The Dollar 4Business program guarantees competitive corporate rates each time a car is rented, and offers many other convenient services for business travellers.

The Seattle Tacoma International Airport car rental companies have various items of equipment for hire. Families with young children should arrange a child seat, and anyone who is unfamiliar with Seattle roads may like to hire a satellite navigation system. These items may cost a few extra dollars, but could greatly contribute to the ease of your journey. Free of charge, however, are Dollar hand controls for disabled drivers. This is a device that is used on a few types of automatic vehicles, and should be reserved in advance from Seattle Tacoma Airport. Hand controls are only permitted to be requested by a person with a lower limb disability. They are not meant for able drivers.

Dollar one way hires are also possible to arrange from the rental location of Seattle Tacoma International Airport. One way hire services are when the vehicle is collected from one location, but is then returned to another. Dollar has rental offices at most airports in the United States, and at many downtown locations as well. Hire cars may usually be driven to all areas in the state of Washington, and to areas in nearby states as well. However, cars can sometimes not be driven across the border into Canada. To hire a car from Dollar the primary renter should be 21 years of age or older, and should have a valid driving license and major credit card. All further details are available online, or from Dollar.
