The off site parking is more reasonable, friendly and a better experience. Follow their example.

I'm in for "fair" fee, however, it may only be for now. The bureaucrats will get their way someday. So much for free enterprise!

Without off airport parking, Sky Harbor would be more chaotic and congested than it already is.

I have used off site parking for Sky Harbor for over twenty years. The airport parking and congestion makes using a parking shuttle system convenient and affordable. I do not think their should be a tax on this service. The companies already pay taxes, city, state and federal.

Why tax companies that provide a service to the airport that the airport itself cannot provide?

I agree with outside parking because the mega infrastructure of the sky train is inefficient mode of transportation costing billion to travelers and tax payer.

This is a fee grab of an area that is not connected to the Sky Harbor Airport. This is an underhanded measure that needs to be stopped in its tracks now.

I already have to drive 1 hour to get to Sky Harbor. Why should I pay extra for services already over-priced.

This is not a fair tax for the service that these companies provide.

Having worked at National Car Rental in Portland when going to college I am well aware of the extremely high rates airports charge the service providers to the travelers. Clearly charging off airport providers for each trip is little more than a way to put a huge financial burden on them that doesn't need to be there. Just another cash grab by Sky Harbor.

Quit trying to make the airport a profit center for the city. It is part of the essential infrastructure just like roads.

The city is obviously trying to get income for nothing. I can see no possible reasoning for such a fee from the city. It is ludicrous

There should be no fees. Offsite services actually reduce congestion at the airport by reducing the number of individuals that would otherwise need to park at airport onsite facilities or drop off at the airport. The airport should actually pay offsite services since they help reduce congestion at the airport.

This is an invaluable service that currently is almost already over priced. This so-called fee would be passed on to the public and may even put many of the businesses OUT of business. THAT would be catastrophic for all of us!! We rely on affordable parking. Every one of us is already paying fees to the airport contained in our ticket prices. This will be double-dipping and is totally UNACCEPTABLE!

Traffic near the Sky Harbor terminals is horrendous as it is. The only thing that alleviates this situation is the fact that many people are brought in by parking shuttles, thus reducing the number of cars in the immediate vicinity. Limiting this service by increasing fees on these vendors is a ridiculous idea.

Terrible idea. If anything, the city of Phoenix should be reimbursing the off-airport parking providers for saving the city and the airport the costs of providing even more costly parking structures on the limited confines of the airport itself, plus the additional personal costs of managing and policing more lots, more equipment, more space.

Consistently good service provider. The need to increase rates to hurt local small business and its users....there has to be a better way!.
