This tax seems to be totally unfair, are you going to start charging a fee for private vehicles coming in to the airport as well. These buses keep vehicular traffic to a minimum. If the airport feels they are losing revenue to these offsite parking facilities perhaps they could lower their parking rates and increase their numbers significantly.

Allow for a fair, competitive marketplace! Off-site parking facilities offer a great service to their customers and help to reduce the airport congestion. I flew in and out of Sky Harbor every week 9 weeks straight and the door-to-door shuttle service was a valuable time saver.

I don't support any new fees associated with off-airport parking companies. Such companies reduce congestion at the airport drop-off locations and provide a valuable service.

Shuttle buses help relieve the traffic problem at PHX Traffic Jam Harbor. I fly out every other month using a shuttle. I have to drive in and pick up every other month and I hate driving in to pickup.

Off-airport parking companies provide a service that the airport parking CANNOT!! This is especially true for older travelers who can not walk long distances with bags. The car-to -check-in and and check-in -to car services provided by the off-airport parking companies are a must to enable us to travel by air. I support a fair fee but not one that will cause off-airport companies to become out of reach monetarily for a lot of flying customers. If Sky Harbor airport had to handle all the cars coming to and parking at the airport, the driving/parking situation would become even worse then it already is. I drive to Phoenix vice flying out of Tucson for the convenience of car to "gate" service. If I had to park and drag bags all over the airport I would go back to flying out of Tucson (where the bag dragging would be much less then at Sky Harbor). Thank you.

For what PHX charges for both on-site rate levels, they should be ashamed of themselves for ever even thinking of going after anyone else for their riches. Charging even a penny for driving through is the equivalent of a toll road, and is disgusting, arrogant and more proof of the Grand Old Party at its best. Do the overpaid few making these decisions also intend to charge themselves a fee for the privilege of driving their own vehicle onto the hallowed ground??? Dumb. Just dumb.

Let private business operate in a free and fair market. Do not put them at any more of a disadvantage than they already are.

Reimbursing costs should be enough. Please don't make this a revenue stream for Sky Harbor. Some of us can barely afford the existing parking fees.

It would seem to be a mutually beneficial relationship which is completely unreasonable and someone has to benefit more that the other. Are you kidding me?

Come on -- the airport authority seems to want to do everything possible to make it difficult for those of us who must leave home & travel frequently for a living.

Unfair competition for a service that's less convenient than on-site parking.

This seems to be an unfair fee for use of a public road.
