Car rentals
Car rental is in a separate Rental Car Center along Airport Service Rd, next to the economy parking buildings. It is accessible from the main terminal by the frequent SkyConnect train. Courtesy pick-up for off-airport car rental companies can be arranged at the red or blue luggage reclaim zones at the airport or at the 'commercial curb' at the Car Rental Center.
Public transportation
Bus stops for Hillsborough Area Transit (HART), to Tampa (Rt #10, 30, 32) and to St Petersburg & Clearwater with Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority (PSTA)(Rt #300x) are next to the Rental Car Center. Follow signs to the "remote curbside" from the Rental Car Center to reach the bus stops. HART #10 and PSTA #300x buses connect the airport to downtown Tampa. Check schedules.
