Effective Date 01/03/2012
Summary Commission consideration to dismiss the Complaint and Order Suspending Tariff Revisions and allow revised fares to become effective March 9, 2012. The company proposed increased passenger fares that would generate $505,525 (3.9 percent) additional annual revenue. The company and staff agreed to revised fares that would generate $424,429 (3.3 percent) additional revenue. The revised fares for door-to-door passengers would increase by $1.00 per reservation instead of the original $0.75 per reservation. The current $15 fare for passengers to and from downtown Seattle hotels would increase to $19 for one person instead of the originally proposed $21 for one person. Because the revised fares for door-to-door service are higher than the fares that the company notified customers, the company asks for exemptions from rules to allow the revised fares to become effective March 9, 2012, on less than statutory notice. The company provides transportation to and from SeaTac Airport for more than 400,000 customers in Pierce, King, Snohomish and Island Counties annually.
