What this measures: the median of per-operator median total rates for an economy car, divided across a seven-day rental. The period average is the arithmetic average of the daily rates shown in the chart. Taxes and fees are included. A day is shown only when it meets that airport’s observation-quality threshold. This is a historical record, not a forecast or booking recommendation.
