The short answer
PDX is traveler-friendly, but do not let the pretty new terminal make you casual about timing. Check construction notices, then add shuttle time if you choose the $15 economy lot.

Ground transportation
Don’t stand at the wrong curb
Ride-app pickup uses the dedicated transportation area in the parking-garage complex. Follow the app and overhead signs because construction can alter the walking route.
On-airport rental counters and vehicles are in the Rental Car Center on Level 1 of the long-term garage complex, connected to the terminal by covered pedestrian routes.
PDX has one terminal serving Concourses B through E. Follow current secure-side signs between concourse areas; temporary closures can change the most direct route.
