Explanation:

The question at hand involves the understanding of the Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) included in the fare calculation for an air travel itinerary. A PFC is a fee charged by airports to passengers for the use of the facilities, which is included in the cost of an airline ticket. When passengers do not complete all segments of their itinerary, they are eligible for a refund of the PFCs for the unused segments.

In this specific itinerary, we have the following segments: Baltimore (BWI) to Atlanta (ATL), Atlanta to Fort Lauderdale (FLL), and returning back the same way. The fare calculation ends with a series of codes and charges that include PFCs for specific airports along the journey. The codes 'XT14.40ZP 10.00AY 15.00XF BWI3ATL4.5FLL3ATL4.5' represent additional taxes, with 'XF' indicating the PFCs for each airport involved.

If the client returned from Fort Lauderdale by rental car and did not fly back to BWI via ATL, the unused PFCs would be for the segments not flown, which are the Fort Lauderdale to Atlanta segment (FLL3) and Atlanta to Baltimore segment (ATL4.5). Therefore, the correct answer for the unused PFCs is FLL3ATL4.5. Option c
