CLT Airport Parking Options

Last updated: 11/17/2022

Charlotte Douglas International Airport

Charlotte Douglas International Airport is one of the world's busiest airports. It is a joint civil-military public international airport and is one of a small number of major hub airports that has an aviation museum on the field. CLT is also one of the few airports in the US with a public viewing area.

Terminal lobby expansions are ongoing, and the expansion project, which covers 366,000 square feet of new and renovated spaces, is expected to be completed in 2025. In July 2022, portions of the west side of the lobby expansions were already open.

Since CLT is one of the most trafficked airports in the US and a major gateway to the Caribbean Islands, there are several parking lot options.

A new parking payment system was launched in the fall of 2020 and since then, the airport has slowly transitioned to cashless transactions for its parking.

    On-Site Airport Parking Overview

    There are several affordable, on-airport lots avialable for short and long term parking. If you need to park for more than a few hours, you should expect to pay between $7 and $10 per day. If you want to valet, expect to pay either $14 or $35 per day and ask about options for additional car services such as car washes.

    Electric Vehicle Charging: There are several EV charging short-term parking spots available at CLT including spots on Levels 4, 5 and 6 of the Hourly Deck. If you are parking long-term you will need to use the Business Valet Deck to charge.

    On January 4, 2023, Pay&Go machines in the Hourly Deck were deactivated and passengers are now required to pay in cash cards for their parking. Cash can be inserted in any of the Ready Stations so it can be converted into cash cards, with a $6 service charge.

    Hotel lots

    Hotel lots allow you to park at nearby hotels and the hotel shuttle takes you to the airport.

    Before using hotel lots, I’d recommend you read more about how these lots work on my guide to airport parking, particularly the section on hotel lots here.

    You might be able to save some money if you arrange for a hotel lot in advance for parking at CLT. When I checked prices last, the lowest prices I found were $3 - $4 per day on Way, Global Airport Parking, Greenbee, and Airport Parking Reservations aggregate websites.
