    On-Site Airport Parking Overview

    There are several on-airport parking options available with a variety of prices depending on how close you want to park to the terminal. The best price for long-term parking is at the economy lots which will shuttle you to the terminal. There are closer options available including valet should you prefer this option.

    Key takeaways

    • Parking garages A & B are the most centrally located to the terminal and will cost you $19 / day.
    • The North and South Park Place Economy lots are the cheapest at $10/day
    • Honestly, good luck trying to understand the short term parking pricing. We tried to clarify some below but wow is it overly complex!
    • There is a 20 minute grace period at Parking Garages A, B, and C so you can park there for free if you are doing a quick pick-up or drop-off.
    • If you can find a spot in the Terminal Top Parking Lot these spots are $19 / day and all covered.
    • Valet parking is available for $3/hr or $25.00 / day.
    • Locals can use their E-PASS/SunPass to pay for parking upon exit.
    • There are cell phone lots available north and south of the terminal.
    • Oversized vehicles can be accommodated in the North Park Place parking lot.
    • Electric vehicle charging is available in the A Garage (Level 2, Row A) and B Garage (Level 2, Row P).
    • If you prefer to park off-airport on a private lot, you have a few to choose from that range in price from $6 - $13 / day depending on options selected. The Omni and Park to Fly lots have the cheapest rates last time I checked.
