Parking Tips

Arrive Early

During peak travel times, finding a spot can take 10-15 minutes. Budget extra time if flying during holidays.

Photo Your Location

Take a photo of your parking level, row, and spot number. Large airport parking lots can be disorienting.

Payment Options

Most airports accept credit cards at exit. Some offer pay-in-terminal machines to skip exit queues.

Check for Discounts

Airlines, credit cards, and AAA members often have parking discounts. Check before booking.
