Parking & Transportation
Our goal is to create a smooth airport experience for travelers from the moment you arrive until you're headed home. With convenient, affordable parking for short-term and long-term trips and various ground transportation options, we make it simple to get on your way.
Parking
Short-term and long-term parking lots are located right outside the terminal, saving you precious minutes arriving and departing.
How to Pay
When you enter the parking lot, you'll receive a parking ticket. You'll need to have your parking ticket ready at the exit gate. Either present your parking ticket to the attendant when you leave or insert in the parking kiosk. We accept cash and credit/debit card payments including Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Diners Club and Discover.
Please let the parking attendant know if you need a copy of your parking receipt and one will be provided after payment.
Pick up & Drop Off
If you're picking up or dropping off domestic passengers, please pull up to the west end of the terminal near the baggage claim area. The international passenger pick-up/drop-off area is at the east end of the terminal building. Look for "International Arrivals and Departures" signage. Parking outside these allocated areas is not permitted. Unattended vehicles not in the parking lot will be towed.
Electric Charging Stations
Electric charging stations are coming soon, although none are currently available for use.
Accessible Parking
Each lot has handicap parking spaces and wheelchair accessible ramps.
