Preparing for a trip is a mixture of finding flights, making travel plans, and packing. Planning the logistics of when and how to get to the airport depends on whether the traveler is driving his vehicle or relying on alternative methods. Driving to the airport means budgeting for extra money and time to store the vehicle until you return. Abandoning a vehicle means finding a safe and accessible place to store it. Don’t let the thrill of traveling be overshadowed by the stress of what to do with the vehicle. Use these parking tips when you travel and leave all the concerns behind.
Airport Parking
Most airports have short term and long term parking accessible to tourists. Which lot to choose depends on the length of the trip. Refer to the airport map to see the location of the terminals and gates related to the parking space. This will help avoid parking at the far end of the airport and increase walking time to get to the right terminal. Book airport parking in advance to get the best price deals and guaranteed space.
Another paid service at the airport is “Meet and Greet” parking. This valet parking service sends a driver from the parking company to meet travelers at the terminal with a trolley to take their baggage, and then park the car safely. When travelers return from their journey, a driver will meet them at the terminal in his car. This service eliminates the trouble of trying to find a parking area, carrying heavy baggage long distances, and waiting for the airport shuttle bus.

Local Parking
Parking garage giving people peace of mind when they cannot see their vehicle every day. Storing the vehicle in a local parking garage will be cheaper than at the airport. Most parking garages have attendants who can keep an additional eye on the vehicle. Ask a friend or family member to store the vehicle in their garage or driveway. Not only is it safe to park your car on private property, it saves you the daily parking fee and the concern of being towed or getting a ticket.
If traveling for a brief time, you might consider street parking. It’s not the safest option, but it should be fine for a few days. Park the vehicle in a well-lit area and avoid parking in corners or anywhere the vehicle may be hit or scratched. Also, make sure to check if there will be any parking regulations during the travel date to make sure the car is not violated and towed or fined.
Car Rental Service
When it comes to travel, money is best spent on the experience of leaving. Instead of worrying about securing a parking area that will not break the bank, use a rental car service to get to and from the airport. Ridesharing services like Lyft and Uber are convenient, fast and affordable options. Most Taxi companies offer flat fee rates to take tourists to and from the airport as well.
