Need advice on airport parking when traveling alone

Can anyone offer advice on the best place to park at the airport or it can be off site for a person traveling alone? My return flight comes in at 12:30 a.m. and I want somewhere where I will feel safe that hour of the morning. I have already checked out Ace Rent-a-Car, but not sure. Thanks!

I think you will be safe in the long term parking lot. If you have concerns, I%26#39;m sure the shuttle driver will either deliver you close to your car or make sure you get there. They are very friendly %26amp; helpful, especially if not too busy at odd hours like that.

I%26#39;ve used ';Park,Ride,%26amp; Fly'; before. Call when you get your luggage and they are there in about 5 minutes with a shuttle right to the trunk of your car. I%26#39;m nt exactly sure where their place is at the new terminal




Depending how long you%26#39;ll be gone and how much money is okay to spend, I would suggest the parking garage on the 3rd level as close to the terminal entrance as possible. That should make it a quick trip to your car from the terminal and probably not the area someone would choose for bad behavior. It%26#39;s $16/day. If you park in long term or economy ($11 and $7 respectively), try to park close to the shuttle drop off points; you can get to your car quicker. If you want to use a service, Metro Parking and, as mentioned above, Park Ride and Fly are two services that I have been happy with.




I agree with a previous poster. We have always used Park, Ride %26amp; Fly. They take care of everything. I haven%26#39;t been to their new location yet, but at their old one, you just pull up, and hand them your keys. You can pre-register on-line, so that all you do is give them your print out, and get on their shuttle to the airport - they have already loaded your luggage. When you get back, they pick you right up and have your car running for you at their location. So much stress avoided!




I have used Park Ride N Fly at both the old and new locations. It is very convenient. When you return, the car is warmed up for you and ready to go. You can make a reservation online. Also they have a new program where you can sign up for a rewards card that you swipe to enter and exit their lot (it automatically bills to your credit card).



In my experience, I have found that their shuttle buses run very frequently (even with the greater distance to the new terminal from their new location).
