Airport Parking |
|
Park Air Express, my favorite off-airport parking lot has closed. Yes, it was sort of ghetto; it ran half as many shuttle buses as the larger companies; the ticket machine at the entrance was always broken; if you parked under any trees you'd get ants. However, it offered an online coupon for just $5 a day and I'm mourning the loss of my cheap parking spot. Does anyone else know of any cheap off-airport parking that is easy to access from I-85? The daily lot at the airport is up to $14! It is always a letdown to come home from a nice vacation and have to fork out $60 for parking. Where do y'all park?

Hi JA I park at the Parking Spot. It used to be Park Atlanta. It is the first on the left when I get off I-285 on Camp Creek Parkway. It was $8.50 a day last month. There are two locations. You can earn free parking although I don't know right now what the terms are. (Look on their website under the Spot Club at the top of the page.) You are issued a card to use in the machine as you enter the lot. Your data is recorded on the card and tracked to earn points. You use it as you leave instead of a paper ticket. I like the company because they are efficient and the lot is secure. With gas prices as high as they are I understand why the rate had to be raised. Often, we've been the only two persons in the van on the ride to or from the airport. As you are leaving, they give you a free soft drink or water for each person in the car. | ||||||

I will have to try that. I usually see about 4 Parking Spot shuttles go by as I wait for my Park Air Express shuttle so it definitely sounds like a step up! It's crazy that I don't bat an eye at a $14 martini but get all worked up about $14 parking. | ||||||

I use the Parking spot or the Parking spot 2, both off Camp Creek. They are very fast and cheep. They always have coupons online also. | ||||||
|
where is the parking spot located? How often do their shuttles come around? | ||||||
|
There are 2 locations. Here's the website. I think there's almost always a shuttle waiting to pick up people from the airport, so you shouldn't have to wait very long. The shuttle markings are pretty conspicuous. The cheap lot I used to use was the slowest by far and even then I never waited more than 15 minutes. | ||||||

Go to this site: www.longtermparking.com -- click on Georgia. This will show the off airport lots- addresses, cost, coupons, type parking available, etc. You can compare each lot and decide which you like. Check back before each trip, as prices and coupons do change. | ||||||

We just used the parking spot on our trip to Antigua for a week. It was only 68.00 dollars and VERY convenient. We would never park @ the airport again or anywhere else for that matter. We weren't even out of the car and the shuttle was behind us waiting to pick us up. Also on return (which was late on a Saturday night) and there was a shuttle @ the airport empty waiting on us. Much easier to get to and sooo convenient. | ||||||

Do you know if another airport parking company is now using the space where Atlanta Park Air Express was located (3437 Bobby Brown Parkway)? I live in NE Atlanta and that off-airport parking lot is the most convenient to my home. | ||||||

Atlanta Park Air Express is closed, I'm not very familiar with the area, but I know there's a Parking Spot off of Camp Creek Parkway you can use. They have couponns available online at www.theparkingspot.com, just click on the atlanta location on the map. . | ||||||

Thanks parkingprincess for the coupon info. I am going to South America for three weeks tomorrow. I always use the Parking Spot 2 on Camp Creek Parkway. Your Information may have saved me a bundle. | ||||||
