Parking

  • Parking along the shoulder of Airport access roads is unsafe and illegal. If your party is not waiting for you when you arrive at the Airport, you cannot park at curbside to await their arrival. Prior to leaving for the Airport, check the status of your party's flight by contacting their airline, by calling 1-800-PHL-GATE or by checking flight information on the Airport's website.

  • A PennDOT Park & Ride Lot is available for motorists to wait, with their vehicles, until their party is ready to be picked up.

  • At the Airport, long-term parking is available in the garages and in the Economy Lot. Parking in the short-term lot is recommended for visits of less than one hour.

  • For more information on Airport parking, contact the Philadelphia Parking Authority at 215-683-9840 or check this link.

  • Numerous valet and self-park facilities are located near the airport. We have compiled a guide to valet and self-park facilities at Philadelphia International Airport.
