5 Advantages Of Using An Airport Parking Reservation Service

Posted on

What do you do with your car when you're on a trip? Rather than getting a ride to the airport, you can instead make a reservation in advance at the airport parking lot. There are a few advantages to doing this.

1. It's a Cheaper Solution

While parking at an airport is usually expensive, it's cheaper if you reserve the parking in advance. Depending on how long you're going to be out of town, reserving parking could be cheaper than having to hail a taxi both ways. If you're planning to use peer-to-peer rideshare services, it's often impossible to predict how expensive they'll be, due to additional charges during high volume times.

2. Your Car Will Be Secured

Airports have superb security, which can protect your car from a potential break-in. If you would otherwise be leaving your car parked on the street, it could be vulnerable to everything from theft to vandalism. Not only is that inconvenient, but also expensive. It can be worth a few extra dollars for the peace of mind.

3. You Don't Need to Arrange a Ride

Many flights are at very inconvenient times. If you don't want to have to ask friends or family members to disrupt their plans, driving to and from the airport just makes sense. This also means that you can schedule your flights at any time that works for you, which is a great way to save money on the flight itself. 

4. You're Safe in the Event of Delays

Flights can be delayed for a variety of reasons, ranging from weather to problems with the aircraft. Would you still be able to arrange a ride home if you're delayed by a few hours, or until midnight? Having your car at an airport terminal means you can leave at any time you get in.

5. You Won't Get Towed

In addition to thievery and vandalism, you may also need to worry about your car getting towed. Even if you're in an apartment parking lot, not moving your car for some time could lead to the vehicle being impounded. Meanwhile, as long as you have your car in a reserved parking spot at the airline, you won't need to worry about expensive towing and impounding charges. 

Not all airports have a reservation service, but many other large airports do. You can contact them in advance to find out whether it's an option. To learn more, contact your local Seatac parking reservation services.
