Parking Tips

Travelers need to keep in mind and note that there are six-foot height restrictions in the terminal garages. For this reason, those vehicles that are oversized are more than welcome to park in the Economy Lot.

If travelers are visiting for less than 24 hours, they are welcome to use the short-term parking areas conveniently located near terminals C, D, E, and F.

If you require a jump start, tire repair, or get locked out of your vehicle, airport parking offers these free services. The contact number for airport parking at (215) 683-9842 for assistance.
