Everything You Need to Know About Airport Shuttle Service

October 27, 2023

The Parking Spot airport shuttles are a central part of the way our business operates.  Our shuttle drivers differentiate us from your airport lot, which may not even have a shuttle, and other off-site airport parking companies. As the most visible part of The Parking Spot brand, our airport shuttles and drivers highlight the hospitality and value for our guests.

Airport Shuttle bus picks you up

Shuttle services at different facilities vary, but in general, our shuttles pick you up at your car when you arrive. As soon as you drive in, our dispatcher will see you and notify the nearest driver that a pickup is needed and will direct the driver to you. Then, our helpful and friendly drivers will offer to help you with any bags and suitcases you have.

Once we confirm your departure terminal, we get you on your way! Mark your location in the facility with the app or the ticket locator given to you by the driver. You are welcome to tip your driver.

Catch the shuttle when you get back

Our shuttles run 24 hours a day. Locations vary, but shuttles generally circulate all day long. At peak travel times, a 15- or 20-minute wait is normal. Shuttle pick up locations are typically just outside the arrival doors.

If you arrive home to the airport during overnight hours between 10pm - 7am, please call the location where you are parked for a pickup; your dispatcher will make sure a driver is on the way.

You can use The Parking Spot app to notify the team you are back and find the shuttle pick-up locations. open the app and tap on Find My Shuttle & Pick Me Up. Once you tap that button, the location will be notified that you have arrived home and a shuttle will be sent out to you. Please feel free to tip your shuttle driver.
