Great Accessibility Of SeaTac Airport Parking

By Jennie Sandoval


Driving to airports and trying to find the best place to park can sometimes be a real headache, and Seattle's SeaTac airport parking is no exception. Although there is plenty of parking, deciding where to leave your car can depend on a number of factors. Factors like the length of your stay, how much you are willing to pay, security, whether you need accessible car parks or you want to plug in your electric car.

SeaTac has many options. There is for example, the main under cover airport-parking garage, which is massive. It houses 9000 cars and vans, and connects directly to the terminal building. The prices charged to park there are considerably more expensive than in other parts of the facility. For example it costs $35 for just a day but it is very convenient.

Many people work at the air port, and rent a parking-space in the general space. This will set you back about $350 a month. If you have to park a vehicle that is over six feet ten inches high, then you will have to enter the parking garage by the South 182nd street entrance, as the regular entrance gates are too low.

There are twelve spaces only on level G provided for electric car plug-ins. This is not nearly enough in our modern world, but better than we have found in some airports which have exactly none! Accessibility car parks are handled much better and they will even make sure there is some available if you call beforehand to check, even if you are flying out very early.

People who need to park long term, have a good many other options available to them. The outlying car park services are excellent. Some take your keys, while others let you park your car, and also let you keep your keys. We prefer the latter, as then we know no one has been in our car. There is always a worry at the back of our mind that someone is out joyriding in our car, even though we know that this is not so.

The wonderful part about these services is, they drop you off right at the terminal at your section, and when you arrive home, they have a shuttle right there to pick you up and drop you back at your car. This is a great time saver, no having to negotiate the twists and turns for the taxis trying to drop off and pickup passengers. Let someone else do that kind of driving.

Some of the services allow you to collect air miles when you spend money at them. This is always a nice touch. Seeing, as you have to use some type of car park service, it makes sense to use one that will earn you something in return. Check with the car park service you are thinking of using to see if they offer this service.

Whenever we have to fly out of Seattle's SeaTac airport parking seems to be involved. Luckily, the airport is well provided with car park services. This includes the official park space attached to the terminal where they even have plugs for electric cars, to the outlying services.
