San Diego's Park Shuttle & Fly - Lot A is an off-airport park-and-fly lot at 3405 Pacific Highway, charging $13.75/day with a roughly 10-minute shuttle to San Diego International Airport (SAN). It undercuts the official on-airport lots ($15 long-term, $38 terminal) but carries a middling 3.4-star rating across 428 reviews. Fox Auto Parks, also off-airport, beats it on both price ($12.00) and rating (4.3). Pick this lot for proximity to the Terminal 1 area at a price below the official garages, not because it is the cheapest or best-rated option at SAN.

What parking here actually costs
The headline number is $13.75/day, and a 2-day minimum applies. Do the math on a real trip before booking, because the gap between options at SAN is wide.
A 5-day trip at $13.75/day runs about $69 here. The same 5 days at San Diego International Airport's official Terminal Parking ($38.00/day) costs roughly $190, so parking off-airport on Pacific Highway saves about $121 on a single week-long trip. That is the strongest case for this lot: it is a fraction of the on-airport terminal price and you are still minutes from the gates.
The comparison that hurts is Fox Auto Parks. At $12.00/day, the same 5 days costs about $60, or roughly $9 less than here, and Fox holds a 4.3 rating against this lot's 3.4. The official Long-Term Lot sits at $15.00/day (about $75 for 5 days), only $6 more than this lot for 5 days, and it carries the trust of 18,757 reviews. So the honest framing is: you save money versus the official terminal garage, you pay a little more than the official long-term lot for slightly closer access, and you pay more than Fox for a worse rating.
Getting from the lot to your terminal
The shuttle covers the run from 3405 Pacific Highway to the SAN terminals in about 10 minutes. Pacific Highway runs along the north edge of the airport near the Terminal 1 area, which is why the ride is short compared with lots farther out toward the I-5 corridor. Shuttles run on demand, roughly every 10 to 12 minutes; for return pickup you call (619) 291-1234 from the Courtesy Shuttle area.
Plan your buffer around the wait for pickup at the lot, the 10-minute drive, and the unload at the curb. The 24/7 front desk matters here: red-eye departures and late arrivals are covered, which is not true at every budget off-airport lot. If your flight lands after midnight, having a staffed desk and an on-call shuttle is worth more than a dollar or two of nightly savings.

Two patterns stand out. First, this lot is genuinely mid-priced: cheaper than Park 'N Fly, Aladdin, and both official garages, but not the floor. Second, the rating is the weak spot. At 3.4 it is the lowest-rated option in the table, and the two closest on price (Fox at $12.00 and the official Long-Term Lot at $15.00) both rate above 4.0 with more reviews behind them.
Is it worth booking
It is worth it if proximity to the Terminal 1 area at a sub-terminal-garage price is what you want, and you value a 24/7 staffed desk and security on a red-eye trip. At about $69 for 5 days versus roughly $190 at the official Terminal Parking, the savings are real and the location is close.
It is a harder sell on pure value. Fox Auto Parks is cheaper and higher rated, and the official Long-Term Lot costs only about $6 more across 5 days while carrying 18,757 reviews of accumulated trust. If your priority is the lowest defensible-quality option, those two beat this lot on the numbers.
When this is the wrong choice
Skip this lot if any of these apply to you:
You sort by rating first. At 3.4 stars across 428 reviews, this is the lowest-rated lot in the SAN comparison above. Fox Auto Parks ($12.00, 4.3) and Park 'N Fly Lot 1 ($16.95, 4.6) both score materially higher, and Park 'N Fly is the rating leader.
You want the cheapest option. Fox Auto Parks undercuts this lot at $12.00/day with a better rating. SpotHero also lists SAN daily rates from around $8 on select dates, below anything in the table here.
You are parking for one day. A 2-day minimum applies, so a single overnight may still bill you for two days. For a true one-day stay, a rideshare round trip or the official short-term option can win.
You want maximum trust signal. The official Long-Term Lot at $15.00/day carries 18,757 reviews for only about $6 more across 5 days.
How to book
Reserve a spot before you arrive rather than rolling up and hoping for space, especially around holidays and big San Diego convention weekends when off-airport lots near the airport fill. Confirm the daily rate and the 2-day minimum at the time of booking so there are no surprises at checkout. Have your flight times ready so the lot can plan the shuttle, and note the address, 3405 Pacific Highway, San Diego, CA 92101, for your map app, since Pacific Highway addresses near the airport are easy to overshoot.
Frequently asked questions
What is the cheapest parking at San Diego Airport?
Among the lots compared here, Fox Auto Parks is the cheapest at $12.00/day with a 4.3 rating. SpotHero also lists SAN daily rates from around $8 on select dates. San Diego's Park Shuttle & Fly - Lot A sits mid-pack at $13.75/day, below the official Long-Term Lot ($15.00) and far below official Terminal Parking ($38.00).
Where is the best place to park at San Diego Airport?
It depends on your priority. For curbside convenience, the official on-airport Terminal Parking ($38.00/day) wins. For the best balance of price and rating, Fox Auto Parks ($12.00, 4.3) or Park 'N Fly Lot 1 ($16.95, 4.6) lead. For proximity to the Terminal 1 area at a sub-terminal price with a 24/7 desk, this lot at 3405 Pacific Highway is in the running, with the caveat of its 3.4 rating.
Is Park N Fly the same as The Parking Spot?
No. Park 'N Fly and The Parking Spot are separate off-airport parking companies, and San Diego's Park Shuttle & Fly - Lot A is a third, distinct operator. They are independent brands with their own lots, rates, and shuttles. At SAN, Park 'N Fly Lot 1 lists at $16.95/day with a 4.6 rating; this lot lists at $13.75/day with a 3.4 rating.
Can I leave my car parked at the San Diego Airport?
Yes. You can park long-term in the official on-airport lots ($15.00/day Long-Term, $38.00/day Terminal) or at off-airport park-and-fly lots like this one on Pacific Highway, which provide a shuttle to and from the terminals. Confirm the maximum stay and note the 2-day minimum here at booking.
Excellent Location, easy access, fast service and priced right compared to other parking’s in the area. Will definitely use them again on our next trip.

The folks here are very friendly. The parking spots are pretty tight. We had to pull the car out of the spot to get the luggage in the back seat. The wait for the shuttle is pretty long, but it is clean and comfortable. Overall, it's a decent option for cruise ship parking.

As usual, I park here when I travel, which is usually every other month. While the rate has increased, they do offer a coupon on their website. The drivers & gate staff are friendly, yet professional. Today I discussed a small hiccup with the owner Rene' & he was receptive & apologetic. When I got to the exit, he had already passed the info along to Lorena & it was resolved immediately! Thats what I call customer service! Looking forward to seeing them next month. NOTE: Lorena was NOT the issue.

We’ve been using this service for 3 years with no problems at all. We do always leave extra time for the shuttle because sometimes it’s taken over 20 minutes to get a spot in one but that’s happened only once or twice. When we’ve used a third party service to book since it’s one rate for the day and no hourly we give ourselves plenty of buffer. We also had a family emergency one time and they were very kind in handling the extension. Overall it’s not the fanciest of places but for the price we think it’s right.

Convenient to the airport. Shuttle runs frequently to and from airport and upon our return, comes soon after we call, drivers have always been very nice.
No covered parking but that has never been an issue.
Coupons for a bit lesser daily rate often available online. Make a reservation! Too, follow the directions they offer to get to their lot ~ it can be confusing the first time but you will have no problems the next time!!!
Safe travels~

Have used Park Shuttle & Fly on various occasions, both lots A & B, for cruises and for flights. The shuttle is convenient, I have hardly had to wait. When you enter the lot they can see on their cameras and a shuttle is on its way quickly. On the way back to get your car you have to call them for pickup. Lots are uncovered but nothing has ever happened to my car and the lots are secured. I used a coupon that was sent to me to save a few bucks off each day. Pretty standard pricing per day. Would definitely use this lot again.

I was hesitant to book here which I did on their website due to recent poor reviews. I like to give people a chance if they are at least close to 4 stars so I did. The customer service was great actually! They even picked me up within 10 mins at 2am from the airport . The only down side and can be a big one, is the coupon that I printed off when I booked was not honored. Apparently the only coupon that is usable is the one that is currently on the website. In my case it was about a 16 dollar difference. If not for that I would have rated 5 stars.

We've used this company five times already and have been very pleased with their customer service and parking lots. Their drivers are nice and friendly. I think the most we have waited to be picked up at the airport is 30 mins and it was on holiday day weekend and the construction at the airport had just started. Their lots are secure and their prices are very fair. It's definitely cheaper than getting an Uber or lyft coming from the Southbay area to airport.

First time using this place and it was such an easy experience! The lot attendant explained everything to me on how to return and gave me a card with instructions. The drivers were friendly and showed me exactly were i needed to be at when picked up. Lucky for me they were dropping someone off when I called so I only waited like a minute to be picked up will definitely use again!

This is a super convenient place to park. Have you ever parked near the airport and came home late and had a hard time getting a shuttle? Maybe they run only run every so often, maybe they skip some times, maybe they don't come at all...this is not the place! You call them directly and they come and get you. For us it was less than 5 minutes and it was there! The driver was very nice and personable even though it was so late. So...to sum up close parking, cheap parking, convenient parking.

We visited San Diego hauling a teardrop trailer. We stayed on Mission Bay in an AirBnb while in town and COULD NOT find a place to park the trailer. We called several lots and all other attendants were confused at our request and could not accommodate. Park Shuttle & Fly employees were WONDERFUL, they were very helpful and made sure everything was as easy as it could possibly be. 5/5 they were great.
